If you haven't already fought it I might be able to help you out.

Nope in Oneonta driving a friends car (whopping 43). He was able to plead the ticket down although doesn't quite yet know what the fine will be. As long as his license stays clean that's what counts and a fine will teach him a lesson. My first speeding ticket was only a couple of years ago in Piermont. Boy was that expensive to get changed to a parking ticket (and it was 31 in a 25 zone!)

I can see how that would work!;)

A check of the cabinet revealed that I spoke too soon. I ate too many Cheez-Its when I came home from work the other night. This has been placed on teh list for next week's days off.

I knew that is what you would decide and I think a wise choice. Certainly nothing bad about the weather here either! Pretty soon he will be 18 and your wings can grow much bigger!:D

I was going through pictures we took last week in the Bluebonnets outside of Houston and found this one particularly funny, so I had to share.

Our dog is just about as bad as a kid when it comes to getting a good picture. In this one, she closes her eyes at just the right moment. :rolleyes: At least it looks like she's smiling.

I just know that while son can't 'appreciate' any of what I'm doing right now -- it will make a difference to him -- in the long run.:cool: It's the karmic thing!;)

So I've made a scientific observation tonight. No wine for 5 days because of the bronchitis/pneumonia and I developed a terribly stiff neck and could barely turn my head. Two glasses of Cabernet and I can move my head with out pain!! ViVA Cabernet^^^

While waiting to hear the outcome of my criminal justice major and his first speeding offense I was reminded of this handy website to locate speed traps. Speed Traps

There's an app for the iPhone - think it's called trapster.

YAY!^

I am tempted to start on drinks -- but think it's not a wise move, at this point! :rolleyes: I need to sit with this 'stuff' for a bit & let it move!
