Actually I got a ticket a few months ago for going the wrong way on a one way (it wasn't posted...) I took a Safety class for that, and got deffered on the other, so I am SOL now.

I've come to a conclusion...Life is so much better on a full tank of gas!

Seems like everything runs better, and the world is just a better place in general...

It's because of that exact reason that I've started filling up more frequently (not waiting till empty)... completely psychological, but it doesn't *feel* as expensive... either that or I don't even look at the total when it's done.

Who knew driving would become so expensive.

My father told me that when he was a young kid they didn't have much money for extra things. So on Friday nights, his family would buy a pizza, since that was their favorite thing to eat, and instead of going to a movie, arcade, shoppiing, etc. they would just go for a drive. So his whole family would pile into the car and just cruise around. And that was their entertainment, and he said that they all looked forward to it every week.

Now people can barely afford to commute much less drive for recreation. It's a shame too.

sorry Houston, but I'm soooooooo glad Bush is not the first pick. This dude got owned by Texas (old news i know, but he was a non factor in that game, if it wasn't for Lendale the Horns would have put up about 50 more points lol) and he gets the heisman,the cover of ncaa football 07, and people calling him the Jordan of the NFL, ****, the dude hasn't even started a game yet! only another 14 hours or so until draft time, can't wait to see who goes where

I don't think Young will go Saints, it is frickin' ridiculous how there is no mention of him whatsoever, he is a million times the player/man Bush will ever be.
