Yeah; some cops will honestly find anything to ticket you for. After all, one of my sister's friends got a ticket for "Failing to come to a complete stop during a turn". The funny thing about that was how right after that guy got the ticket, the officer did the exact same thing that guy was just ticketed for.

Got to love the police force in my town...

well, the police in the town over pulled my cousin out of a movie theater and made her cry for no reason. :\

I generally have little faith in my town's police force as it is

When I got into a wreck in midsummer last year (It was a very minor fender-bender; nothing happened to my car aside from the brakes locking up and the loose gravel on the road functioning as ball bearings, while the people I hit ended up with a slightly cracked rear bumper), the police officer jumped to the conclusion that I was texting while speeding in a construction zone (Which it wasn't; the construction zone was a good 3 miles up the road from where the wreck occurred) and refused to hear my side of the story out; instead writing me a $250 ticket that was due before my next payday and causing me to have a complete emotional breakdown once I got home because of trying to figure out I was going to get that ticket paid in time.

Thankfully, my sister was able to lend me some money to help pay for it in time, because I was close to parting ways with Asagi to stay afloat; something I knew I'd regret if I had gone through with it.

...But enough about the depressing crap; let's move onto a subject that's happier. Something like...I don't know; monkeys or something

You know, I though of something completely random while we're on the subject of cars: if one where to drive backwards, but going with the flow of traffic, it is illegal or not?

Very illegal.

VERY.

*CJ major whistles into the topic*

Awesome kitty is awesome!

So it's less then a week before I ship off to Harper's Ferry and I still don't know if I have internet. No TV though, so still stockpiling books and anime for the summer. Whole stack of new dollar anime too and a book of quizzes for (your) fictional characters.

Chocofreak13 · May 16, 2011, 10:35:59 PM

you'd better exchange cell phone numbers with someone, so you'll know what's going on. :\

Bella · May 16, 2011, 10:46:02 PM

*clings to Stewart-kun and preemptively sobs* ;_____;

If they don't have TV I can't imagine they'd have internet. >>; I'll send you my phone number + po box info. D:

Chocofreak13 · May 16, 2011, 10:47:16 PM

will send cell number upon request.

stewartsage · May 16, 2011, 11:02:17 PM

No, they have TV. I just have to pay for cable, and broadcast channels are.... expected to be iffy. My division commander said we had internet in the building because the office below had it. This may involve hacking in CAT5 cable to get internet.

I appreciate the offer Kari, but I don't have much cell time. I have your (and Bells') address though, so I'll make sure and write.

Nichi · May 16, 2011, 11:12:51 PM

@stew: I can't really do much, but I can attempt to build you a satellite dish out of a paperclip and some clay. Although, how you'd get it to work to access the internet is the part I haven't figured out yet...

Chocofreak13 · May 16, 2011, 11:19:26 PM

@stew: kay. i haven't gotten snail mail that wasn't college crap, medical appointments or coupons in months! ^^
@pentium: trying to channel mcgeyver, huh?

Haaaaack awaaaaay. >W<

And yes that's why I don't use my cellphone often... my current plan is only 100 minutes a month, and those tend to get used up quite quickly. =__=
