Seriously
 

OK, I tried to start a lighthearted thread and it was hijacked and became quite serious. So serious that I gave up on following it...
Hoovie tried to start a serious thread and it was hijacked... at least three times so far!
So I have a theory. I have here started a serious thread. How long will it take to get off topic???


Seriously. :nutso

Oh, and BTW, Timmy, the worst of my driving:
I have been pulled over around 25 times for drinking and driving. The most alcohol I've ever consumed at one time was that thimble full of communion wine-less than a glass in my entire life!
Most of the times I was pulled over for drinking and driving, I was on my way to or from church... and I was not on a cell phone. Just driving.
Most times pulled over in one hour: 2. And when, on the last pull-over, the police approached my car and found me almost hysterical, they asked if I needed to take my medication. They only thought I was hysterical before they asked that!

If the speed of light slows over time, then why am I aging so quickly?
If the speed of light slows over time, maybe I'm not really speeding-the radar detectors are off!

You have to be joking about the traffic stuff.

Nope, really true. Last DWI pull over was last year... high profile vehicle, higher wind, I tend to hug the shoulder when I drive... bad combo.
Once I was pulled over in town because I couldn't find a certain building. They saw me "weaving" on the road (I was trying to shine my headlights on the street signs to figure out where I was) and pulled me over. Made me get out of the car, shined their flashlights in my face (how rude), and so forth. I couldn't figure out what they were doing. Explained that my friends and I were lost, and could they direct us to XYZ UPC? One doubled over laughing and had to leave. The other finally regained enough composure to give me directions and let me go. My friends later explained why they made me get out of the car and were shining their lights in my face.
Once I was laughing about how often I'd been pulled over for DUI when, guess what? Yep, lights came on behind us!

It was when I was pulled over twice in one hour that I was told to leave the state and never come back. I told them gladly!

My all time personal favorite was when little country me was driving through XYZ metropolis. I was pulled over for speeding. I told him, no, I was on the highway. He said, no, that I was going 55 (or whatever it was) within city limits. I leaned out the window and looked around, stunned. I said, "It can't be the city. There's trees!" I guess he was laughing too hard to write. He let me go. :D
