june

It is June 3rd -- and spring has sprung.

I have just returned from a drive down to Florida through Savannah and back through Charleston. Great trip -- lots of driving but in a great car which made the driving most of the fun.

So what's new. A heck of a lot. I really should consider a blog to be a daily diary -- but then again -- diaries are created as a personal reflection and what a waste of time. I had created this "thing" to allow people to access information that they would not otherwise have access to -- but then I am told that some of my postings are actually humurous and others are educational. Hey -- what ever turns you on.

have a great day

ok - so I haven't posted for a while. Probably because either I was too busy or had nothing of value to say.

sometimes the most intelligent part of a conversation is silence.

anyway, I have nothing to say right now -- nothing, nil, nada, gunesht, zippo, niente -- sooo bye for now

and the magic number appearing on my Notice of Trial for "allegedly" speeding; including the fine, costs and Victim Surcharge is

$5.01

unbelievable!! If anyone can get a speeding ticket with a fine less than $5.01 I would be amazed.

the over and under is now $25.00 on the fine for speeding.

summons

For those with a very vivid imagination -- sorry to disappoint you but on the over and under betting which started at $100.00 the answer is -- the total charges -- fine, costs and victim fine surcharge are less than $100.00

the new over or under bet is $50.00 Over or under $50.00???

court attendance

I have received a summons to appear in court for an "alleged" speeding infraction. You will never ever guess the amount of the fine if I choose not to appear in court. I have plead not guilty and received the summons. The amount is absolutely ridiculous. I will post the amount in a couple of days.

This is unbelievable.

Way too much snow on the ground, and while it is nice to see -- it would be nicer if it was gone within two days. But alas, it is freezing outside and I am looking forward to Spring sometime hence.

But before that -- I have serious business. First, as Santa Claus again this year - and dancing to a melody of "swing, cha cha, rhumba and then the twist". Way too much pressure!

And then some serious Christmas shopping; overdue office work, blah, blah, blah.

anyway -- happy holidays.
