Indeed. If only he had a case for illegal prosecution.

That makes no sense at all. You're not taxing the car, you're taxing the transaction. Now that being said, the fact that they tax a private, non business-to-consumer party transaction just because it's got an engine just makes me all stabby. Basically what I came here to say. If I've been making a decent income, why in the hell would I reject money from a government system that I've been paying into for 40+ years? Some noble sense that "I have too much money?" Screw that, I've had it forcibly taken out of my pay for almost half a century, you best believe I'm going to cash that check.

I love you. And xkcd, but you more.

see Judd, even though you tried to crap all over my thread, I still man <3 you. happy birthday peeps!

just because I'm being vindicated doesn't mean that you can get all emo in my thread.

I SAID LOCK IT UP!

I'm fat and lazy, it comes with the territory. It's the thought that counts. Lock it up if you like.

what the fuck?! everyone is staying at different hotels. I've got a room for Fri-Sat at the Sheraton downtown. Still nothing in the way of tickets, but I was told that finding them at the race wouldn't be a problem.

Can't believe no one made a b-day thread for you yet, but happy birthday man!

anyone want to just do dinner?

It's funny that people who post such things usually sprinkle a little "I'm a retired cop from some po-dunk village you're never heard of" just to give the piece an air of authoritarianism. How cute. I've never been stopped on the bike since 2006, but after Ottawa Hills I'm jumping off that thing as soon as I bring it to a stop and asking to see the cop's hands. I no longer automatically assume that the completely random stranger that happens to have a badge on their chest and a loaded weapon (or two including the taser) on their hip is benevolent and has my best interests in mind.

Anyone from Columbus going up have a extra seat?

I think I can make this, need to find some parts for the Beretta. Sunday would probably be better.

global thermonuclear shenaniganry.

this is how it's going to work out *chomp*

oh, you got money for stupid smileys, where's my money?

"In case anyone's wondering, the plaque for the alternates is in the ladies room."

Viper: Good morning, gentlemen, the temperature is 110 degrees. Wolfman: Holy shit, it's Viper! Goose: Viper's up here, great... oh shit... Maverick: Great, he's probably saying, "Holy shit, it's Maverick and Goose." Goose: Yeah, I'm sure he's saying that.

and you asshole... you're just lucky to be here!

...

comes with free Maverick helmet and a speaker that plays Danger Zone with every tune.

Wow, jail time? Seriously? You can make him clean ballpark bathrooms (and I would expand it to seedy nightclub bathrooms) for the next 6 months, but instead he has to be hauled off to jail. No wonder 10% of the entire US population is behind bars.

Picked up a pair of the Skullcandy asym's. These things fit beautifully, they should hand them out with every helmet. Highly recommend.

This ought to be EPIC.

Its 10:41pm here man, I'm trying to get shitfaced for my redeye flight
