Scruit

I'm certainly no expert on divorce, but I would consider that to be a dubious claim. In order for the vehicle be at risk in the divorce it has to be joint property. The sale of joint property is stricly controlled during the divorce and any such sale during (or leading up to the commencement of??) divorce proceedings would result in either a beatdown from the judge or a ruling that the spouse is entitles to half the proceeds (or half the value if the judge believes the sale price was stupidly low, like selling the car to your parents for $1) I do know a guy who was going through a divorce and both parties were told not to dispose of joint property. The transmission on his car went out and he traded the car on a new one. It *was* in joint names and the dealer promised to get the wife to countersign the title. The signature was forged instead, and the wife objected to the sale. The judge gave my friend an almighty beat down at the next hearing - even though he didn't forge the signature himself, he disposed of the car in violation of a court order. He kept the new car, but it cost him an additional $7k.

Much the opposite. According to this article: http://www.ibmwr.org/otech/deerw.html (my emphasis, to provide continuity)

Isn't that like riding a bike with no gasoline? The only reason I don't carry is my company expressly forbids it... and I have to pick up my son from school. One will fire me, the other will jail me.

My boy is 7, will be 8 in 4 months. Tall and skinny. He wears: - FF helmet (no modulars in his size that I could find) - Dirt bike boots (high ankle, almost to his knee, metal toecap great shin and ankle inversion/rollover protection - Dirt bike knee pads - Home-made overpants (Bought a pair of heavy jeans two sizes too big, unpicked the seams down the outside of the legs and sewed a zipper all the way down the outside of both legs. Took me 2 hours and cost $20 for the jeans and $10 for the zippers) He wears these on top of his regular jeans. Couldn't find off-the-shelf overpants in his size. - Dirt bike gloves with padded heels and armored knuckles - Mesh jacket (ladies XS I believe) in grey with armored shoulders/back/elbows. It has cinches for the waist but he actually needs those because he's so skinny. He didn't ride with me in the cold last season so he only has a mesh. He start to not enjoy it below 50F at highway speeds. - Scala teamset intercom so we talk while we ride. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uN2qShiHkK0

Whn you say "we" you mean you saw that youtube video? or you were there to see it in person?

Meh, just cram a mini-maglite up his nethers and leave it turned on.

Yep, I'm a reformed looter. If you saw the kind of crap I saw then you'd videotape too.

Accoriding to my math 15 feet at 60mph takes 0.17s to cover. Less that a quarter of a second from eating pavement is pretty close in my book.

Not after that.

You don't? ($60 ebay dashcam, for those days when deer jump out at you, or you get hit by a cager who then runs and leaves you with a 'failure to control' ticket)

Well, I had about 15 feet at 60mph. That's why it's pucker factor 7/10 not 9/10.

Are you volunteering?

Moral of the story 1: If you ride a bike with a gun visible then the sheep will be scared and may call the police. Not right, not fair but that's the reality. Moral of the story 2: FSTs are like having sex with a gorilla. Once you get started you ain't stopping till it's done or else there will be hell to pay. Moral of the story 3: If you know you are drunk and do poorly on the FSTs and the officer asks for a blood/breath/urine sample then it's probably better to bite the bullet and give the sample versus refusing. You really need to consult with a lawyer, though. If you are sober then refusing to blow is like shooting yourself in the foot - you give them plenty evidence that you are impaired and then withhold the one piece of evidence that would exhonorate you? Stupid, stupid, stupid. Moral of the story 4: If you F-up the FSTs and then blow a .03 you are NOT out of the woods. Now they're wondering if you're on weed, meth, bath salts or something else they can't test for. OVi isn't just booze. Moral of the story 5: I'll do the breathlyser or provide a sample for drug testing any time, but I won't do FSTs (Except HGN). Like a polygraph they are considered to be highly accurate by their proponents but even if they are 99% accurate that's still 1 in 100 people they get wrong. No offense to the police or anything (much the opposite, my sister-in-law is a traffic cop and administers FSTs all the time) but I suck at performing physical tasks well under extreme fear and pressure. Doesn't matter if it's sparring, soccer or whatever. We always worry about the poor guy kicking for a 50 yard field goal with 0:02 left in the 4th? If that was me I'd miss and probably take out one of those yellow guys who look at the crowd instead of the game (who are theose folks anyway?)

It went that way for you. Another person could wind up going through it dffierently. There's lots of variables. I knew a lady who got a speeding ticket in a small town in western Ohio. It was her second in a year so she had to appear. The judge asked for her plea and was told Guilty. The judge told her that she had to plead not guilty and get the local public defender otherwise she'd be jailed (speeding, remember). She entered a not guilty plea and hired her own lawyer (not the public defender) who appeared on her behalf, entered the guilty plea in her place. The same judge fined her the standard rate and that was then end of it - no more mention of jail time. Her lawyer thinks the judge was trying to drum up business for the public defender. Technicall, yes, you can go to jail for speeding based upon multiple offenses - but who does, honestly? Now, does that mean that anyone who gets a speeding ticket in a small town is going to go to jail for it? Or even be threatened with it? No. That was her own personal experience (which she will tell you is "how it works").

Haven't tried FF but Chrome works well. I heard FF doesn't work as well as Chrome for this.

They're keeping it alive, apparently. We need to buy it and put it in a big pit outside the courthouse downtown - then we'll feed it convicted child molestors.

I came for the lulz and was sorely disappointed.

Doesn't work in IE it seems. I can try FF and chrome when I get home.

Can we compromise? Catfish!

They make more sense now I see the state flag. Now, what about that state flag?? Sheesh!

Just because it's different doesn't make it good. Eating cat for dinner would be "different" too. Just because I don't like them doesn't mean nobody is allowed to like them. That's just my opinion.
