Ban GPS devices, think of how many children could have gotten hurt! "I have felt despair many times in my life, but I do not keep a chair for it." ~Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes Today is a gift, that is why it is called "The Present" “When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side,” I calmly say, “Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community.” - Adolf Hitler “If you want to tell people the truth, make them laugh, otherwise they'll kill you.” -Oscar Wilde Have a nice day, may God bless you :D |

At the home office one day he asked a journeyman ... "Where do I pick up my paycheck?" The journeyman replied ... " Go straight down here and take your first right then it will be your second left." Instead of waking down the hallway and following the journeyman's directions, the apprentice got in his van and proceeded to drive to what turned out to be a Dunkin Donuts. ------ |

Buy a car, drive it, no gov. intrusion, I like it. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24535335 no. driving classes are mandatory; always have been. in the fifties and sixties, it was a mere formality, but ever since then it is quite strict (they outsourced it decades ago, so the companies doing training and exams benefit from failing people). |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24535335 I've heard they did'nt have liscensing restrictions for years. Buy a car, drive it, no gov. intrusion, I like it. i can attest to the fact that Belgians are pretty bad when it comes to driving. worse than italians, if ya ask me. at least you expect retarded behavior from a car with italian plates. belgians......they lure you into thinking they're competent, then BANG. |
