what did i do?--in reality, and according to california state driving code/law/gods word--nothing. according to coronado, ca, amistillintheusa: i am a nursie, ok?, SO I WAS DRIVING A FRIEND HOME TO HIS BOAT FROM TRAFFIC COURT LAST JUNE-- AND HE TOLD ME HE FELT AS IF HE WAS GOING TO HAve a seizure, so i was going to turn left to go tto his place, but there were too many cars waiting, so i went into the parking lane to go straight, ok--not turning. all the other cars had thweir sigs to go lt--i was stopped for a non-offense in a dangerous area, despite i do not be bimbojane behind the wheel. the orig. fine was to be 200$-- i gotta save $, so i fought the principle and gave mitigating circumstances--so we all agreed on most of it, and i saved 125$ i didnot need to spend. cheepest way out, man.


i still wanna watch.

i scared myself bad today on my way home, me and a camaro (v6) wanted to duke it out for the hell of it, where both auto's, both v6's and there was nobody around, so we where stopped at a red light, both in front, i setup for a launch at 1800 RPM, me watching the other light so i know when to floor it, so i can get the upper hand, we start off the first gear dead even, i have some extra top end so i can accelerate and shift higher then him (7400 RPM) and so during second gear i start pulling away, third gear im about 1/2 ahead of him, go into fourth a little early, doing about 98, i see a cop in the oncomming lane, we both slam on our brakes and take side streets to go home, i dont know if the cop turned around and tried to follow us, or he just didnt care, but either way we got away cleen...

Holy cow! That's a "sail boat"? Looks more like a yacht! I was wondering how the heck you could live on a sail boat. It's nice! Maybe we can have a party on it after I move to Cali, and get the whole So. Cal. Z gang together.

nooo no sailing here...we swim in the ocean but we built a bridge so we didnt have to get on boats heehee

We have lots of retarded drivers over here still...we just have lots of nice back roads if you go looking

Oh and kitty might have to go into quarantine...but if you dont tell I doubt they'll know

ive always wanted to try and jump a two lane road, but its just a little scary. if you had a ramp you could setup to give you enough air and if you could get enough speed..

now, hoov, ya KNOW yer not gonna get asny snow where you are. snowy--stay alive until your out of school, at least! the girls watch the antics you describe because they wonder if you'll live thru it, and do you need a nurse or doctor, hospital or morgue when you are done playing. girls cannot resist taking care of broken boys. go figger.

sounds like fun, if the snow is deep enough! in upstate ny, we had a place that was a dirt road, no one could useit in the winter without ashes and sand and shovels--and a football team to work them! but we were too young then to dream up anything so fun--too bad--we coulda scared s--t outa gramma!!!(that was always way too easy, tho')
