They're still drunk....I came within inches of running one over a couple nights ago when he jumped out behind a parked car causing me to swing out into the other lane to miss him. Bonus points for wearing all black clothes and not having lights on

I never thought about being able to post mail from my own mailbox. That is cool.

What amuses me is helmet laws. Up in Maine, if you ride a bicycle, you need to wear a helmet, but cops will only "enforce" it for those under 18. You can ride a motorbike without a helmet though, because the bikers association is so big they were able to vote it down

I've tried, on numerous occasions, in a couple places here in MA and when we lived up in Maine...not once has it ever worked.
I know they should pick it up, but they just don't bother.

I was walking across Grand Island NY once and a police car pulled up and asked me what I as doing. I told him I was going for a walk. Then he wanted to know where I was coming from and where I was going. Because walking, as we all know, is the sort of thing terrorists do.
