Traffic School in your future???

 If you are like me & get the occasional traffic ticket, check out the site below....
                         ClickitAway.com

I found the content to be interesting & to the point.  The course is delivered via both text & video, and you can leave the audio on or mute & read the content yourself. 

The course takes around 6 hours plus a few breaks.  You can go back & review the material you have already covered at any time.  You also have three attempts at the exam (but believe me, you will only need one....). 

The exam is a simple 20 item test with common sense questions and straightforward answers.  None of the usual ambiguous questions that leave you wondering when they mentioned the info during the course. 

You have up to 90 days to complete the course (Yep, you can even stop & restart the course at your convenience!) and the price is right ($29.95).

Trust me, this beats the Blockbuster video method and most classroom taught courses, hands down.

"A New Direction For America"

This note from my friend Jim (& his wife Jill) in Houston REALLY nails it!! 
>
>
>
The Democrats now promise "A New Direction For America".

The stock market is at a new all-time high and America's 401K's are back. A new direction from there means, what?

Unemployment is at 25 year lows. A new direction from there means, what?

Oil prices are plummeting. A new direction from there means, what?

Taxes are at 20 year lows. A new direction from there means, what?

Federal tax revenues are at all-time highs. A new direction from there means, what?

The Federal deficit is down almost 50%, just as predicted over last year. A new direction from there means. what?

Home valuations are up 200% over the past 3.5 years. A new direction from there means, what?

Inflation is in check, hovering at 20 year lows. A new direction from there means, what?

Not a single terrorist attack on US soil since
9/11/01. A new direction from there means, what?

Osama bin Laden is living under a rock in a dark cave, having not surfaced in years, if he's alive at all, while 95% of Al Queda's top dogs are either dead or in custody, cooperating with US Intel. A new direction from there means, what?

Several major terrorist attacks already thwarted by US and British Intel, including the recent planned attack involving 10 Jumbo Jets being exploded in mid-air over major US cities in order to celebrate the anniversary of the 9/11/01 attacks. A new direction from there means, what?

Just as President Bush foretold us on a number of occasions, Iraq was to be made "ground zero" for the war on terrorism -- and just as President Bush said they would, terrorist cells from all over the region are arriving from the shadows of their hiding places and flooding into Iraq in order to get their faces blown off by US Marines rather than boarding planes and heading to the United States to wage war on us here. A new direction from there means, what?

Now let me see, do I have this right? I can expect:

The economy to go south,

Illegals to go north,

Taxes to go up,

Employment to go down,

Terrorism to come in,

Tax breaks to go out,

Social Security to go away,

And health Care to go the same way gas prices have gone… 

But what the heck !

I can gain comfort by knowing that Nancy P, Hillory C, John K, Edward K, Howard D, Harry R and Obama have worked hard to create a comprehensive National Security Plan, Health Care Plan, Immigration Reform Plan, Gay Rights Plan, Same Sex Marriage Plan, Abortion On Demand Plan, Tolerance of Everyone and Everything Plan, How to Return all Troops to the U. S. in The Next Six Months Plan, A Get Tough Plan, adapted from the French Plan by the same name and a How Everyone Can Become as Wealthy as We Are Plan. I forgot the No More Katrina Storm Plan.

Now I know why I feel good after the elections. I am going to be able to sleep so much better at nights knowing these dedicated politicians are thinking of me and my welfare.

Thanks Jim - 'Right down the line...

Nothing surprises me anymore....

 BTW, who really cares about the pizza parlor accepting Pesos? 

Border town businesses have dealt in that grey market for the last two centuries (at least...). 

After living in the pseudo-Tijuana world of Southern California, for the better part of twenty years, nothing surprises me anymore....
