Yeah I don't get wasted. I get a good buzz going and maintain. I'll switch to soft drinks if I start getting too far gone. Just like a good buzz.

I was rough, but they have some time to adjust. Both of us will be close until next August.

I will, taking this time to get closer to them. Taking them to the amusement park in two weeks, should be a blast!

It has been better for me, just worried about them now. Sure they will be fine, just going to be rough when we move and their mom stays in Germany.

Nope! Not my concern until the girls are involved. I have given her my advice, but she will do what she wants.

Good morning from traffic court! I should be asleep but, No! Someone feels the need to set No drivers license ticket for jury trial! Makes no sense at all.

It's also needed for them to be able to reflect a laser off of and gives a more accurate reading. This is especially so on black cars because the paint isn't reflective enough to fire the signal back and give a strong enough reading or whatever. This is what I read on the interwebs at least.

You just might skate that one after the snafu in the legislature (they forgot to replace the penalty for it in the revision) although there is technically a cover all penalty.

There are plenty of places to reflect the laser besides the plate.
