So driving with snow on your car is an offense punishable by law.

Do you like to gamble, Eddie? Gamble money on pool games?

Most likely, yes. I've never heard of anyone getting a ticket for it though. I attended a funeral last week, and the guy behind me was driving with half his windshield snow covered. I wanted to get out of my car and clear it for him, but I think he may have done it intentionally to keep his wife from seeing where he was going.

Kio,
great movie

JC,
Now you know of one. Had a good 6 inches on roof and trunk, but windows were all clear. Never occurred to me to clear roof. Isn't that what speeding is for?
Fine appears to be $25 to $75. Not undue.

I'm much more concerned with those who pile up stuffed animals along the rear window.

I prefer we go after those who lie about having an infant in their vehicle.

I think that anyone that has the infant on board should be arrested. They always drive like they don't realize anyone else is on the road, or if they do realize it, they expect you to get out Precious Peach's way because, in their world, if they slam into my parked car, it's my fault.

The sign. I don't care if a real baby is on board. They drive worse than drunks.

I'm not sure the sign does much good. Careful drivers tend to avoid other cars without worrying about who's in the car.

I despise that silly "Baby On Board" yellow warning sign that the overcautious have on the back window of their car. I thought of a good counter, that I want to copyright: A silly warning sticker that says: Baby on a Board, that includes a pic of a cute baby nailed to a board, the nail being a rusty spike driven right through it's forehead, with nice clean drops of blood flying about. Different baby pics would be used to be as gender inclusive as possible and would include all nationalities. Wouldn't want to be accused of being prejudice.

I don't indulge myself all that often if you discount my 150 bottles of cologne, but cashmere hoodies make for perfect hanging out on a cold Sunday watching football attire.

It hasn't warmed here yet. Brutal the past couple weeks.

Maybe the game will improve in the last three minutes.
