Yes, it was obvious from the context/content that I was making the whole thing up. /sarc
No, no one accused me of writing fantasy. They called me a LIAR. Do you know the difference?
Don’t move. If you do, get rid of your car!
Security only applies to you & me, not to Obama. That is the real story. Peons get put through the ringer, while Obama flaunts any & every rule & law that suits his fancy.
When you come to Maryland, DO NOT go to the MVA.
Go to one of the tag and Title places and pay the extra money to have it done there.
Take cash, for you have to pay the 5% tax on what the car is worth. Yeah I know you paid that when you bought it, well , you have to pay it again. The tags are for 2 years and it isn’t cheap.
A trip to MVA is at least a two hr. wait so if you go take your lunch. You will probably have to make two or more trips to MVA. and if the phone rings for one of them be prepared for another hour while they talk to their girlfriend on the phone.
You got that right. We brought birth certificates, marriage license, passports, utility bills (proving address), tax records, proof of insurance, drivers licenses, etc. It was worse for my wife who is a naturalized citizen. She had to show every document tracing name change, naturalization, etc. You would think that Florida would be aware that hispanics use father's and mother's surnames, right? Wrong.
My son and I needed copies of our Social Security cards. About 3 hours waiting at the SS office to find out that a passport was not proof of who we were--"They're expired!"--"Yes, but we're not!"
After 4 visits we finally got license plates, DLs and registrations. However, the taxes were miscalculated and one of the DLs had the wrong name--reissued. As the writer suggested, you're probably better off claiming you're an illegal alien.
But show up to vote.
Therein lies the difference. 24 or so years ago I switched from NY to DE - not a problem. 10 years ago, switching from DE to VA - major hassle.
I’ve been viewing the comments and I pray you aren’t headed for the ceiling fan. btw ... the rope will tangle if the fan is on. Oops, forget that last sentence. I truly want to help. I have a manual for these types of situations. I do have to find my manual first though. Could I get back to you in about six weeks? I understand it is government under obamacare.
Unfortunately, while the part about the third grade teacher is satire, the rest is right on target. I have to admit getting my car registered in Southlake, TX was a lovely experience. Quaint building and kind people. Getting my passport was a whole other story, snotty people that really didn’t want to be bothered doing the paperwork so they told me I needed a new birth certificate. Mine met all the requirements listed on the government web site, which I had a copy of, but they still refused it raised seal, mother and father’s complete names and all. Tough to be at the mercy of government employees.
Yeah, I think I know the difference. Do you know what “humor” is? “Wit?” Obviously I’m doing it wrong....
Could just refer them to the NSA .... they’ve got all the info on everybody.
Isn’t it wonderful living in the Land of the Free?
I saw no humor in being called a liar. To this day I see no humor in it. On the upside, several of those who so designated me have since been banned. One or two have simply drifted away/stopped posting. Obama-apologists can fool some of the people some of the time, but their true colors show eventually.
I wasn’t there. I didn’t call you a liar. But I’m sorry it scared you so badly. Maybe in a few years the pain will heal. But, you’re right, the fools eventually show themselves, and they go.
I’m staying here; ain’t moving again.
Some people on here can be mean and rude. I’ve encountered this many times. It seems like no matter what I post there’s always a few who take jabs at me, criticize or just call me names. I’ve developed a thick skin, and whenever I post anything I’ve written I brace myself for the attack. Fortunately, most people on here are just fine, but don’t let the “few” get to you.
I’m not moving again; this is where they’ll plant me. My sister just retired here from CA, after 40yrs with K-P, and I can’t wait to see the hell she’ll have to go thru. Like a big brother, I’ll help her get thru it somehow. She gave her car away before she left, and flew back ahead of the moving van.
‘But I’m sorry it scared you so badly. Maybe in a few years the pain will heal.’
Did you mean ‘scarred’? I wouldn’t characterize it that way. I wd call it an eye-opening experience into the nature of the anti-birther movement. Facts are not their stock & trade. They deal in propaganda. Anything that challenges their propaganda is ipso facto a lie.
To be honest, I’m profoundly glad for that experience. It enabled me to comprehend the anti-birther movement better than any other experience could possibly have done. Yes, it angered me. But the insights I gained far outweighed the downside. Bottom line: I don’t regret it at all. (Though I will never see the humor in it. That doesn’t mean I’m ‘scarred’. It just means it wasn’t funny.)
People will refuse to believe this regardless how much evidence you put in front of their face.
