OK, GUYS, LET'S S ROLL!!
I thought Maybe a good way to begin tonight's discussions would be for us to share about some of the best pranks and jokes that we either played on someone,(or someone played on us) when we were younger(or nowadays, for that matter)
Also, we could share about some of the crazy things we used to do, when we were younger(or perhaps still do) that were seen as fun at the time, but look foolhardy to us today.
I'll start things off, and share about one thing I did about 20 years or so ago, when I was 18-19. I would go on little "scenic routes" as I used to call them. (keep in mind that in 1986-87 gas was WAY less than $1.00 a gallon). Now, I did not just drive around aimlessly, but I had a friend named Paul with me. And Paul was a LOT more daring than I!! while I drove, Paul tossed bottles, cans, eggs and fireworks out of the car, mainly at road signs, but also at a few mailboxes. I egged him on, and thought it was a LOT of fun!! Paul conned me into believing that I was not doing anything wrong, since I was "just driving". (I just have to chalk that up to youthful stupidity...) In reality, I would had been the ONLY one to get into trouble had we been caught, because PAUL WAS ON HOUSE ARREST at the time, for a B&E that he and some others had been involved in , AND he was only 17!! SO, had we gotten caught,(and in early '87 we ALMOST did!!) I would had gotten the book thrown at me, for vandalism, littering, contributing to the delinquency of a minor, and who knows what else!!
I'll reserve the stories about me messing with gunpowder, acid, gasoline,lighter fluid and fireworks for another time!!! (He....He... He..)
SO... Does anyone else care to share anything(that the statue of limitations has expired on !!) LOL!!

I wish they would pass such cell phone laws here. Eventually I think it will come to that.

Tell me about it!
I dumped the hands-free set and gave it to my parents about a month ago--who use similar phones.
Now I just suck it up, bite the bullet, and pray the police don't pull me over...;)

Just wait until you get out into the real world.
It is no bowl of cherries, that's for sure.

Okay.
I just saw a commercial for a NEW Steven Segal movie… and just wanted to LAUGH.
Has anyone see this advert, yet? Eeek. That guy has become a parody of himself. Every time I see him on the TV I think of Will Sasso from MAD TV.
To: pcottraux
Great! I know absolutely nothing about graphics. Except, thanks to you, I can actually post a picture without putting it in Photobucket first.

But the person in front of you might check their rear-view mirrors and see you. And they'll be like, "What in the world...are they talking to themselves??? There's no one else in the car!!! Sweet monkey dumpling, I'm in front of a complete screwball nutcase!!!" And they're so distracted by what they think is your insanity, they're not watching the road. Ultimately, it usually causes a 19-car pileup.

Look forward to getting up about 6 AM five days a week and not getting home until 5 PM or later on those days. And you always have to sweat it if you will still have a job tomorrow and how you will pay all the bills you have if something goes wrong.

I used mine several times last night. Trying to get hold of the guy I was supposed to meet. Then, after that was a bust, to call home and let them know I was coming. I do NOT make unnecessary calls, to just chit-chat, though!!
Mine HAS to be in my van, as it needs to be plugged in, the battery is about dead and will hold only a couple of minutes. A new battery is over $40(MORE than most phones) One of these days, I will get a new phone. I want my mother to have one, too.

Ha ha, yeah, Steven Segal became a pretentious self-parody years ago.
You know, Steven Segal once beat up Chuck Norris. Then he woke up...to a roundhouse kick in the face.

Oh, I think the real world should be a lot more scared of me. Didja notice my ambition is to be the next Karl Rove? I've already made enemies at school just for thinking like a conservative. For some reason, that actually surprised some liberals.

Then after that,inclined towards the law school at the University of Wisconsin.
I know a childhood friend who's at Marquette, and a teammate at MSOE. Cross-town rivalries are already starting to foment ;)

I used to be a pizza delivery boy. I can't honestly say that I have no idea how delivery boys survived before cell phones.

The problem with this is if you pass just a ‘cell-phone’ law, it wouldn’t cover all the other distractions like putting on makeup, reading the newspaper, eating, disciplining the kids, fiddling with CD’s...etc. There are 1001 things that distract us from driving. How do we begin to write this law?
To: Rca2000
I got my backup phone on ebay which included the charger for about 18 dollars, OK it was second hand but for a backup that was fine maybe you could find a battery on ebay for your phone.

Oh, I'm already worrying about paying my bills. My parents stopped paying for anything when I first left for college at 18. I'm paying off school loans, doctor bills, books....
