Thought for Today: "Go on failing. Go on. Only next time, try to fail better." - Samuel Beckett, Irish playwright and author (born this date in 1906, died in 1989).
He was ahead of his time.
Hmmm, you know, walking is actually falling forward and catching yourself 1 step at a time right?
Good morning all!
That's pretty deep and a lot to think about. Good morning, Sam.
Just don't attempt to chew gum at the same time.
never again!  already learnt that lesson.
Plus it's Friday the 13th, so best not to even leave your chair.
Tempted fate and went to the DMV this morning on the way in.  Was out in 15 minutes, amazing!
Mid month is the key.

You must have looked at my work load for the next week... not leaving the chair for a while.  even if I could pull these pesky chains off that they're using to hold me here...
as far as Friday the 13th, they'll NEVER find out about my Knights Templar connections!

That's what I was thinking, but trying to apply common sense to these kinds of things rarely works out...

And not during the summer when the teens are in there getting their permits/licenses.
At our local site, they do the driving test on a closed course.  Always entertaining to stop an watch a little of that action when there.  Permits and licenses are also handled on the other side of the building.
Why would the summer be busier?  Most here get their permits on their birthdays.

Summertime the kids are out of school and taking their driving courses, tests, and getting their permits.  Much busier at the local DMV offices during the summer for that reason.  Birthdays are only a threshold of eligibility these days, old timer.

I've always liked a number of Perdomo offerings, but they sure have gotten expensive!  $50 for 10 of the Perdomo Reserve 10th Anniversary Champagne Epicure.

@NJDave: Get your hands on the EPC Encore yet?
Actually just ordered, so will be a bit before sampling.
Pretty pricey at Famous, average $105/box
$76/box shipped on their auction site
I paid the same at Atlantic...$76.95
Got the Celestial (6 1/8 x 50).  The smaller toro.
I marked those to watch, won't know the price until the auction opens tomorrow

Yea, but here written part of drivers ed is done in school.  Required (but now private and not school affiliated) driving instruction is scheduled.  You get your permit after the written, driving classes are scheduled and they also schedule your driving test on your birthday.  I presume you can defer to a later date, but that is the default scheduling.

Speaking of Famous...I asked the other week, but don't remember if anyone answered...
Has anyone tried the AJF Indomina.  First I've heard of it, appears to be a Famous exclusive.
(so AJ is two-timing CI !)
