Easy peasy. Marks today, gone tomorrow. Duh.

A bill that would allow people in the country illegally to get a California driver's license cleared its final legislative hurdle Thursday night and is on its way to the governor.

First, I imagined this was an ette, & there would be calls for pix. Then the image shattered....

Hi, Sherry. "the merge from Northbound 169 onto Westbound BA Expwy, so you know how stupid this guy was."

Must be a Stupid Zone. They should put up signs. I've encountered suicidal pedestrians trying to cross 169 at night.

"The MFM doesn't need a dogshit shield law. Those fucking quislings... mentally ill cocksuckers...undisguised propaganda they churn out.....

Except for the Osages attacking our settlement when we barely made it out of the fort in the station wagon....

I remember Fritos and bean dip and Friday night TV, wild wild west? Man From UNCLE? That show about the bumbling superhero. Apparently I had better digestion those days.

Now she can add bats with crushed lungs.
