Randomnessocitiation: Speedy Harry Bushes
Wednesday, October 10th, 2007 at 8:58 pm
I got a speeding ticket in the mail Saturday — one of those photo ones. I look all cute with the sun roof open and all the cartoon blur lines surrounding the car. The offense took place on 9/11 around 3:30. I couldn’t figure out why I was driving during work hours when Cameron reminded me that was the day he got out of the hospital. That’s right, I was speeding to get my man so he wouldn’t have to walk or take the bus in his painful condition.

Is anyone else playing Pepsi’s Call Your Play contest? I’m a big Pepsi drinker anyway, so I’ve been using codes to try and win an XBox 360. You simply enter the code under the cap and pick your prize. Then some clip from the video game Madden ‘08 starts and ‘determines’ whether you win or not. In the meantime, Reggie Bush is standing on the side tossing his football (not a euphemism). His footage is always the same so you can understand when I tell you that I’m sick to death of watching him pick an eye booger and wipe it on his shorts. Try it yourself and see.
Deborah Harry (of Blondie fan. Yes, her name isn’t Blondie.) released a new solo album on Tuesday called Necessary Evil. She’s 62. Imagine the shock of hearing her sing “You gotta lick it like you love it” on the song “Down And Dirty”. She’s a slutty little GILF.
I got the City and County of Denver Election booklet in the mail. There are nine issues on a minor election-year ballot ranging from tax increa… zzzzzzzzzzz…
I haven’t seen Next starring Nicolas Cage so I’ve had a hard time describing it to customers at the video store. I settled on this: “It’s about a guy who can see into the future and tries to use his power to stop Armageddon. Now if it were about him using his powers to stop the making of the movie Armageddon, THEN I would watch it.”
Humor-blogs.com wouldn’t intentionally start Armageddon, but they would sneak into a theater to see it.

I totally thought it was Hillary till I read the post!

Yeah, the picture is eerie. Almost as eerie has you being the only person to comment on this post. Did I offend everyone? If so… cool!

So wait, is that the picture of your car? Don’t they automatically negate the ticket if they can’t make out both the license plate and the driver’s face?

Still, it was nice of them to send you a photo. You should have it put on coasters and t-shirts, to commemorate your special day.

I would plead not guilty. Go to where the offense alledgely occured and see if there are signs posted when photo radar is in use. Also see where you got nailed in relation to where the signs are to see if the picture was taken before the point where you could have read the sign informing you of the photo radar zone.
Also see if the picture they have is timestamped.
But the first thing you need to do is request a citation from a police officer instead of the mail.
Some of this is what I would do in any traffic violation, some of it is from this link:

Leslie: You would think, right? I don’t have a scanner otherwise, I would have posted it.
Lord Likely: That’s a good idea!
Chris: I checked on that yesterday. There is a private school there and the speed limit drops down to 20 MPH for two hours twice a day. I got caught in a speed trap.

That’s funny that you thought you’d offended someone when only one person had commented.
I’m the same way. I get paranoid when people don’t comment.
We’re such attention whores, aren’t we?
Well that’s too bad about the ticket. But at least you shared the pic so we could see you speeding on by :)
Someone’s been playing with ComicLife, eh? That photo of Reggie is hot. I’ll just ignore that comment about eye boogers and remember him the way I see him above.
“I’m Debbie’s biggest fan” HAHAHA! I loved that.
Howard, you’re the best!

[...] keeps you posted on what he’s up to and why Deborah Harry may be our next President on the Web Pen Blog. [...]

Nathan: Hooray! Someone thought the fan comment was funny. It just cracked me up because it was so stupid. :) Yes, I bought Comic Life a few months ago to make a flyer for a show and had a couple of ideas for laughs for this post.
