Vacation: July 2008 - California

The art of the DMV

Just a small update before I make a mega-vacation update with PICTURES.

I got back home from vacation Saturday morning around 6am. Got the mail, saw that my insurance provider was going to cancel my car insurance in September because my license are suspended.

Read on, it’s worth it.

That was pause worthy, since I didn’t really know my license were suspended, and had been driving around in Cali test driving BMWs.

So this morning, armed with a ton of documentation, receipts from paid tickets, and proof of address, I went into the DMV. I god awful way to spend the morning normally, but this time, MAGIC.

I walked up to the teller.

“Yeah, I think my license are suspended.”

“Let me check and then I’ll get you a number… Yup, suspended”

Before I even had time to sit down, my number got called. Hooray!

I went up, explained the letter, and pulled out my heaps of documentation.

“Hmm.. it’s been suspended almost a year.. oh don’t worry, you don’t need all that, just pay the reinstate fee and I’ll make you a new one.”

Total time, maybe 8 eight minutes and I was on my way. Definitely the best DMV experience I’ve ever had.

I thought about pointing out the irony that someone with a valid novice racing license has a suspended regular license. So I’m allowed to go 160mph without a ride-along, but can’t go 60mph :P
So remember, if you want to have a great DMV experience, go get your license suspended and don’t do anything about it for a year :P

Removed Gallery2 from Kinderism

Since the upgrade to 2.6, my Gallery2 bridge has stopped working and is too much of pain to fool with.
The old Kinderism gallery is located here ( http://media.kinderism.net ), and I’ll be using the NextGEN gallery here on Kinderism from here on out.
