Attention, please! All residents of Richmond and surrounding counties...
Edited on Mon Feb-13-06 03:51 PM by Midlodemocrat
my daughter just got her learner's permit. Now would be a good time to go on an extended vacation.

If you see the midlo van, with her driving and me white knuckled in fear, the same rules apply as when you in front of an ambulance. Pull all the way over to the right and stop and wait for the terror to pass.

God speed, Richmond. I hope you will survive.

13. For the sake of the family, you should probably bail.
It is not going to be pretty.
