#1, not to Seattle.

tho 3 is compelling.


#1 is actually true. Saved up lunch money for several months and sold my Game Gear. Hopped on a Greyhound bus and I was off! :shock2:

Correct! But that DID happen to a friend of mine! She was in the hospital for about two months. She was lucky not to lose her limb.

Bummer if #3 was true.

#4 is true. When I was 19 I lived in South Africa for about 6 months with my family. I was once driving from Bloemfontein to Port Elizabeth when I got a speeding ticket on an open highway for going 100 km/hour. I defy anybody to drive less than 100km/hour from Bloemfontein to anywhere. Anyway, they wanted about $300 for the ticket, which was an enormous sum to me in 1977. So I fled the country (got on a plane and left, as scheduled). Never heard from them again, but I've never been back, either.

LOL. I have a similar story regarding a parking ticket I received in Maui during my honeymoon in 1993. I guess I could go back now. 8-)
