it's a joyous day in casa myshkin!
my daughter passed her drivers license test! she's almost 22 years old and will graduate from university in april so she decided it was time to drive. when she turned 16 years old she wanted to drive so i took her out in the mighty corolla and tried to prepare her for the test. there was only one problem, she wouldn't practice. i almost had to beg her to get behind the wheel and when she did it usually resulted in an argument because she wouldn't listen to me. predictably she failed the drivers test so we decided to give it another try. after one or two lessons she wouldn't practice any more and took the test. she failed again. she got real pissed off and said; fuck it, i won't drive and that was the end of it.
fast forward to 2011. she made up her mind to get the license and signed up for lessons with an accredited driving school. once again i had to pull teeth to get her to practice. after completing the lessons she took the test and failed again. the tester said she was too cautious. we practiced and she took the test and failed again. the tester said she was too reckless. she was now really, really pissed off. she scheduled another test and i told her she had to practice every day for a week or else she couldn't use my car for the test. she practiced every day for a week and passed!!! i guess practice is important.
have i ever mentioned that i don't like cops?
here's another reason why, FUCKING DRUNK COP KILLS MOTORCYCLIST!
that's right, the fucking cop was drunk and killed a motorcyclist. after killing the motorcyclist he gave his drivers license to someone on the scene and went to his house for a drink of vodka and returned to the scene. the police couldn't give him a breathaliser because of the vodka he claimed to have consumed at home. now the fucking cop is on trial and denying it was all a ruse to beat the impaired driving.
here's the kicker. this is the same fucking cop who was in charge of the operation at the airport when a polish traveler was tasered to death for the crime of being lost. this fucking cop lied like a horse thief and was convicted of perjury because the whole fucking thing was recorded on the security cameras. he's been on paid suspension since 2008. to sum up, the prick has killed two people and still on paid leave!
that's why i hate cops!
time to mellow out a bit.
i love you sons of bitches.

Yay! For your Fast Food Princess! I had to laugh. None of my boys fought with me about driving. Only my daughter. Interesting. I wonder if its a girl thing?
What on earth is he still on paid leave for? That is truly awful. He should be locked up tight.
Teenage drivers are the most dangerous ones (apart from drunk cops), so maybe it's a good thing she didn't get her licence until now. Funny she thought she could pass without practising. Not low on confidence, that's for sure.
Wow. The Good, The Bad...
silly - i agree, lock him up but cops have the strongest union in the galaxy. maybe i dislike cops so much because i'm jealous.
gb - as they say experience is the best teacher and teenagers lack experience. at least they have air bags these days to cushion the blows.
bob - yup, and i'm the ugly!
She should have been put on a race track for a week.
Some cops are bad, or turn bad after a few years of dealing with other assholes, but they're not all bad.
When my mother moved to Oregon and applied for a license in this state, she failed the written test. For example when asked what the speed limit is in a school zone on a multiple choice test (20 mph), she selected 15 mph because that would be even SAFER!
It's also WRONG and she flunked the test. She was indignant thinking she was trying to show she was a extra safe driver. She got it the second time.
I won't comment about cops. We had one kicked off the force here because he was forging DUII results to write tickets. A whole bunch of his convictions were thrown out of court after he was fired.
I've never had a problem with a cop, even back when I did some stupid shit. But maybe I'm just gifted that way.
When I first started reading this post, I thought to myself "I didn't know Billy had any kids that young."
Then I saw.
"Too cautious?" Man, that's crap.
Teaching my son to drive was like teaching Evil Kenevil to drive, I'm not sure, but I may have kissed the ground after his first lesson.
I bet the cops would go right ahead and make anyone but a cop take a breathalyzer.

I came from a good O' boys drinking town, the cops drank right along with the rest of us and no one got DUI's unless they were really shit faced.
My wife got two of them. :-)
robert - she was right to be cautious. i received a speeding ticket for going 50 km/hr in a 30 km/hr school zone. i was actually going 30 in block where the school was and sped up to 50 after the school but this particular school had the zone extended 3 blocks beyond the school. $138 down the shitter!
tex - i've been telling my daughter to apply for a job with the mounties when she graduates but everyone else in our family thinks i'm an asshole for suggesting it. put in 20 years, make a fortune in overtime, retire with a huge pension and get a high paying job in hotel security. sounds good to me!
bill - how could leave a woman with 2 dui's? she must have the life of the party!

No, she was a first class bitch when she got drunk, and wet the bed.
A Washington State Trooper (never met one I didn't like) was shot not too far away from here yesterday or this morning. Sometimes I don't blame cops for being assholes considering all they have to put up with.
I think if I was a cop I would beat the shit out every asshole I stopped just to make up for the things they did and didn't get caught for.
I bet if you was a cop you would do the same. :-)
I failed my drivers test twice before I passed it..and when I was having my picture taken the instructor walked by and said something to the effect that he didn't think I would ever pass the test. the picture on my drivers license with me yelling fuck you ..
bill - wet the bed! did you rub her nose in it and throw her outside?
yellowdog - they might have passed her because she was the only white person i could see being tested.
I'm not the kind of guy that would toss a woman out in the cold because she wet the bed. Or rub her nose in it.
I suppose it was embarrassing enough to her when she woke up without me making it worse.
Man, I could not wait to get my learner's permit at 15 and got my driver's license as soon as I turned 16. Freedom! My older son was reluctant, though, and I finally had to force him to start driving at 16. Told him he couldn't go away to university until he'd been driving a year.
secret - me too. i got my learner's permit on my 16th birthday and bought a motorcycle the next day.
Back dipshit Idaho we never heard of a fucking learners permit in those days. I just went and got a drivers license, no driving test (just a written test) or anything like that.
Fuck, back in dipshit Idaho I was 'borrowing' cars before I got a drivers license.
But back in the good old days it didn't take much to hot wire a car.
Do you miss the good old days? I sure do.
bill - the only thing i miss from the old days is my young strong body. other than that i like all the new toys of the 21st century.
i deleted a spam comment. easier for me to click delete than for people leaving a comment and fighting with word verification. me and ruby aim to please.
I for one appreciate that. I loathe word verification.
