    Re: Off Topic 2010

    UGH! Just got a speeding ticket, and the damn cop screwed me over. He claims I was going 52, when the highest I got was 49. That BS just cost me an extra chunk of change.

    So this is my first speeding ticket, what's the best route to take in terms of getting it taken care of?

      Pay the over expensive ticket or fight it and hope the officer doesn't show up to court.

            ...or get a lawyer. My sister totaled 3 cars (one car twice) and had 4 speeding tickets and got out of a ticket in every one of them. The lawyer costs is cheaper compared the amount of insurance you'll pay for the next 3 years until that point comes off your insurance.

              What was the speed limit when you got stopped?

              You could:

              a: Just pay the ticket. This is a risk though. Your insurance COULD rise. I got a ticket, payed it, and my insurance never rose though.

              b. Go to court and hope the officer doesn't show up. You can also request for some kind of court supervision which is basically traffic probabtion.

              c. Hire a lawyer. I've never done this but have heard it works.

                    It looks like I might be going to Citi Field for the first time. Only thing that sucks, other than Mets, is that the game I might be going to is this Saturday and there are big college football games that day that I need to watch. :
                    Mets/Giants/Knicks/Rangers/Manchester United/Notre Dame Football

                    Never let fear determine who you are. Never let where you came from determine where you are going.

                      DVR if you have it.

                      And then fashion blinders so you're not tempted to look at a TV with ESPN on. You will also have to walk around with your fingers plugging your ears going "LALALALALA" in case someone is talking about a game. Then you can watch them like they're new when you get home.

                      I learned during the World Cup that it's pretty much impossible to avoid results of games you want to watch later without them being spoiled.

                                How I Met Your Mother and Big Bang Theory have been two of the better comedies this decade.

                                Other than that it's just garbage procedural cop shows.
