Damn damn damn. I was so excited to join Obama's staff but I'll never pass the test! How nice, you don't have to submit traffic tickets that were less than $50. In LA how many traffic tickets can you get that are less $50? I came to a rolling stop at a stop sign and a cop pulled me over and said next time it would be a $300 ticket! That's outrageous. I think I would've gotten the message with $100... What if they stopped fining people but instead went in to your house with an appraiser and took something of value. Obviously that has the potential to be way worse, so to even the playing field a $300 fine would be something like $50 in value... Or maybe the appraiser can take into account emotional worth as well. "That item cost 10 dollars but it came from his son who was just killed last year in a hunting accident." That may make the item worth $1000.
Back to Obama's questionnaire for a moment. They want to see all e-mail or blog entries or facebook pages that can embarrass the president. Are you allowed like 1 or 2 slip-ups? Or are you allowed to say lots of horrible things as long as you sign a letter of release saying that Obama does not and will never ever support your position on "rodent rights" or "Prince Albert" piercing conventions.
Let's just move on.
I noticed today that there are some trees in LA that changed color. Not many but just a few had red and orange leaves! Definitely not "Autumn" but compared to those 800 ft tall palm trees, it's a welcome change.
Okay time to go play softball.
