speed cams

I read a thread that CA is thinking of changing red light cams to speed cams too.

1 - 15 miles over would be a fine of $225
15 and over would be a fine of $325

What a scam!!

Greeting

Hello to everyone.

A lot is at stake for the Nation! I think the voters in Mass understand that.

It's not over yet

Just remember the blizzard of 1993 occurred in March, and the Great Blizzard of 1899 was in February.

Recently, we have had snow in February, March, and as late as April.

I know, not the thing we need to know...

Magellian

I went with my son-in-law the other day, and he had the kids, who wanted to stop at a Toys R Us. He had the Magellian GPS. I tried to use it and was greatly disappointed with the POIs and the screen. I felt like throwing it out the window, and I had bought for them in 2008.

I am so glad I have Garmin units.

map

I bought my wife a nuvi 255 for Christmas. Now we have 5!! When I plugged the 255 into the pc a free map update was available. I downloaded it to the pc and updated the 255gps. Then I wondered if I could update my nuvi 660 with the same upgrade. Not a chance. Oh well, I wasn't trying to get anything for free, just thought I would see if I could update my 660 also.

It's weird to see heavy rain in Los Angeles especially when it happens for several days in a row. The last storm of this caliber was in the mid 90s when the El Niño hit, IIRC. I can hear the sound of water pounding the roof, windows, streets as I'm typing this message now. Pretty wild!

Hello everyone!

Book of Eli was very good, I

Book of Eli was very good, I thought. But then again, I only rate movies by body counts, number of explosions, car chases, etc..... The more of each usually results in a higher rating from me exclaim twisted

Looks like the people of Massachusetts definitely had the best interest of the country in mind and got it right! and have finally re-railed the train after the nations derailment of last years election. Thank Goodness!

Next up Illinois?
Illinois is under control of the single-party rule who have had unbridled control of the State of Illinois for the last eight years and have brought them to the brink of financial collapse.

I thought it was a terrific movie; best I have been to in a long time. The time flew by; couldn't believe I was in the theatre that long! I saw the 3D version. Now I want a 3D HDTV!
