There's different spots with different rules. At the Franklin Institue I parked at a metered spot yesterday for free (Monday-Saturday monitoring) while just across the street there are meters which are monitored 7 days. I know where to look by now....

Forgot how good taco bell tasted while wertzd.

DE inspection is so much better.

they plug in the obd2, check lights, then make you brake. in and out. this is such a pain in the ass

I'll have to get one for WA in February when my pate expires. Praying it's cake.

Well have you SEEN the stats comparing equipment-related automobile deaths in states with stringent inspection policies vs. those with no or lax policies?

Neither have I.

Your car is kinda newish though, right? I never had to get one while I was living in WA because my car was within five years old or something.

Oh and it's also worth noting that I drove around Issaquah with an expired North Carolina plate for about a year or so and never once was pulled over (that didn't happen until I drove around PA for a year or so with expired WA plates).

Turns out when a Sony Blu-Ray all-in-one home theater unit tells you it is "WiFi Ready," what it means is that if you purchase their proprietary USB wireless LAN adapater for $64, it will have wireless internet. And ONLY their proprietary adapter works.

Word to the wise.

Mine's 2002, so I'll have to get one. Yeah, I chanced it in ND for like 4 months before I gave in. We'll see what happens.

Board going crazy in mobile land

Dear people presumably smarter than me, is it permissible in a thesis paper to specifically focus on an article by one writer for a couple pages? Its a 12 page paper about Rehnquist.

There's no inspection here. There's just an emissions test every other year. You can renew registration on-line. Maybe even do initial registration too. Regardless, if you don't wait til the end of the month it's a piece of cake to do in person as well.

I would fall back on "If it doesn't feel right, it probably isn't." I mean, supposedly you're mustering support for one of your arguments. If you're only able to call on one of your sources to do that, it sounds thin. That wouldn't be a hard and fast rule, though, and it may be you just have to restructure a bit to build your case better.

I was actually going to do this to argue against my point.

Well I dunno. If your thesis is something like "While it is often stated that x is true, history has shown again and again that y is actually the major factor in this development" and this guy is like THE major, recognized proponent of x I could see giving him major airtime. But in that case two pages maybe even seems short. However, I'm flying blind here. I'll just go back to if you think there's a perhaps too long a gap without a variety of different sources used, you're probably right.

Good points, good points.

My only thing is I think I'm going to end up coming to the conclusion my thesis statement isn't true. I don't think that's a bad thing, necessarily, I just need to figure out the best way to format a paper like that.
