So the guy says...........

this afternoon I stopped a car with no plates on it anywhere. Rear bumper, front bumper, rear window, front window. I walk up to the driver's door and ask the operator for his license and registration. I have done this several thousand times in the last 35 years. Guy replies, "I must have left it in the office". O.K., so what is your name and date of birth. Man replies politely what that was. I walk back to the cruiser and run a check of his license status. Couldn't find anything on him, nada. Ran the V.I.N. of the car, nada. So I know the car belogs to one of the 57 used car licensees we have in town. And the driver did have a dealer plate on the floor of the Nissan. So I am pretty sure its not stolen, but I figure the guy has no valid driver's license. I walk back to the driver's side door. I ask the guy, "are you playing me? I ran your name and d.o.b. and the registry says its doesn't know you."

So the guy says, "oh it must be under my maiden name". I just got married and my new name is........................

First time for everything. He was the girl in the relationship.

Thumbs up

We live in a strange new world. It can be funny as hell though....

He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.

"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

I thought it was hilarious also but not in a derogatory sense. I didn't write the ticket, because I have always had this thing that for the most part I keep to myself. That thing is if a person says something to me by way of an excuse for the first time, and after 35 years it is hard for someone to do that (cause I have heard them all) then I cut them loose without a ticket. This guy didn't get a ticket.

Took an application for one of my apartments last fall. Part of the qualification process before the apartment is even shown to a prospective tenant is to ask how many people will be living in the apartment, and when I did this guy (lets call him James Jones) happily chirped "oh, it will be for me and my husband!". OK, I can deal with that, I have quite a few gay couples in my buildings, so it really doesn't ring any bells. When they apply, the name on the deposit check is "Mr. and Mr. Glen & James Smith - Jones" Had to give that a 2nd look, a new one for me. I guess Mr. Jones is more liberated than Swimmer's pal.

So Swimmer, did he turn up under his 'maiden' name?? or did you just let him skate because of the novelty factor alone??

All that is necessary for evil to succeed is that good men do nothing.

Yes it was still under his maiden name. He swore he had been to the registry and changed it but hasn't. At least that is what he's been telling the mrs.
