Change the channel I saw this show last week :frowning:

I'm sure someone will figure out a way to blame this on Marilyn Manson and video games.

 

[Julian Reville]

Damn, I thought vegetables were supposed to be good for you. If anyone survives going to the farmer's market to buy some, please let me know.

I'm beginning to suspect that there's a conspiracy in which senior citizens run over people at farmer's markets.

The conspiracy's probably funded by Metamucil to prevent people from getting their fiber the natural way so the company can sell more product.

I knew there was a reason I buy my vegetables at the supermarket.

Malcolm R,

How about it's more like the supermarkets wanting to keep their customers from patronizing more farmers' markets?

 

[James Edward]

Great line.

It seems that the "GAS" is always "Sticking" it must be a defect, just like the turn signals on BMW's they never work

 

[Rob Gillespie]

just like the turn signals on BMW's they never work

BMWs don't come with turn signals. They're an optional extra. And judging by how often you don't see them they must be very expensive extras.

Hehe that is too funny. But on a more serious note they ran a piece on the local news up here about how Washington state has no laws on being too old to drive and there is a woman who lives here who's 106 and still liscenced to drive thats outrageous. Honestly I think past the age of 60 you should be required to take a basic skills test and driving test yearly to continue being liscenced no exceptions. There is a lot of laws being worked on similar to this and hopefully with the more recent tragedy's this will shed light on letting someone who cant even see over the steering wheel continue to drive.
