Yesterday we received a ticket for not having renewed our state registration on the beloved
sube. Funny, because we did renew our state registration and had placed the 09 sticker on the license plate over a month ago. Apparently you are supposed to place the sticker on and then "score" it so that a thief can't tear it off and then use it. Crap. Who knew? If only we thought more like criminals.
Now we are forced to (i) buy another registration sticker (they only charge $20 when this happens - thanks for the deal) and (ii) contest the ticket - which requires us to complete a police report. Awesome. I hope that thief is happy . . . and proud how he has hurt his cause forever . . . I hope he thinks he's clever . . . (that's right I just started singing "Wicked" - deal with it).

Whoa. That is really sneaky. Nice of the DMV not to give you that little hint when you renew your registration. They are making some money off the $20 replacement sticker policy!
I had no idea that registration stickers were hot tickets for hardened street criminals. Now I know!
You are just asking for trouble living in that high crime neighborhood of yours. Sure my mom thinks you are saving money by living in the city, but is it really worth it when you can't sleep at night because you are worried about your stickers? Is it?
Maybe Toddcat should be your bodyguard? Not a bad idea if you ask me.
Toddcat couldn't protect us from school kids - despite going to the "gymnasium" he has no muscles and no self-defense skills. I don't mean this as an insult - just honest. No, I trust Ross and his numchuck skills over the Toddcat.
Burn, diss Todd!
Lindy, what about offering the Goose for security detail. She'd be the perfect bodyguard -- with her sunshine-sweet smile, razor sharp teeth and "go for the jugular" mentality (or at least "go for the closest exposed digit" mentality, which would might be pretty effective in deterring a registration-sticker stealer).
Kitty, you are a bjf. Ross would be worthless as a body guard. Let's face it, if someone tried to rob you not only would he give the crook all your money, but he would probably offer them a ride afterwards. That's just how Ross is. Plus, he loves crooks. (see his post about his true love Richard Nixon)
That's Chicago for you! Karl got his bike stolen out of our storage room our first week there. Let's see, and since we don't learn, it was followed by dollar store pillows I was going to use for my 3rd graders, our car emergency kit, and on and on and on...
