Red Tape
Thanks, as always, for your comments and interactions on the blog posts. I thought John Robert’s comments were interesting about the disciples of John holding a prayer vigil.
There’s a new restaurant that’s just opened here in Stockton (California’s culinary afterthought)! The name of the restaurant is Sushi and Seafood Buffet. I’m telling you, it has stomach pump written all over it! To add to our Sushi rules we should say "you must never eat sushi from a buffet."
I’ve been trying to wade through the red tape to finish registering our vehicles.
I’ve made three trips this morning to get the van smog checked. The operator was late, please come back. The machine needs to be calibrated, please come back. We’re being audited right now by the CA division of smog, please come back.
The last item for the truck is a certified weight (because it seems trucks on the east coast might possibly weigh more than trucks on the west coast). The place that does this is a truck stop about four miles north on I-5. The catch is they only do this between 10PM and 6AM. I’m looking forward to my midnight visit to the truck stop. I’m betting they will have some kind of sushi special.

I knew there was a reason I didn’t own a van. Truck stop sushi sounds delicious though. We ate a couple nights ago at a restaurant called "I (heart symbol) sushi." New rule. No symbols in the restaurant’s name. Blecch.
I’ve heard truck stop sushi is the very best. You can also get great deals on CD radios as well, which I hear is the coming fad in two-way communications.
Those preliminary forms and certifications are designed to prepare you for the real test; actually going to the DMV for the driver’s license or tags. I felt persona non grata when it came time to get a license. DMV made me go to the Social Security office and get a new SS card before I could get the license (I lost my SS card 30 years ago and had never needed it until last year) oh! and (the SS office didn’t even require picture ID, only proprietory info). Then I filled out the DMV form in BLUE ink while waiting in line and when I got to the desk was reprimanded, sent to the back of the line to fill DMV form in BLACK ink. Now you know why in my driver’s license picture I look totally pi**ed-off.
Can I get some of that truck stop sushi delivered to the DMV?
Midnight sushi……………..Ugh! You’re better than this, Randy!
Put on your baseball cap and add some tabasco to that midnight truck-stop sushi. Sounds good to me.
