The judge asked, "was he having a bad day?" and the trooper said, "you don't know the half of it. He was towing a motorhome from Virginia to North Carolina, accompanied by his ex-wife and her new boyfriend."

Sounds like a country song to me! :9f:
With apologies to Alan Jackson (and to the tune of his "Don't Rock the Jukebox")....Ahem.

Don't stop the RV,
I need a place to stay.
My ex and her new man,
Makin' me move away.
Trooper, don't write me a ticket,
Yes, my license is bad.
But my wife done left me,
And now my life is sad.

Don't stop the RV,
Yeah, I don't have a tag.
Can't wait til tomorrow,
Gotta get away from this hag,
Don't stop the RV,
Trooper, cut me some slack.
Cuz I'm leavin' your county,
And I ain't comin' back.

:9f:
I see you have your second career lined up. :happy-bouncyblue: :happy-bouncyblue: :happy-bouncyblue:
Yup, the words fit as good as planes, trains and automobile. :D

Just have to brag (what else is new?) - niece Elizabeth just called to let me know that she has settled on where she will be going to college. The decision was made much easier with the result of this morning's interview - she has been awarded quite a generous scholarship. I can welcome her to the ACC - although she won't be at Duke.

Hey, Lavabe - has Legacy Lady determined where she will be in the fall? As I recall, you mentioned an acceptance to the school where Elizabeth will be going.

Hey, Lavabe - has Legacy Lady determined where she will be in the fall? As I recall, you mentioned an acceptance to the school where Elizabeth will be going.
So, here's what happened:
1) There were a number of acceptances from places which shall remain nameless, except there was one that has a used car salesman as a basketball coach. I think nothing says yUcK better than the day when LL received a package from said school, and it was A COUPLE OF WILDCAT BEACH TOWELS AND SUNGLASSES, enticing her to come. Yeah... no letter from potential major departments. Way to push athletics instead of academics! L-)
2) Other schools that shall remain nameless had inefficient financial aid processes that wound up rendering these two schools out of the running. I mean literally, inefficient forms and process took the schools out of the running.
3) DePaul (Honors): It came down to this school and another one. Substantial merit/scholarship/financial aid, but initially more expensive. Responded within 23 hours of submitting the financial aid appeal, and came up with a big offer... I think they wanted her. Academics leaned in DePaul's favor. Slam dunk decision.

I am now a DePaul Dad!! :ymparty:
