  1. It was actually a few years ago. You pay like $20, they give you some web pages that you are supposed to be reading ... they supposedly had a timer that would not allow you to advance too quickly but obviously you can do other things while that timer is going. And at the end of each section there was some rediculous quiz. Paid the ticket online, request traffic school online, took traffic school online and they sent me the certificate and court docs in mail. Very convenient but not every court had that at the time. It's much more convenient than the 8 or 12 hour regular traffic school although the time I went, the cop told us a lot of cool stories so it wasn't all wasted. Actually I learned a lot about laws too ... for example the red light law. I always had assumed you shouldn't cross at yellow but the cop told us you are only breaking the law if your wheel crosses the first pedestrian white line after the light turns RED. Otherwise, it's not running a red light
  2. ADG, why don't you read that again and then read back your own post and see if you recognize any irony in that.
  3. What points you talking about? In california, 3 points and you are DONE. License is gone. As far as I've heard. I've had 2 speeding tickets my entire life. 1) Obvious speed trap Sunday 8AM on sunset in pacific pallisades (rich neighborhood). No one around .. speed limit is 30 and I'm doing 45. Boo HOo Hoo 2) Somewhere in northern Cali at 6AM ... flat road, visibility is perfect for miles. Not a single sole around ... I'm doing 65 in a "40" zone (it's completely a rural back road with farming fields on each side ... FLAT, straight. At some points I saw headlinghts approaching from front but by the time I realized it was a cop, he passed me. Made a nice U turn and came and slapped the ticket in my hand. That one, I went to online traffic school !!! It was great.
  4. Is dirt technically a "vegeterian" dish?
  5. You want to see something really stupid? Check out this thread on this other board (truck site) ... I can't believe so many people would take that ugly arse chevy impala SS or Pontiac over the beamer!!!! I am not a big fan of beamers but given those three choices, I think it is a no brainer!!!! Anyway, someone posted a pic of a mercedes at the end there ... I'd love to see one of those in person one day
  6. Try to take a few pics of the models (read: the ladies presenting the cars) They are usually the best part of the show.
  7. Whewwwwwwwww! Yah, next time (hopefully there won't be one). I was affraid you were going to say yes.
  8. What's the difference? Do I have to draw you a diagram of what's the difference between friends and what Thoth and Azat are talking about?
  9. NO NO NOooooooo We have "private messages" for a reason. Please spare us details
  10. Reminds me of this time a few years ago when a buddy of mine and I were discussing some problem at UCLA and we were both very focused and trying to figure it out ... all of a sudden a very good looking girl walked by and of course both of us kinda froze for a few seconds. After that, we BOTH completely forgot what we were talking about and why That was incredible I think we just went and had some pizza after that.
  11. Nope not here. Clean record ... one of the benefits of driving offroaders that have a tough time getting up to the speed limits.
  12. Empty pool? I have always wanted to learn to weld ... all sort of welding ... MIG, TIG ... aluminum etc. Hopefully one day I'll be able to have time to take some classes ... and hopefully there'll be some hot chicks in those classes .... and hopefully the instructor will also be a hot chick.
  13. Ok let's all kiss and make up. Azat, your mush is ready on the stove.
  14. Because they are at least a century behind in everything (mentally).
  15. AWESOME!!!! But it's been pretty warm ... they tell me it tends to get a bit chilly at times so we'll see
  16. No not the way you're talking
  17. Hahahaahha... Well you (all of you whoever 'we' is) is a pretty funny bunch.
  18. And for the first time in my life, I'm speechless ... So yah, I'm not going to answer cause I "can't"
  19. Oh this (the ladders) reminds me!!!! One time I had wired up a big 300W light in the backyard on top of the garage. My brother was on top of the ladder trying to paint the mount I'd made for the light. It was an odd angle so I was holding the ladder, he had one hand one a metal pole that goes into the ground to the side and the other hand painting the light. All of a sudden he let out this big screech and his whole body wiggled ... almost flying down the ladder I couldn't believe it! So to make a long story short, it ended up that I had accidentally wired the ground wire of the light to the hot wire in the garage (the other side of the wall) so basically the whole metal enclosure of the light was HOT! When he accidentally touched it with his hand, and with the other hand being on the metal pole, well you know... But to my defense, it wasn't my fault. The wiring the previous owner had done was totally screwey. So he had basically used the ground wire as another hot circuit to save on wiring I guess
  20. Why do I get a feeling this barn raisin is going to end up being like a bad 3 stooges episode? We'll have to get Thoth to bring his video camera for this event. I am happy to say I've never fallen from a ladder ... I've only fallen twice really bad (other than during childhood) ... one time from my bike (in germany when I was about 14) ... the front wheel bent in half and locked up and I went flying down a dirt hill and broke my shoulder. We didn't know for two days it was broken But after my mom noticed it "looked" odd, we had x-rays taken and long story short, I ended up in the hospital for a week after the surgery. The other time was while carrying my skis going down some steps when I wiped out on a big patch of ice and landed on my back on the edge of the stairs. Could easily have snapped my spine but nothing happened! I couldn't move for a few seconds but the odd thing was I was laughing
  21. Hey, depending on the day, with Ara we may also get someone to join! But we have to be very careful on which day.
  22. Wow that's a lot of Chinese. I see San Diego is already having an effect. But at least you're not a math major so no worries!

    Nra Vs. Ira

    Also you should be aware that talking about how your wife likes other people's "dashnamur" could really give the wrong impression to some people (so an additional reason to watch out for nra / ir usage). Interesting info about "Ira".
  24. Dear Arpa, this is after all the "HyeForum -> RELIGION & THEOLOGY -> Religion" section. Seems like everyone is civil about things so I don't see any problems. If we kick this out of here, since there are also zillions of joke sites on the web, then we have to remove the joke section too... then the ever so popular "romance and love" section. It's not hard to see that slowly we'll have nothing left but the Genocide section with which we'll then define the identify of our Armenian forum (I know MJ is laughing at this).

    Հայերեն

    But doesn't it seem a bit odd that by typing just numbers I seemed to have satsified Harut's wishes ... and most amazing of all, without even being able to understand what the question was to begin with? Nah ... I can't be that good.
