DMV Update

No go.

Yesterday, John tried to circumvent Shorty by going to the Marble Falls DMV office with every scrap of paper Shorty had insisted he bring. John even had the title to the car that we licensed several months ago in Texas. The new DMV guy (no nickname that I could discern from Stange's grumbling) wanted to see the receipt to make sure that we paid for the Texas license. Of course, the logical question (or answer) is: how would I have gotten the Texas title and license if I hadn't paid the necessary fee to the other government worker down the hall? Apparently, that is not good enough (however, blue ink is OK in Marble Falls).

By the way, did anyone see the debates the other night? One of the big issues was whether or not to give drivers licenses to undocumented immigrants. Stange stood by the tv shouting "HOW ABOUT LICENSES FOR REAL CITIZENS?"

I found the receipt. We will take everything to a different DMV office in Fredericksburg next week as soon as we figure out which days they give out licenses there.....
