Speeding ticket

Drove down to NYC this past weekend to attend my cousin’s wedding and along the way got nailed with a speeding ticket by one of those sneaky highway patrols in Connecticut. Who would’ve thought that going 70mph in a 55mph zone was considered speeding? It was certainly news to me. The wedding itself can only be described as surreal. What began as a traditional Chinese dinner banquet with shark fin soup, abalone, and lobsters, turned suddenly into an 80’s dance party, as bridesmaids, groomsmen, and others boogied on the dance floor at the center of the restaurant complete with disco lights and smoke effects. We drove back up on Sunday after a bit of bowling and dim sum with the folks.

  1. Ouch! Touch luck. I've heard those ticket people like to hand out those at the beginning and end of the month so I guess my advice is watch out during those times. Otherwise, I'm glad to hear you had such a great time. Smiles!

  2. Well, Melody was fine cruising back from NYC at 80mph along the same road. Go figure. The lesson here is to let the pretty girl drive!

  3. or MAYBE just watch for shadows under overpasses, where the cops like to hang out with their little laser guns. Hint: if all the cars in front of you hit their brakes, beware of pigs and go 55 mph (speed limit in CT, unless it\'s 45. You know, the speed limit on SURFACE STREETS in California…).
