五月二号一大早送儿子去机场。回来在还有两分钟就到家的Saddleback Road被警察拦下。警察说Saddleback是50Km zone,我开65。给了一张speeding ticket,89刀。不幸得是我的保险4月27日到期,新的邮来了,但我忘了换。No Insurance! 172刀。跟警察解释了半天,就是不行。最终还是拿了两张罚单。郁闷。7 z. B$ y& U; E3 o9 i

"Next", a cashier said. "what can I do for you".8 ^8 e a! h* s1 l+ ^; ^/ O! I5 j

在小房间里呆了最多两分钟。到Cashier那交了89刀后,走出Court。外面风和日丽,阳光明媚,真是一个好天气。 |
