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。

刚在那坐一分钟左右。一个门背后伸出一个老者人头,"Wang"。我有些犹豫,不可能这么快吧。"Wang", that old man called again. "Oh, here", I said. 那是一个小房间。5 P( z3 w3 a4 l; e5 C* i- f* W- U$ \
"sit down", the man said.

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。 |
