In an Aussie accent, perhaps?? 'Shell

That were my wife and i were married on a Beach in Bali, vthe witness was the Hotel cleaning lady, she was so happy we asked her to join us.

Maybe ... and if you didn't already know my name, I'd say you were wondering yourself! Smooches to you, my dear! See you in LP (or sooner!) 'Shell 'Shell

I'm with you on that. I have the lucky job of assisting some "bridezillas" with their venue of choice (my Conference Centre). So far we haven't managed to price ourselves out of their reach. Maybe next year. Me. If I ever get married, it'll be me, him and the guy saying "do you take ..." No frills is the way to go. 'Shell 'Shell

Don't toot your horn too much there, toots! Our legal age is 18. I was ID'd by a "barely" (I'm sure!) 18 year old for smokes one night when I was 36!!! He said, well you should be flattered. I said, if I were your mother, I'd slap you! 'Shell

Sheesh! Your hospitality industry sounds WAY better trained than any other I've encountered! There's a difference in TX in a TX DL (driver's license) and a TX ID (Identification). The ID has no driving privlages attatched and anyone of any age can get one. Our driving age is 16. Our drinking age is 18. We only have the DL (which, sometimes, doesn't have any driving priviledges attached either! ). Hehe...you're not kidding. That's why I'm amazed that people wouldn't take the time to learn the laws of their own state. They'll argue about them and their own misconceptions of what the law is or isn't, but they've never even read them. If you want to have a laughable afternoon, pick a law that seems different then go look up the case law regarding that law. THAT is usually good for a laugh, followed by an "oh...well I don't agree with that..." Don't read too much or it might raise your blood pressure. Let's agree that if I come down there, my DL is okay with you. I'll do the same if you come up here. WAY easier that way! 'Shell

I have pets and love them dearly and would be devastated if I lost them. Good news is mine are happy and healthy. Glad your's is too! And WHAT a cutie!

Yup. You'll also find that most states have a similar law. Not really. See my other post. Besides anyone, resident or not, can get a TX ID card. Its a pain in the ass, sure, but if you want to strickly be "legal" then there you go. In reality you're not going to typically need it. About the only time I've seen someone have a problem with an ID from another state is when they were being a dick at the bar to other people or to the bar tender. Moral of the story is don't be a dick. That's a universal truth in going to a bar or dealing with someone in the service industry. Its not limited to just TX there. Why would I want to go through the "pain in the ass" paperwork to get ID there when I had to go through the "pain in the ass " paperwork to get my OWN ID to begin with! AND I probably need my own "pain in the ass paperwork" ID to get your "pain in the ass paperwork" ID anyway! Good thing I'm not an ass when dealing with people in the service industry! Well you might have been talking about getting a passport legally, don't you think it might be a bit easier to get a fake Texas DL over, perhaps, a fake Passport from the US?? Or any other country for that matter? I'm not the least bit shocked about any laws anywhere. Just surprised that you "need" to have an acceptable form of ID issued by the PLACE you're visiting, that's all. I can tell you that here in my part of "Canadia", they certainly won't issue you a driver's license unless you reside here. Your Texas ID is fine in Alberta. Ah, the laws of the world, huh!? 'Shell

So if you DON'T have a TEXAS DL or another form of acceptable TEXAS ID, you can't buy alcohol or tobacco if some 18 year old thinks you're not of age? I can appreciate that they want to ensure that the person purchasing said items is of age but what if you can't GET a TEXAS ID (say, a Canadian travelling there??). Hmmm ... that would sure limit tourism. As for your latter post about passports being easily counterfeited, I would have to call BS on that. Especially in this day and age. Try getting a passport now (I'm in the process of renewing mine and I can tell you, it ain't easy! They practically want my first born, which would fine if I HAD a first born to give them!). Drivers Licence, while that's ANOTHER story! Here in Alberta, they have these new, funky, DL's that are, apparently, NOT EASY to counterfeit! You go to the Registry to get a new DL, you give them your old DL, they take your picture, keep your old DL and give you a nice slip of paper without a photo that, apparently, proves who you are. 3 weeks later, your new, NOT EASY TO COUNTERFEIT DL appears in your unlocked, unattended mailbox. Gotta love this NEW FANGLED security! Before all this came into effect, I went to the Registry, gave them my OLD DL, they took a picture and gave me my new one. Ah, progress ... 'Shell 'Shell

Hahahaha! Dawn 79. Would have been a better porn name if I had grown up 10 blocks south. 'Shell 'Shell

I knew you would hear me Even with your tuque on You might want to be a little nicer to me. I have, perhaps, a little gift for you that is red in colour. You don't play nice, someone else gets it. 'Shell

That's not your call. Blues, Dave How about just telling me what it means so I can gauge whether or not I'd even WANT one! 'Shell

It is a special gift that Turtle and I only bestow on extraordinary women. The OTBH5 number is a true badge of honor and sign of achievement for truly special women. The OTBH5 Number was first conceived by the great and honorable Sudsy-Fist. Since his untimely departure from the online world, Turtle and I have traveled the country looking for Special women deserving of this great Honor. Could you please elaborate on what the acronym means. Knowing that would allow me to gauge whether or not I'm even worthy. 'Shell

I thought your boobies did the driving... Blues, Dave Ooops. My bad. You are correct. 'Shell

Do you have an OTBH5 Number yet?? Surely that would show my Appreciation for such a potentially Epic idea. Pardon my ignorance, but what the hell is that??? 'Shell (who's guessing she's going to regret asking that question) 'Shell

You, Dave and I driving from seattle to LP.. Hmmm... What could possibly go wrong?? I really hope there are not any strip clubs on the way. Yea, This just might have to happen. See how MY brilliant idea has morphed into an even BETTER brilliant idea! Edited to add: You can thank me in LP for that. 'Shell

Trapped in a Car with dave?? You call that a Problem Solved?? Dave and I on a Road trip could be an entirely new set of problems. The extra Airfare would be MUCH less than the legal fees and Bondsmen. Ah, but think of the stories you could tell! Those alone would be worth the extra money for bail! Hmmm ... sounds like a road trip I'd enjoy. Too bad I have to drive myself and my trailer there or I'd join you two! 'Shell 'Shell

Working on it. Flights to Kalispell are NOT cheap from Atlanta. Fly to Washington. Drive with Dave. Problem solved. 'Shell 'Shell

Fixed it for ya Same thing either way. 'Shell 'Shell

Look out, Shell's in the house! (I think she yells this at hockey games too!) Maybe ... . Usually reserved for the guys wearing black and white stripes. I'd like to take credit for that but it's from my friend Heidi's t-shirt. HUGE letters ... front AND back. 'Shell 'Shell

Maybe they won't be orange this year ...

Can't wait to see the ensemble! 'Shell

HA HA HA HA HA HA HAH HAH HAH HAH!!! Blues, Dave I said TRY ... WITH a straight face, I might add. Cut me some slack. 'Shell

Fuck you you fuckin' fuck. 'Shell 'Shell

you guys gunna humiliate and assault locals again this year? Only if we can't find an annoying Aussie. 'Shell 'Shell
