Yeah sure, but apart from that, there was only the uncapped, negotiable, $2 speed, when the lights are on.

It's like my Granma used to say: "Start looking like you're busy trying to fix the problem, or I'll make you fix the problem."

Oh, and one solitary supermarket that hated its customers slightly more than their staff and deliberately didn’t put prices on things.

Now we’ve had the last laugh. We all fucked off! Hahaha!

I have been stopped a few times in PP at night at one of these police roadblocks, they were the black and green shirts, the blue shirts go home at 17:00. Serious attitudes and they told me it is a check for weapons. Everyone get out of the car and the smallest guy crawls through the car opening everything.

OK now for the CEO detectives, looks like someone was driving the company van. Which company belongs to the lettering on the van door? A free beer to whomever has the answer!

That's pretty good for one night. Imagine what they could do in one month.
