About the cop thing, if you refuse to let them search your car they can call out a k-9 unit and make you wait till it gets there and sniffs around your car.

Income tax was ruled unconstitutional by the supreme court, but for some reason we still have to pay it.

You don’t have to put a real email address or name to leave these comments even though it says its required.

Funny, these are all American things, none of this is expected of you abroad.

The first one happened last night, and I must say the server that picked up the check was a little annoyed. For tax purposes the tip amount has to be added to the computer when the check gets closed.

Not like I care, I enjoy making severs job’s harder as they are all lazy but I’d imagine it makes their job easier.

In the UK, if a cop wants to search you o your car he must have reason to believe that he will find something dodgy.
You CAN refuse the search though.you don’t even have to speak to him, just walk away.
If you do this though it just gives the cop reason to believe that you are hiding something.

All fun and games ;o)

If you live in a crowded city, are in a crowded shopping mall or other event where many people are walking both directions, you don’t have to move out of stranger’s ways when the walk in your path. I have found that greeting them does one of a couple of things.

They may greet you back. (this is least common but common enough for a quick hello and many conversations have begun here.)

They may just smile

If you pass them again, they are much more likely to remember you. (I have people come up to me or start the greeting second time around.

and lastly, if they are not in a social mood, they move out of your way pleasantly, returning your courtesy.

Tell the DMV the stop signs in parking lots aren’t legal. In Ohio there are 2 parts to the driving test; driving & manuverability (i.e. parallel parking). I had 100% on driving, hit a cone on the parallel parking, and missed a stop sign in the parking lot because I was upset. I was failed on the driving part too because DMV considered it a legal stop sign. My advice, don’t blow though a parking lot stop sign with the police around and try to get out of the ticket by telling him/her a web site blog told you that you didn’t have to stop.

Be careful, some of the major shopping centers have agreements with local law enforcement and traffic laws are enforceable. However, entrances must have signs to notify the public of this.

Hospitals can’t make you sit in a wheelchair to exit the building, can they?
