I wrote in my Halloween post about being pulled over for failing to have up to date registration stickers on my car. Being the law abiding citizen that I am, I went home and looked for the registration sticker. I was so proud of myself when I actually found my '08 sticker and put it on my car. I breathed a sigh of relief knowing that I had stayed out of Gitmo for one more day, when Mr. Ether -- helpful Mr. Ether -- pointed out that I needed the '09 sticker. I have no idea where it is, and I suspect I may have accidentally thrown it out in a fit of clearing away clutter. So I've actually been driving around illegally for the last year and a half. Gosh, I hope no Republican poll observers use that to try to prevent me from voting tomorrow!
The state DMV makes it quite easy to get a replacement sticker with just an automated phone call, and it looks like they may not even charge for it. So I'm good, but my family had a little laugh at my expense. Again.

Ha, good story! I was thinking that the Helpful Mr Ether could've made a sticker on his Mac.....
He could! And he could make you one too. That $40/year adds up.
You just don't love America, do you? If you did your stickers would be in order!!
I confess, I pal around with unseemly types, like lefty bloggers.
Yikes.. Scary to know you have been driving around without your stickers that long. I always put them on the car right away when we get them so we dont forget about them..
Phew! I would hate for you to break your law abiding streak!
When out of date stickers are outlawed only outlaws will have out of date stickers.
And damned proud of it, Sorghum!
