Korova Milk Bar

The song during the end credits rocks. That is all.

It’s kind of sad, but the thing I’m most looking forward to, about moving, and starting a new job, isn’t getting out of Michigan, going to Oregon, or starting the new job. It’s no longer having to deal with dial-up, and finally being back on broadband at home.

For anyone that’s seen me, and seen what my drivers license photo looks like, you’ll know what I’m talking about.

The last time my drivers license was updated, was when I first got it. I was 15, and 130 lbs. Nine years later, and 60 lbs heavier (I’m no longer a stick! Yay!), the SOS has finally updated my drivers license photo. I had tried getting it updated, when I had to renew on my 21st birthday. I renewed by mail, and sent in the updated photo, with their little “update my photo” paperwork. They ignored it. Oh well.

It was good for a few laughs, while it lasted. People would look at it and go, “there’s no way that’s you”. Unless, of course I was actually being carded for something (on the rare occasion that I’d get carded). When that would happen, the person usually wouldn’t even blink, and just accept it.

Anyway, the point is that I had to go through the process of renewing my license, and plate, and will be getting a license that doesn’t have a (nearly) decade old photo of me on it.

For those of you that have yet to discover xkcd, it is Teh Funnay(TM). Very geeky humor. Anyway, direct link to xkcd – A webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language – By Randall Munroe.
