To all my massachusetts friends.

Many folks have not noticed, but the Massachusetts registry of motor vehicles stopped sending out reminder notices to their customers that their drivers license or vehicle registration was about to expire. I know a few folks who have gotten hit with big fines and having their car impounded and towed to wreck their plans, and enhance the revenues of the commonwealth. Due to cost cutting measures by the state.

Watch your own license and registration renewal dates! Nobody else is except the police officers who have a ticket quota to finish.

My own personal hassle, inspection sticker on my car expired last month. took it in for inspection, and was not that surprised to have it fail, since the check engine light was on. Yup, fuel vapor leak. Then the kicker, the part to repair is was not available. New or used. So I'm waiting for chrysler parts division to get around to ordering a new batch of them from the manufacturer, get them made, pass QA, and then send me my part. All in the 60 day time limit of a emmisions fail sticker. I am not confident. *sighs*
