Help Help I'm Being Repressed!

The saga with the car registration and my traffic stops keeps getting weirder. I called the court in New Jersey to explain my situation just like the police officer told me to and they've got quite a different story for me. The cop said that I wouldn't have to appear since I live out of state and once I called and explained that arrangements could be made to avoid returning. When I called today the woman on the phone said that it was a mandatory appearance and I would have to come back to Princeton for court on Monday morning.

So I guess I'm going back to New Jersey to avoid making the situation worse and risk having a "failure to appear" warrant for my arrest in that state.

As the title of this suggests I'm feeling a bit like the peasant in Monty Python's The Holy Grail

By the way, you may want not want to take my comments too seriously, because I'm mad and I'll prove it to you. To begin with, a dog's not mad. You see, a dog growls when it's angry, and wags its tail when it's pleased. Now I growl when I'm pleased, and wag my tail when I'm angry. Therefore I'm mad. :)

so if you are mad, then shouldn't your avatar be the Hatter and not the Cheshire Cat? :)

Never mind...I had forgotten the cat's explanation to Alice that everyone in Wonderland is mad.

I know I certainly am. To quote one of my favorite storytellers "If we weren't all crazy we would go insane"

I more laid back than the Hatter. He's a little over the top (hat), no pun intended. :)
