I have swine flu I'm almost over it now but I'm glad its next week. I for sure don't have gas money this week, But thats not looking so good anyway. I have a BS 100 dollar parking ticket for not having a pass at Sauvies Island. I did have a pass it was dead center of the dash. I went to court to get it thrown out and they said I had to pay 20 bucks for court fees that had to be paid then. I spent the 20 buckes I had on gas to get to Columbia city then getting sent to vernonia. Neither were anywhere near Sauvies Island. Sorry for the rant but I had a parking pass. there only 3.50 or 11 bucks a year. I may be broke but I have 3.50. FTP. Sorry end rant. but they sent me a thing saying if I don't pay by the 30th there going to suspend my licence. 100 bucks is a bit much also. I also don't even see the reason for a parking pass. not like they maintain the beach, or pay park rangers with that money.
