I have been paying the price ( a high price) because of an accident caused by a drunk driver. Sometimes beyond the punishments on the sign, someone else has to be unfairly punished. - Nicole-B, Nov 11, 2010

Si una avispa entra en tu coche, hazte su amiga e invítala cortesmente a que se marche.

If a wasp gets into your car, befriend it and, politely, invite it to go out.

Was this an accident where the driver could safely "swim" away? :-) - pesta, Oct 25, 2010
Wow, I almost forgot to pray for your wife today Eddy. Thanks for the reminder!!! jeje - Nicole-B, Oct 25, 2010

I trust you realise this post does not represent my true thoughts. A mi me parece que las mujeres valen un potosí. - Eddy, Oct 25, 2010
I dunno, Eddy... I think if you set yourself up for attack with such a provocative statement, you should not try to weasel out of it with last minute generic compliments! ;-] - Gekkosan, Oct 25, 2010
That is funny Gekko!!! This does seem to be the strategy of many men, including my husband. That is why I identify with Eddy's wife...bless her heart. :) - Nicole-B, Oct 25, 2010
