Just curious - why do you torture yourself with this drivel?


Good question.


Think I'll start a limo service or sumptin'

I got a limo drivers licence many lifetimes ago...;)


In MA, no special license is required for vehicles with less than a 15
passenger capacity. Regular driver's license in good standing is all you
need. I was really surprised at that, given the fact that everything
else in the world is regulated here. I guess they just haven't got around
to changing the requirements.

There are some exceptions. For example, if you transport kids to school
on a regular schedule, you need a special license. However, you *can*
transport them if it's not on a regular, repeated schedule. You also
need special permits to go into Boston, but I have no desire to do airport
runs.

Obviously though, you have to register the limo with Livery tags and have
additional insurance to cover the passengers.
That's what my insurance company is looking into right now. If the
insurance is ridiculously expensive, I'll forget the whole idea and just
use the limo for personal, family, friends, not-for-hire use.

mmm I've carried a chauffeurs endorsement on my drivers license (along with
a motorcycle endorsement) for the last 40 years.
I've owned two motorcycles and drove a number of loaners, but never did get
to chauffeur.

I like the whole family - seems like the quintessential American
experience with all it's warts and flaws.

Real life lived by real people.


Sure, but they were did a lousy job of parenting by letting their daughter
get pregnant. Shame on them. NOT.


Do we blame Harry's parents for him?

Same in CT. The only difference is that you have to have a valid DOT
physical on file.

I do, his father must not have shown him any love when he was young, so
he is desperately seeking attention from anyone, anyway he can.

Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Let's see - blower, custom headers, dual 950 Holley's, beef up the
suspension, street slicks - heck, might as well replace the engine
while we're at it - get a 454 CUI - roll cage (ok, that might be a
little much)...

Oh - those custom LED wheel covers...

I thought you approved of the job he was doing at boaters forum. I
think you said it was nice that someone was finally actually moderating
that group. What happened? He used his judgment as to what was
appropriate. Anytime that happens not everyone is going to agree with
him, but that is the way it goes.

Since you like the moderators at The Hull Truth and the Parker Forum why
don't you actually make some posts over there. Really you very rarely
use either forum. In rec.boats, you make more posts before breakfast,
than you have made ever made in the other forums. Why is that?
