    Default Beware the Ides of March.

    That's today. Some say bad things happen today. The Roman's made it the day to settle debts monetary and otherwise.

    So anything bad happen to you today? Maybe you had a bad shave day. Maybe a car wreck, who knows.

    No wonder my Husky was hiding under the bed all day.

    Just because some famous person in the past had a bad day today does that mean today is any better or worse for the rest of us peons?

    My teenage daughter got her driver's license.

    So my brother bought her a 25-year-old Toyota, for her "first car."

    Our auto insurance bill went up $900/year.

    Then the Toyota failed the smog test.

    Daddy is drinking tonight.

    In most cases once your kid gets a license insurance goes up car or no car. A license is enough reason by itself.

    At one time if a gal got a license insurance didn't go up much while a guy got you gaffed.
