As somebody wise has probably said somewhere reputable . . . if you're going to get a speeding ticket, you might as well get it where the legal speed limit is 75mph -- say, for example, the middle of nowhere Nevada.

Officer G. knocked it down to the minimum fine because he's thinking of moving to Minnesota (I encouraged him, naturally -- to move, not to knock it down).

And for the record, we did not stop in Reno to win the money needed to pay the ticket.
