Kyyle23 Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I think you might be able to go to the IDOT website and get it taken care of without the email. You have a month after it expires though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texsox Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 I just graded the last final. It's all over except for the paperwork. Then a week off. A few weeks of training. A writing project in New Mexico. Family in Chicago and Wisconsin. Another training. And we start over again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that they quit charging late fees until they start sending out the reminders again. This was only after they collected millions of dollars in fines between January and March. Between January and March 2016, Illinois vehicle owners paid $4.9 million in fees for renewing their license plates late, up from $2.2 million during the same period in 2015.

Balta1701 Posted June 9, 2016 Share Posted June 9, 2016 Depending on weather, the current leader for "World's largest rocket" will be launching in 1.5 hours [/url(12:59 central) and the launch will be webcast. The payload is a National Reconnaissance Office payload which means we don't actually know what it is and we're lucky we know there's a launch. If weather blocks the launch they'll try again on Saturday. This is a genuinely neat rocket to watch go. It's thought that this is one of a series of NRO satellites that head out to geostationary orbit positions (at a large distance from Earth, where they orbit the planet once for every time the planet turns and thus stay above the same spot on the planet, the same distance as weather satellites). There are a group of satellites out there that are visible from Earth if you know where to look, which means they have to be huge. If this is one of them, then it probably unfurls some sort of transmission catching antenna that is about the size of 3 football fields. This is the actual mission patch for the launch: Edit: Launch delayed until 1:55 CDT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At my campground a couple of weeks ago I had a friend tell me about a website that will let you know when the ISS will be visible. He said that it would be visible that night at 9:02 PM for about 6-7 minutes traveling from the SE to the NW. It was a perfectly clear night so we stood out and watched and sure enough at 9:02 we saw it. We got to watch it travel across the entire sky. It was pretty cool.

Mike Fossum is from where I was living and we have a few mutual friends from Boy Scouts. I happened to be a one friend's house when Mike called him. I look at the other guy there and said "I thought he was flying". He was calling from the ISS. As a kid growing up in the 1960s that was pretty cool.

He_Gawn Posted June 14, 2016 Share Posted June 14, 2016 Soaked some sliced flank steak in orange fanta last night. Woke up and put it in the crockpot with a 1/2 cup of salsa.. A bowl of weed and 8 hours later, it's the best pulled beef taco I've ever had. Neat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
