17 states and DC require some sort of annual or bi-annual inspection for safety. (33 states do not).

31 states and DC require some sort of annual or bi-annual emissions inspection (19 do not). Of the 31, most of those are specific to certain counties, not statewide.

The places i've lived, MN and WI, have neither.

Now as for lifted vehicles of various types where some idjit has constructed frame and suspension parts out of cardboard tubes? I don't understand how those are allowed either.

That's the ones I'm talking about...

Have fun.

Push ups I can do, but my elbow pops. I'm not sure about that. My mom freaks when it pops, so I'm avoiding those until I know whether or not that is a problem.

My elbow pops as well sometimes. I've been doing push-ups for months and nothing bad has come from the popping so I'd just ignore it (and your mom).

Mixing some sit-ups into your routine will make your stomach look better if you lose weight.

Good to know. My main thing was wondering whether it was problematic. Sit-ups... I can do a hundred of them easily. The only thing with them is that they will make my stomach stick out more until I start burning the fat off.

Never understood all this lifting bullshit. Dropping? I don't see the point, but that doesn't put you up 6 extra feet in the air on an unstable as fuck tower made of ducktape and cardboard. Can't stand that shit. Especially when women do it!! I didn't know that was the new way to compensate for the fact you look like a man...

I think it's actually popping less as time goes on... maybe the elbow just needs to get used to the exercise. As for fat burning, you said asthma prevents using the treadmill and jogging. Can you swim? That's the best alternative.

Don't have access to water... I can run, but it'll take me a while to get used to running again. Its been like 3 years since I actually ran for exercise...

Oh 2TB hard drive... why must you make clicky sounds when you start up

No matter how many times I watch it, I still freak out every time I watch Bad Santa. Why, you may ask? I know one of the girls in it. She sits on his lap and cries or some such. Still freaks me out. She walks on and I'm like "OH, DUDE, I KNOW HER!!111!!!!"

She also did episodes of Barney. Her parents still don't allow her to see Bad Santa, despite how old she is.
