really? our rego is due every year too, but you can pay using internet, phone, in person if you want, and it's only a single form and all you do is tick one box and pay - that's it

Having to pick up documents from one department of X to take them to another department of X. Idiotic really.

I'm probably the only member of the Round Table who likes bureaucracy. I even plan to go into administrative law when I pass the bar.

lol. Not yet I'm not. Money isn't the reason I'm going into administrative law. If I wanted lots of money, I'd go corporate.

Sheesh, in Brazil, bureaucracy is a law. :D That's so difficult to do anything. I won't be surprised if I'd go to the barber and he asked me to fill up a sign saying I'm authorizing myself to be there, and if I happen to be damaged on the neck it is all my fault, etc, etc...

I hate stinking beaches. Poluted ones. :disagree:

Yeah: and take away the crime, the trash, the bums, the guns, the drugs, the vacant, dilapidated houses and the crack whores, and North Philly would be the same as Manhattan. I'm not sure what your point is - his beach looked pretty damn nice to me.
