My guess was $150/wk. It's a harmless question.

There was a discussion on the number of people who roll through stop signs. Just about everyone said that they didn't. So I went to an intersection with McLin and Hendry and counted 100 cars and carts. 93 rolled through the stop sign when no cars were coming in either direction. I don't think it took a half hour. But the next time I hear that the majority of the people on TOTV don't roll through stops signs, breaking the law, I'll know better
I knew there was something missing in my life..........................
