#1 You just know that someone will complain that drinking [fast food] coffee while driving is a threat to everyone + national security + aids terrorists - only the Gubmint can save America from McDonald's and Juan Valdez.

#5 Anything on the floor under the driver is dangerous. Friends-of-friends, driving thru Alice Springs, had a can of WD40 roll under the brake pedal as they came up to a red light. They got hit by a truck, weren't killed but terrible injuries. I took a lesson from that one.

#6 Officer John Dimitres says the woman suffers from a quote -- 'unusual and extreme hoarding' disorder.

And I'm sure, up here in Mass., that rates her a "disability check".

#8 Severe hoarding is a standard flavour of Obsessive-Compulsive disorder. There are some very good medicines for that nowadays, but it usually doesn't get diagnosed until the sufferers are in their 40s to 50s. Get Miss Biglan to a good psychiatrist and she'll be totally cured within a year, probably less.
