In California you can be declared "Legally" blind but still have a portion of your sight thus allowing you to get a license and drive.


Whatever you do though DON'T use a programmer on your truck because that is illegal.

Things that make you go HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM.

What about candy vending machines. If you can't see the product, how do you know what number to pick?

Hehe, sounds like an experience I had at work. I work as a valet, and we put one of our signs up at the end of our lane to keep cars from coming in the wrong way & causing congestion. Sure enough one lady pulls in the wrong way, so I tell her she came in the wrong way & to come in the other way next time. She tells me that we should have a sign saying that, and before I could say anything she tells me that our sign down there is too far out & you have to go around it to come in...I just said OK and gave her the ticket.

I guess they could bring their dog!!!!!
I once went sky-diving with a blind friend of mine; weirdest thing I ever experienced. Have you ever heard a German Shepard scream?

Several years ago at the height of the Mad Cow scare in England, my Mother-in-law declared that she would make sure any beef she ate was US raised. One day, she and my wife were traveling and stopped into a local Texas hamburger chain (Whataburger), and when she was ordering, she asked the girl behind the counter where they got their beef.

The response was "from the truck"

Sooooo..... as Ron White says "You can't fix stupid"

My favorite sign hangs in my garage: "I've finally met the perfect girl, I could not ask for more. She's deaf and dumb and oversexed, and owns a liquor store!"
