Reply to Unregistered Vehicles by [deleted]
About five years ago the CT dmv got a new computer system and dropped a letter from my VIN when moving my car to the new system. I got a letter saying they screwed up, was told to return a slip with a check for registration, and all would be fine. I did this.
All was not fine. Ii turns out I never got another registration notice and ended up driving the car with invalid plates for over three years. I finally noticed that only our other car was getting tax bills and registration notices, so I got the first car emissions tested and re-registered it with a new plate last summer.
But what does this have to do with your car being stolen? Are you saying someone repossessed it? For this registration issue?

Not in a million years will I ever do this. Want to know why? Because the author put the words in a specific order, and I respect that.
You are insane.

No, but we can talk about how if you take cranberries and stew them like applesauce, they taste much more like prunes than rhubarb does.

It’s a shame because that isn’t what the book is about.

Connecticut is pretty friendly and accepting overall, everyone is welcome but like any state we have a few assholes.

@GovNedLamont: I’ve extended cold weather protocol an additional day through Tuesday, Dec 27 at 12 PM.
Anyone in need of shelter or a warming center should call 2-1-1 to find a nearby location. Transportation can be provided.
