WENDELL, ID- Wendell, Idaho resident Jacob Quincy, 29, succeeded in not running a stop sign at the intersection of 6th Ave. W and N. Shoshone St. while on his way to pick-up a sub sandwich. "I was amazed that [Quincy] didn't go straight through the stop sign like everyone else I see going through that intersection everyday," said Martha Newmann who was outside trimming her hedges as Quincy's 1998 Ford Taurus pulled to a stop at the intersection, and then continued on as he confirmed no other drivers were coming. "I'm not trying to be some sort of hero," said Quincy in the parking lot of Papa Kelsey's Pizza & Subs. "I guess I'm just one of those everyday heroes like police officers and firefighters." Quincy then got in his car and politely looked both ways down the street before turning onto N. Idaho St.

Is this an actual news article? If so, what the hell is the big deal with a guy stopping at a stopsign? And how, exactly, is he comparable to people who place their lives on the line every day?

Well, what's the point? A guy didn't stop a stopsign. Whoopie.

I think he's referring to the fact that NO ONE stops at stop signs these days. :)

I wonder if the mods will pull a drive-by on me.

I remember that there use to be a limit on how many characters you could have in the location field.

Did that actually happen, the flashing part?

You know, seeing how far you can push it until the mods limit it again isn't the wisest of ideas.

Just remember here is where any future trend started.

And I'm where it began.

Ho yah. I'm being copied. And I like it....it feels very kinky. :D


And no, I was never flashed. Thank God, I prefer people with their hands on the steering wheel than pulling up their shirts....kinda.

Wouldn't one on the wheel and one on the shirt be ideal?

If one pulls it up high enough you can see both, especially if you pull up in the middle of the shirt.

Then all I'll see is in-between boobies and the shirt will fall and cover the best parts.

This is true. There's an art to flashing, and only the more attractive females have perfected it. ;)
