We get our permit at 14, and we have to drive with a parent / guardian for 6 months (if we took drivers-ed, or 1 year if we did not take drivers-ed). At 16, we get our Restricted License, which we can drive wherever we want, without a parent/guardian, but cannot drive after 10pm. Then at 18, we get our Unrestricted (under 21) license, where we can drive at anytime.
Potentially the longest thread in history...

Ezio's new shirt he got today.

Sad to be back at work after a 4-day weekend, but only a 4-day work week to get through
Had someone today who insisted there was no start menu to be seen, damn I love phone support!
"Please click the Start menu on the bottom left hand corner of your screen"
"No there's no start button"
"Are you sure?"
"Yep it's not here"
"Hmmm...well if you c-"
"Ohwait here it is"
mfw XD...T_T

Re: Today I have...
So, today I was presented another job opportunity in Germany. I really want to take it. I'm going over next week to spend a few days on the job and make my decision. The only thing holding me back is my family. My wife and son don't speak fluent German, so getting her a job would be nearly impossible, and he would struggle immensely in school, even with an exchange student program where he would take some classes in English. This has always been my dream, but now I just don't know if I can do it. Should I force them to go over with me and follow my dream, or wait and see if I ever have the opportunity again?

Re: Today I have...
It's not difficult to learn a new language, especially if you're surrounded by it. Might take a few months or so before they're semi-fluent enough to get around, but guaranteed it'll pick up fast from there. My sister's been in Germany for ~1.5 months, definitely has been the case for her.
I'd say the same thing as I said last time: go over a month early yourself, leave the family to start brushing up on their german and get things sorted at home, while you get things ready over there.
Germany is a nice place to live, and the distance from so many other cultural areas is great too. A 1hr $70 flight can get you into any number of other countries, I'd definitely want that for my kid. Travelling really opens your eyes in a way that not much else can.

Re: Today I have...
I have a friend who has just went up too Scotland for Work purposes yesterday, mite sound corny but I'll be missing him as we hang out all the time together. Apart from do My shopping, and bye a couple of lotto tickets nothing much happening in the World of Spud1200. To be quite honest I wouldn't Mind another PC, desktop to run along side this Laptop I have, been thinking about it for a while as I got rid of a load of stuff not so long back. As to which I now regret.

And this is why I don't believe in dual card solutions.
ASUS ROG ARES II 6144 MB Review | techPowerUp
1600 bucks for a card that does worse than its single card solution in games that obviously don't support Crossfire. I would be pretty ****ed.
