I don't believe it. In fact I am floored. I just went to the new DMV facility in downtown St Paul and was very impressed. There were people everywhere, but it was very organized. In and out, with business taken care of in 20 minutes. Unheard of.

I give all the credit to Obama.

I had pretty much same experience a few weeks ago. Only in my case, there were only about 10 people there at the time. My DL renewal cost $25. I pulled the little ticket and before I was in my seat, they called my number. I looked into the reader, read the 3rd line, signed a form, and moved on to the camera. Got my pic took, "click" and before I could get to the chair again, they called my name with my temp.

OUT THE DOOR IN 5 MINUTES. This does not happen in California.

How much is it to renew where you are from?

It's $43, plus $13 for the motorcycle stamp. Not cheap, but nothing in Minnesota is. It's a very socialist state.

The DMV here in Temecula is not all that bad. With an appt, you're in and out. Without an appt, 30-45 min. usually. That's not that bad, really.

The guy that bought my motorhome is a AAA member. We just drove to the Ventura AAA and transferred ownership (to include new tags) within 10 minutes. Beats the crap out of waiting at the DMV.

Ive been to hell. I spell it...i spell it dmv

Anyone thats been there knows precisely what I mean

Stood there and Ive waited and choked back the urge to scream

And if I had my druthers Id screw a chimpanzee-call it pointless

When I need relief I spell it thc

Perhpas you may know vaguely what I mean

I sit back and smoke away huge chunks of memory

As I slowly inflict upon myself a full lobotomy-call it pointless

Barbecues, tea kettles, gobs of axle grease

There comes a time for every man to sail the seas of cheese

Now, lifes a bowl of bagel dogs, but there are unpleasantries

Cold toilet seats, dentist chairs and trips to dmv-call it pointless

Ive been to hell. I spell it...i spell it dmv

Anyone thats been there knows precisely what I mean

Ive stood in line and waited near an hour and fifteen

And if I had my druthers Id screw that chimpanzee-call it pointless

Is that Devo??????????????????????????

Whip it gooood!!!

We need a United States drivers license....maybe Obama might agree on that and get it done....LOL

Before you go crazy Herf, I went to the DMV a year ago and was in and out in 8 minutes. That was during the Bush administration.
