When you go to a place ( For Example, like a school that has like
98%- White
5%- Black
2%- Asain/ Hispanic

Something like that. If you are like the black part or the asain part, you are a minority.

The typical cliques are:
popular/preps: great style or they all wear polos, they all shop at american eagle, forever 21, hollister, or abercombie they ussualy act funny and out of control

the plain girls: some of them shop at forever 21, old navy, or american eagle sometimes abercombie, they ussualy are kind of quiet but super nice (those that want to be popular but they arent "cool" enough.

Nerds/geeks: shop at gap, good will, old navy, the childrens place, they dont care about what they look like theyre just smart nerds

Emo: they are scary and shop at hot topic, they are quiet but they basicaly only say cuss words

just be your self and that will show you what group your in, if your not in the popular group then just ignore them dont try to be with them youll just make a fool of your self, hope I helped have fun : D

well my very first suggestion would be ebay, anything anyone could ever want is on there, if they don't have one. ask your local bike place they should know were you could get one.

talling November 2, 2010 at 1:15 pm

the scooters are for people that have difficulty walking a lot…and just because a person is fat doesn't mean they don't have a disability you can't see and even if they are just fat I would rather see a person that needs them using them (because that's what they are there for) instead of a person just using them for fun (which should not be allowed)

The DMV has nothing to do with MAKING laws. They ENFORCE the laws. To get a law made, contact your local assembly member or state senator.

With the VIN number, the Hyundai shop can create a new key for you. This is probably the best solution, because some time or another you will want a key for it.
