Dear New York, that's what you get for trusting Chicago glue

Well well well, it seems the State of New York has a real sticky wicket on their hands, or actually a lack of one. The inspection and registration stickers don't stick to the car windshields, bad glue from companies in Chicago beg a couple of questions; couldn't you find a company in New York or New Jersey to handle such things (And hell in New Jersey we can make anything stick to anything, check out the sidewalks near Journal Square), and when you are pulled over here in the Garden State for not having properly adhered inspection and registration stickers, we'll happily sell you some scotch tape or Elmer's Glue at $2.99 a pop to 'assist' your compliance with the laws of the great state of New Jersey.

Think of the quick revenue streams, a Jersey cop could carry a case of scotch tape or glue in their trunks and sell it like an elementary school bad product showcase to raise money for new monkey bars, or in New Jersey's case, a new state government. We simply can't allow New Yorkers to ride through Jersey with non-compliant stickers---for their own good ya know.

So, until they get their act together across the Hudson (and some people there HAVE resorted to tape but not all have), Johnny thinks we'll have to ignore the New York Department of Motor Vehicles plea for a mulligan with law enforcement types and ensure proper enforcement of laws is happening here.

With apologies to Marge Gunderson in 'Fargo':

"And for what? For a little bit of bad glue. There's more to life than a little bad glue, you know. Don'tcha know that? And here ya are, and it's a beautiful day. Well. I just don't understand it."
