Well, I don't blame you for what you're saying. You obviously have quite a bit of resentment towards people like me. Who wouldn't? I didn't start this thread to be scolded
I've had plenty of that in my lifetime and have become numb to it.
I guess I thought this was a forum where you can ask for free legal advice and people want to help you.
Btw, I live 30 miles from downtown Houston (which is still considered Houston). That city is so spread out that even if I lived downtown, it would still be difficult and expensive to get around. Maybe I need advice on where a good city (that's warm) would be for public transit... I'll look elsewhere for that info. Thank you for your comments, everybody.
Your chances of getting that license are 0%.
