fact of the day

I just learned yesterday that to get a driver's license in Taiwan, you do not need to take an on-the-road test; but you do need to drive down a windy path, and then drive it again in reverse, without touching the edges. That explains a lot. I didn't mean that! I meant that Taiwanese drivers are phenomenal backer-uppers. Really. Jennifer can back into places I couldn't get into going forwards. Not that I'm much to judge from, I realize.
