Short Term Courier Van Insurance: Planning to work a few extra shifts for a week or two? Opt for one week van insurance or 7 day van insurance.
1 Month Van Insurance: Have a seasonal upsurge in deliveries? Secure 1 month van insurance to ensure uninterrupted coverage.
5 Day Van Insurance: Need temporary cover for a specific project? 5 day van insurance provides the perfect solution.
And it’s not just delivery vans that benefit! Whether you’re using a camper van for a weekend getaway or need temporary van hire insurance for a short-term move, temporary van insurance offers the flexibility you need.
Benefits Beyond Flexibility:
Temporary van insurance goes beyond just providing short-term coverage. It often includes:
Comprehensive Cover: Get peace of mind knowing your van, goods in transit, and third-party liabilities are protected in case of an accident.

Crash into my life - Lance Stroll x Civil Servent! Reader
Plot: You work in a fancy government job, pretty boring 9-5 but Lance Stroll and his insurance claim makes your job that little bit better
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Your job wasn’t exactly fun, wasn’t exactly boring. It was one of those jobs that you’d got it at a young age and worked your way up through the ranks as you’d got better and better and because it was safe and something you were good at you stuck with it.
To keep it short and sweet you were a civil servant. Not like 007 kind of crazy stuff but you did work for MI6 in their fraud, tax and insurance department.
You basically took over insurance claims that were over a certain threshold and had to go through the government for … whatever reason whether they are a foreign National claiming in the UK or something.
Usually it was boring matters such as Chelsea Football Club claiming compensation for things as simple as water damages etc. You didn’t even really get to see anyone, you had the data and you analysed it against the scenario and hey presto you made your pay out.
Your favourite time of the year was winter. More claims came through and life was more unpredictable thanks to the whether. Delayed train into London St Pancreas? No tubes working so you have to make the 20 minute walk to your office building from the station. Slipping on ice, it was the only excitement you got in life which was honestly kind of sad.
For you it started at as a normal Monday. You woke up at 7am, brushed your teeth, got into a nice corporate appropriate outfit, got on the train, got a coffee from Pret before heading into your building.
That was your routine, and you didn’t often differ from it unless you had holiday booked. But working a 9-5 Monday - Friday often meant that you
But it felt like there was a different buzz today around the building like there was something going on.
When you all went into the morning briefing for the cases you’d get today, everyone was way too excited for 9am and the start of the day. You sat down next to your office buddy Shiv and looked around confused.
“What in earth is going on with everyone?” You ask looking over at Shiv who’s typing away on her laptop taking in information.
“Apparently there’s some really interesting cases to work on up for grabs today” she explains and you nod knowing once every blue moon some exciting things would crop up and have the whole office acting like kids on Christmas.
You’re all still waiting for the department boss to come in, joining in conversations about what could possibly be happening today.
“Ladies and Gents please take a seat for the meeting to commence. Thank you. Thank you” he offers smiling and everyone gets comfy.
“So we’ve got some exciting stuff today. I’ve formed a team to deal with the Train Networks Claim, that’ll be Shiv, Brayden and Ravi” he says and they all nod writing in their pads what tasks they’d have to do today.
He went through all of them apart from you, before dismissing the meeting. You were slightly confused and therefore packed up yours things a little slower than everyone else to see if you could stay behind and ask why you hadn’t been given an assignment.
“Y/N could you stay behind so I can talk to you for a moment” he asks and you nod, going to the end of the long conference table where he was stood.
“I like you, you’re young and learn quickly and I want you to progress more than you already have so I’m giving you a really important case. You’ll actually get to meet the said person affected, he’s … of high value so be considerate of your wording when talking to him. Alright thank you, here’s the case! Have a report to me by Friday” he offers and you nod happily. You take a seat opening up the material seeing the name of the claimer immediately.
Lance Stroll
You read through the facts, apparently he crashed his Aston Martin driving down the M1 to get to Silverstone into some sort of government van.
After analysing some of the data yourself, a knock comes on your office door from one of the younger interns.
“Erm, Y/N there’s two men in suits here to see you?” She asks rather than tells you, it wasn’t common for people to come in and out of the building due to the confidentiality of the work conducted here.
“Send them in please, but before you do ask them if they want anything. Tea, Coffee, Water” you smile and go back to reading another report from a police officer who was on the scene of the accident.
You watch as two men walk into your office space. One looking younger maybe the same age as you and one looking significantly older which you assumed was the dad.
“Good morning” you smile lightly before going back to some data on your computer. They took a seat, patiently waiting for you to address them.
Lawrence, who you’d just read about in the report who was indeed the father, cleared his throat as if to get your attention.
“Give me one minute Mr Stroll and I’ll be right with you” you smile, still nose in your computer.
“We’ve come all this way to the city centre to see you it would be appreciated if you didn’t waste our time” he huffs and even just from this reaction a bubbling of excitement started in you, just at the promise of actually seeing a client and talking to them in the flesh.
“I understand that, but I won’t be able to tell you much unless I see all the data” you say looking up at them through your glasses. This time you notice Lance and how he’s just sort of staring at you.
“Can I help you Mr Stroll?” You ask looking over him.
“No, I’m all good. Take your time” he smiles and you nod. In 5 minutes you believe you’ve combed through enough data to talk to them.
“This is awfully interesting I almost never get to see the people behind the claim” you smile happily and they both nod.
“Okay so so far from what I can see is there was a crash in your vintage Aston Martin that was for an event at Silverstone, the race track and that you got into a collision with a government van trailing a foreign national?” You ask.
“In short terms, yes … but” Lawrence tries to declare.
“And you weren’t present Mr Stroll” you say looking in the direction of the older man.
“No I wasn’t” he huffs out.
“Okay, then I will ask you to just step out my office while I get an account of the events from your son, if that’s alright with you. Just down the corridor there’s a waiting room there, help yourself to the food and drink in there” you smile hoping to butter him up a little to get him out.
“Alright” he says before taking his leave.
“Okay Mr Stroll lets…” you start but he interrupts you.
“Lance, please just call me Lance” he offers and you nod.
“Well Lance, it’s not … looking great” you start of slowly and he looks at you shocked.
“What do you mean? Your guys went into me?” He says raising his voice slightly and you give him a stern look that has him sinking into his seat.
“Don’t come into my office and raise your voice when I’m doing my best to help you!” You exclaim placing a pad in front of him.
“Sorry it’s just that my dad isn’t happy already that i totalled a car that was needed for race day” he sighs rubbing his temples.
“Ahhh so you’re an F1 driver. Or is it NASCAR because of the accent?” You ask and he looks shocked as if you were supposed to know who he was.
“Er F1” he offers and you nod.
“You any good?” You ask writing done some more notes as you watch the camera on the government vehicle as Lance’s car didn’t have one.
“Excuse me?” He chokes out and you couldn’t help but laugh a little.
“Well I mean im currently looking at your claims for a super car that you totalled and so I can’t help but ask if your any good” you tease and once he heard the tone he gets it and just rolls his eyes.
“Oh haha laugh it up” he says and you do.
“Im sorry but this is quite possibly the most fun I’ve ever had in this job. It’s rather boring most days so I’m just making the most of it” you smile and he smiles back.
“Okay I can see that they did in fact turn into you. And of course I’m here for the people. The issue is where your Canadian. I can pay out what the car was worth when you originally brought it, but 50,000 for the fact that it was an accident on our part” you say and he thinks for a moment.
“No” is all he says and you look over at him in shock.
“Sorry? What do you mean no, no is my final decision” you say crossing your arms.
“I would like to add something else to the 50,000 on top of the car value” he smiles and you nod, wondering what it could possibly be and admiring the boldness of his statement.
“Id like to take you out to dinner” he smirks and your head shoots up from your laptop.
“I- i cant do that… it’s not professional. I could get told off. I could loose my job.” you admit knowing that if people were to find out about your payout and think it was bad then they’d be asking questions to you.
“Oh come on it’s just dinner to say thank you for being so … helpful” he smiles leaning forward in his seat and you shake your head.
“Fine, dinner it is” you smile.
That was the start of something way bigger than just dinner.

Alright I’m still alive a day later so LOOK! First pass of Taaco from TV! Everything but the hat and the cape came from the closet and the shorts say IDGAF on the butt but the cape covers them 😔
Tumblr media
My first magic trick of the day was taking off the bra I wore to drive down without taking off the corset or shirt
My second trick was applying kinesiology tape to bind the tiddies down again, without taking off the corset or shirt
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Success rates??? Not great, I’ll grant you, but I got a couple inches off and they stayed in place with no bouncing even when I ran for the 5 hours of con! So still better than the bra
(You are not supposed to tape the tiddies for more than 4 hours the first couple times you do it apparently and this was attempt 2 so even that was pushing it, especially in 30 degree heat. I go hard or go home)
These boots also have the highest incline from toe-to-heel that I’ve worn to a con, since all my taller shoes are platforms and reasonably flat which makes them super easy to run in
Only had one minor spill while chasing down a t-rex but those photos are all on the camera so they’ll live on Insta when the time comes
The ding dang bracer that closed fine at home on two magnets decided if I was gonna move my hands it now needs 3 to keep it in place, so I’m fixing that today
The criminal in question:
Tumblr media
Aaaand the purple and blue pouch I sewed at the con while waiting for passes, so I think I really had a very Adventure Zone day all around
The hat? The hat crushed it, 0 problems except one attempt to take flight on our way back to the car, which I caught by the curtain wire sooooo I gotta tighten the attachments on that before I put the curtain on cuz it pulled a lil bit
Worked like a charm though, held it above my head for the dealer’s room, weighed nothing (comparatively, hence taking flight), and for the first time in 4 years I spent most of a day outside without getting sun sick
For the first time I did need to bobby pin this wig, which I shoulda seen coming given the hat. It did also keep trying to eat my ears, the pin, my earrings, and anything else that came near my head though so she may also be getting rowdy
The cape jingled merrily all day so even if I was a lil slowed down no one had to worry about losing me! 😁 all in all………. Them boots ain’t coming to Yeticon I would PERISH on the hills, but I have a couple possible substitutes
I’m hoping to have the curtain on by then though! Soooo depending on some imminent updates, we’ll see if the hat comes to con again 👀
We also watched a truck hit a soccer mom ass van and crack the damn windshield in half literally right in front of us rather than wait for the van to move over another foot so it could get through, because some genius decided that if he had to get to the back of the con at 5pm on Sunday through THE MAIN PARKING LOT he didn’t have to show up early or anything
To arrive on time. At the end of the con. On the last day.
You could barely swipe a credit card between their bumpers with how close he was tailgating the van, and then when staff came to direct an opening to slide the truck down the middle he couldn’t wait 5 more minutes for the car to actually get out of the way, sooooooo hope he liked the extra 2 hours and insurance calls
Lucky for us, we could get out of the parking lot the other way and I warned everyone in line behind him that they’d had a crash blocking that lane so they’d have a chance to turn around
I’m never parking back there again I’ll eat the $15-$20 to park at the hotel across the street for Sunday and anyone wanting a ride home with me can chip in
We actually did alright though, only took us one hour to clear the parking lot, despite lots of assholes and some poor indecisive souls who all seemed to think indicating was a polite request, not a declaration of intent

Housed For Now!
[New]
AS OF DECEMBER 20TH, 2023, WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT OUR NEW LANDLADY WANTS US OUT WHEN OUR LEASE ENDS IN FENBRUARY. EDIT Dec 27th 2023: We just learned that she's adding an electric garage door to the garage. Her ex-husband is working on it with an electrician friend of his and I overheard them. She doesn't intend to move in, she wants to add the small ass garage onto the lease and thinks it's worth adding another $1K+ dollars to the rent.
[Old]
Dave just doesn't get how finances work. Because he's so unhelpful and doesn't fucking listen when people speak, he's whining about how after getting paid, mom has nothing left for the month. "But we don't have to spend $230 on the storage unit anymore!" "That went into other bills, Dave!" He thinks that cuz we don't have that one issue holding us down, we're going to be able to handle everything else easily and have money left over for whatever he wants to waste it on. Because mom has had to pay one bill and let another slide as a result every month. It's how she's had to handle our financial problems this entire time. And people all over have to do things like this, it isn't a new tactic.
Mom finally paid off the bank after Dave bounced her account several times last year. She's been paying $100+ a month for ages to get that handled. That should make things a little easier now.
The car insurance has increased by several dozen dollars so it's over $150 a month now. (EDIT: Dec, 2023: It was increased again.)
Her phone and Bethy's phone have to be kept on because of her schooling and we need a functioning phone number or else we'll be in big trouble in many ways. $100+ just for 2 phones. Dave is in charge of his own damn phone.
She has to handle her Discover and Capital One cards since she's had to use them to save our asses a few times. She NEEDS to pay them off so her credit score doesn't tank, and many places won't give you a chance if your credit is low. She's got monthly payments for those around $100+ in total.
The P.O. Box price has increased. Almost $50 now. (EDIT: Dec, 2023: We had canceled it since we finally got a place to live, and now we'll need to get a new one. I'm so tired.)
Dish Network has been on pause or almost 2 years cuz she can't cancel it before the full year she paid is used up or the fee is astronomical. They keep suspiciously unpausing it and trying to lob thousands in fees at us. (EDIT: Aug, 2023: Mom finally got it taken care of by going to the Better Business Bureau with dozens of emails of proof for her case and they came down hard on Dish Network. So we're fine on that front now.)
Then we have gas for a minivan, that Dave should be paying for, but isn't. A mostly full tank is around $80 every 4-5 days. Gas is average rn. So over $400 monthly in gas. (EDIT Dec, 2023: $20 gets 4 1/2 Gallons right now. It is hell.)
We need the part for the van which is $800+. The van is just so old that finding parts for something considered an antique now is damn near impossible, and not having the money up front makes it worse. (EDIT: Dec, 2023: The van is dead and despite how the alternator was replaced and the battery and starter are fine, there's no vehicle.)
She has to pay for her medication cuz we have shit medical. She's already going without many of them but some health problems, like Asthma, can't be ignored so the inhalers are prioritized. (EDIT Aug, 2023: Our medical changed out of nowhere at the beginning of the year and all of our doctors no longer take it. No doctors take it, in fact, so our attempts to get better help have to start all over again.)
Bethy needs school supplies regularly.
But Dave just thinks that she should have all this extra money left over at the end of paying everything off. Many of these things come out instantly on the 1st of each month btw. She has to then work through what is left for the bills that aren't instantly paid off. He thinks if he works with his friend for 3 weeks, he'll have enough money for an apartment, completely ignoring that he'd only have about $1800 for a full month of work with no breaks. The cheapest 2-bedroom in Delaware requires almost all of that, which is why we're waiting on housing which charges based on your monthly income. Even if he handled the monthly rent of $1400-$1700 for a 2-bedroom, mom still has all this stuff to worry about... and then gas, water, electric, sewage, etc... Dave doesn't listen. In public housing, those things are included. Outside it, they are separate expenses.

[NEW Dec, 2023]
I was right to keep on my toes about this. Dave does not read or pay attention and he just rushes into things without thinking. He's made every excuse possible to defend this lady saying she'll see how clean the house is a let us stay, but when she made a point to say she's thinking of moving in here, she isn't looking for a ruined house. She already has the reason for why she wants us out and she put it in writing, and it's because she claims to want to live here now. She doesn't need any other reason; she owns the property and that is good enough.
So, we have to be out by mid-February, which means more moving. And we just have no money and nowhere to go.
[NEWER Mar, 2024]
We need food, heat, hot water, etc... and Dave's getting scammed by a blackmailer that he's now given over $3K to... His dumbass was cheating, as he always does, and within a few conversations felt safe enough to tell this bitch all his personal business, as well as everything about his kids and grandkids. And now, cuz he offended her, she did a search on him and found his family and is how holding them over his head to Apple gift cards.
Yet he stomps in the house every day demanding to know if anyone 'gave us money'. And then got mad when mom finally snapped at him with, "No, actually Helen has gotten any commissions this month, so there's nothing in the PayPal." All cuz Dave doesn't want to admit that I've brought $16K in just through commissions alone.

The Twisted Crimes of Catholic Priest Hans Schmidt
Tumblr media
January 28, 2024
Hans Schmidt was born in 1881 in a Bavarian town called Aschaffenburg. It was said that both of Hans' parents sides of the family had struggled with mental illness.
Hans was beaten by his father as a child and often watched his mother get beaten too. Hans also had a fascination with drinking blood and was interested in bisexuality. He was also fascinated with the death of animals, often watching farm animals die at the village slaughterhouse.
Hans was ordained as a Catholic priest on December 23, 1904 by Bishop Kirstein, despite many people believing he did not have the proper morals or mental capacity to do this kind of work.
Hans began molesting altar boys, was having affairs with various women, and was involved with sex workers. Many fellow priests complained to the Bishop about Hans, and eventually he had to move to the US in 1909, as they stopped giving him parish assignments due to the complaints.
He was assigned to St. John's Roman Catholic Church in Louisville, Kentucky, but was soon transfered to St. Boniface's Church in New York as he got into it with a senior pastor.
Hans met a woman named Anna Aumüller in New York in 1912. She was the housekeeper of the church and had emigrated from the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1910. Hans later claimed he had heard a "voice from God" telling him to love Anna. Anna originally turned down Hans, but eventually engaged in a sexual relationship with him.
In December 1912, Hans began a secret sexual relationship with a New York dentist named Ernest Muret. The two men began operating a counterfeiting ring together.
Hans was then transfered to another church in Harlem but it did not stop him from keeping his secret relationship with Anna. The two even got married secretly, a ceremony Hans performed.
During sex with Anna, Hans later said he received a command from God, telling him Anna needed to be sacrificed. Hans said it was very persistent so he told Anna and she called him crazy. Anna began pregnant shortly after this.
On September 2, 1913, Hans went to the apartment him and Anna had been pretending to live in as a married couple. Hans slit Anna's throat while she was sleeping and then drank her blood. He also raped her while she bled and dismembered her body, throwing pieces of it into the river.
Anna's torso washed up on Cliffside Park and Weehawken, New Jersey. Hans had used a pillowcase to wrap part of Anna's body and there was still a tag on it. This was traced to Hans, after he had bought the pillowcases on August 26, 1913 using the name A. Van Dyke.
Police staked out the apartment for three days, but Hans did not return so they broke into the apartment to search it. The floors had recently been scrubbed, but dried blood was found on the walls. A bloody knife was found in the kitchen. Men's clothing with the name A. Van Dyke sewn into the clothes were found, but letters in the apartment were addressed to Hans Schmidt.
Lots of the letters were sent from women in Germany, but most of them were sent from Anna. This led the police to the address Anna had provided, but she was not there. They traced everything back to Hans who had admitted immediately that he killed Anna.
Hans plead guilty by reason of insanity. Due to his family's history with mental illness many thought he was insane. However, many people who interacted with Hans did think he was sane. This led to a hung jury in December 1913.
The second trial began two weeks later and it was found that Hans had actually taken out a $5000 life insurance policy in a woman's name of Bertha Zech, who was posing as Anna.
On February 5, 1914, after three hours, the jury found Hans guilty of first degree murder. He was sentenced to death. In December 1914, Hans admitted he was faking being insane during the trials. He also accused Ernest, the dentist he was having an affair with of accidentally killing Anna while performing an abortion.
On February 18, 1916, Hans went in the electric chair at Sing Sing. In a muffled voice, his last words were saying goodbye to his mother. Hans' family wanted to ship his body to Germany, but because of World War I it was impossible to do so. Hans was buried in New York, but his family requested that the location be a secret.
Hans has been suspected in at least 4 other murders. He had been seen with a woman named Helen Green, who then disappeared. She was never found. Hans was also seen with a woman he claimed was his wife when he first moved to the US. This woman disappeared.
The apartment Hans lived in he was seen with a 5 year old boy in his living room by the owner of the building. Hans said the boy was his son, but he then disappeared. He told the owner his son's name was August Van Dyke.
Hans was a suspect in the murder of 9 year old Alma Kellner, whose body was found burned in the basement of St. John's Church in Louisville, Kentucky, which he worked. Her body had been burned and the killer attempted to dismember her.
It was eventually discovered that the church janitor, Joseph Wendling was responsible. He was sentenced to life in prison, but Alma's uncle requested for him to be pardoned and he was deported to France in 1935.

when life gives you lemons... and drama
Hey you guys, quick odd update
My husband is an electrician, he works for a solar company.. or let me put it this way he is quitting today, and starts a new job on monday.
Here's the drama, this job that he is quitting offered him a company van, and a really good payment arrangement, its a family business, that installs Solar.... we tried to give them the benefit of the doubt since the owner is a family man.
So they never gave him the van... my husband had to use our mini van for work, he traveled a lot and never got paid for the gas... that was at least 100$ a week, he filled our van with tools and work matterial.... didn't really fit. The company didn't offer safety equipment at all even though it was discussed so many times so the team would not fall off the roofs. There was no regular scheduling.... there would be no work up to 4 days and then 2 large projects, and no communication...Heck in 5 months that my husband has worked there he saw so many people quit and not get paid. well last week the company lost some material and tried to make my husband pay for it, even though its not his fault or responsibility.
Thats illegal and when he told them no, they refused to pay him his 15 days worth of work and still have the audacity to ask him to keep working without paying him.
They actually had him fix other peoples errors as well before and never paid him, even though he was using his van and gas money to go to the work.
Thats why he has been looking for work, for the past 3 months and he got a new job yesterday and starts monday.
But the problem now is that we are so behind in bills, and since he did not get paid and they refuse to pay him (even tough they still want him working) Now we are in a bad position with money since we dont have any more savings for the bills or savings, and this economy is terrible.
We opened a case with the State Labor commission, because one way or another he is getting his paycheck! and we are also contacting OSHA! This is me being petty because I am so angry, they risked not only my husband but all their employees safety. They don't care if someone falls off a roof installing solar, and they wouldn't pay for accidents, looks like they dont even have insurance.
So as you can imagine we are very stressed, I don't know when he will be paid. Even with the new job it will be 15 more days from the start to get paid at all. so as of now we are looking at month with no income.
So.... Im thinking on doing another sale.. or something. Im a homeschool mom, and we have 2 small children. To have a babysitter its so expensive and we just don have that or daycare money.
So thats what's going on... any advise is welcomed, we have never been in this situation

There is no means to an end.
(a self-para for Malachi Howahkan. TW blood, gore, murder)
It's the endless drone of old fluorescent lights and the maniacal beeping of the fire alarm, low-battery. Everything ends, but it doesn't mean you know when.
And the annoyance will continue, and continue, and melt your mind away, until you put a stop to it.
It's with this thinking that Malachi Howahkan murders his wife with an axe in the back of their small Prairie-style Craftsman in mid-January.
His life has not been his own.
It has been Alice's, turned to dinner parties and board game nights. Stockings hung with care, two tiny tots, soccer practice, and the backyard grill. The ole ball and chain. "Can't live with him, can't live without him!" The baby showers, the anniversaries. A mini-van and a house with a foyer.
He works as an insurance agent. 9-5, casual Fridays, water cooler chatter and group synergy. "Workin' hard or hardly workin'?"
One day it's easy to just take the axe and swing it.
Easier than the time it takes to type in his client's yearly salary and figure out the percentage still owed.
Easier than picking up Bobby from violin.
Prison is not easy. It's threats and shouting and shoving. Too much time alone to think about every aspect of his wife's dead body, the blood coming from the chunks he cut out of her. Officers with too much power, men with too much anger. And boredom.
When he gets a letter, he assumes it's one of his kids. But it reads of a man infatuated. Questions about his life and how it fell apart, and more importantly, how he can piece it back together for Malachi.
This meager connection is a life raft in a tsunami. Mal holds to it like a man possessed. Until his fingers go raw and bloodied, he'll cling to every letter sent.
Polaroids on sun-bleached film, chopped brown hair tied with an old rubber band. Tales from the outside.
It's back and forth for years.
One day, the folded letter Malachi sends has a piece of twine tied into a little loop perfect for a finger enclosed inside. He asks him to marry him, and promises a better ring when he's out.
It's years later that Malachi Howahkan walks out of the New York State Penitentiary in the dirty clothes he walked in with over 20 years ago. Released early on good behavior. Cash that Mik had sent for snacks from the commissary buys a bus ticket straight to his husband's apartment.
Once he's there, he never leaves.

I would absoloutely love to spend a day in a Inmate Transport RP, shackled and chained in the back of a car with prison uniform. Do you know someone who does those kinds of rp's? It doesnt matter where they are
Hello. I am finally able to respond to your question!
I am a huge fan of "Diesel Therapy" which is the euphemism used by departments of correction for frequently transferring problem inmates from facility to facility and for taking long periods of time to get there!!
I would absolutely be interested in creating this style of roleplay, but there are some concerns.
It is not illegal to wear a prison uniform but it is illegal to pretend to be an officer, so the guard has to be very careful during the drive
2. Since this roleplay would happen in a moving vehicle, there are inherent risks of an accident or traffic stops.
3. We would need to stay in proximity of the jail for bathroom stops, breaks and emergencies.
4. Driving for long periods is tiring and we would need built in breaks or multiple officers / drivers.
5. Regular role play is $400 for a 24 hour period. If a van is requested, there would have to be an extra charge to cover rental (last time it cost $600 for a van). This could be reduced by multiple inmate roleplayers interest in this type of play.
6. We also have to consider insurance, gas and other expenses when calculating cost for this kind of play.
7. Riding around for an hour or two is frankly a miserable bitch when you are restrained. Every additional hour would just add to it. I doubt anyone would make it 8 hours by choice!
This is a photo of a recent roleplay involving multiple inmate players.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
It has been an exciting day. 4 babies were born in my bathroom to a pregnant cat we found just one day ago. I left my best friend Lumen at the kennel where I work and my daughter and I headed to Oklahoma to visit my sister whom I have not seen since Fall of 2021.
We made it 4 hours before my van transmission died and stranded us in the middle of nowhere Missouri on I-35.
Luckily my insurance has roadside help and the nicest tow truck driver dropped us at a decent hotel and took the old van to a dealership on the road in Bethany Missouri. I am still paying off the now deceased rebuilt transmission that is only a year old. It could be a cable but I know, in my heart, it is the transmission and the warranty was for only 6 months.
A friend offered me her spare car until we can figure out a replacement. My brother in law is picking us up and taking us the 4 hours to Oklahoma. We are going to make the best of this and spend time with my sister before renting a car and heading home on Sunday.
This was supposed to be a much needed, low cost vacation. I really just wanted a break before my farm job kicked off in April. I know I should just rent a car and go home.
Cut my losses and be responsible.
My sister cried on the phone when I told her we might just head home. She is 18 years older than me and I miss her. I spent years pushing her away because of my ex and I can't get those years back. Seeing her is more important then doing the responsible thing right now.
I can live with the guilt of letting my debt go a little longer and I know that I will "pay" for this decision, but I am going to push that all aside and give her my full time and attention for the next 5 day.

The Next Round Approaches: An Intriguing Prospect
Tumblr media
Dearest Readers,
As we draw nearer to the next round of the Survival Games Bracket, one cannot help but feel a certain thrill in the air—a heady mix of anticipation, dread, and unbridled curiosity. The first round has left us all with much to ponder, and dare I say, even the sharpest among you may have been caught off guard by a twist or two.
First Poll: 1. 2.
Perhaps living the Life of a Fancy Nomadic Hobo - or Family Van Vlog, in other words - serves for some extra Experience points than a chef who can barely keep track of a Van. As Aranis seems to have taken the lead with 8 votes while Frost was left with 5.
The same vote count applying to the right side of the bracket, with Soldano being estimated to have probably punched his way through survival, beating Edevane by 3 extra votes.
Second Poll: 1. 2.
Now, we move onto the battle between two scientists; one of biology and the other of psychology. What Valerian lacks in immunity and iron, he makes up for in military training to beat someone as sharp as Ziegler by a whopping 9 votes over her 5.
Definitely the most pitiful poll result yet, we have Shinmen beating Liáng's 1 single little vote by his 12. Ouch...
Third Poll: 1. 2.
Allow me to provide a physical display of what this hypothetically would look like;
Tumblr media
That is Swanson failing to 7 votes with only 4 in her possession.
The battle between the brains and the brawn, unsurprisingly insured Rossi's esteemed victory of 7 votes over Eischen's 4. Will this one be recorded in the history books or will Eischen go unnoticed once more?
Fourth Poll: 1. 2.
Although Sherwood was burned at stake and Andrew seems to either be suffering from amensia or a time paradox, this witch's brew seems to have beaten Perkins' acting skills by an admirable 11 votes over his 3.
This knight may have burned down her village,but he cannot burn down the fragment of braincells she acquires more than him to have earned herself 9 votes over his 5.
Fifth Poll: 1. 2.
And let us not forget our traumatized veteran, Vrban, who, much to the delight of those with a taste for the unexpected, has emerged from the shadows and into the light to fight against the toxicologist, Kadin with a single extra vote to take the victory of 8 over 7.
The next challenge, however, is one that was most entertaining for myself. Even with Fontenay having the psychical capabilities of a soaked kitten, one who fought in the musically beloved June rebellion is fiercer than a royal who was served everything upon a silver platter. That would be a 9 over 6 votes, if only it had been reversed to make the most comical joke.
Sixth Poll: 1. 2.
Never doubt the nature of a whore because they can be out for more than one sort of bodily fluid when cornered! With that being said, Rascuis topples Becu with 11 votes over 4.
One who hails from a historical time period quite literally has double the life experience, and with that Isayev has pushed past Onasis with 10 votes over 4.
Seventh Poll: 1. 2.
The dashing Captain, who so effortlessly charmed her way through the initial skirmishes, now finds herself facing an opponent of equal cunning and charm the ever-elusive Cowboy Vargas. Nonetheless, she remains victorious with a close tie of 8 over 7 votes.
The debate of whether a mechanic would be enough against an athlete was decided upon a vote of 11 over 4.
Eighth Poll: 1. 2.
Last but not least, the challenge between the towns favorite platonic couple! With Costs taking the reigns with 6 votes over 4, likely due to his experience as a poor little Brazilian boy.
To top it all off, we best not hope Miss Roosevelt plans to join presidency one day with only an embarrassing 2 votes for her first ever ballot against Ella's 7.
Tumblr media
It is not just a test of strength or cunning, but of our own discernment, dear readers. Each vote cast is a reflection of your understanding of the delicate balance of power, the art of survival, and perhaps, a little of your own heart’s desires.
Who shall emerge victorious in this round, and who will find themselves consigned to the annals of history as a mere footnote? The game, my friends, is afoot, and it is you who shall decide their fate.
Until next time, when the results are revealed, and the scandals continue to unfold...
Yours most sincerely,
Miss Gossiper

Temporary Van Insurance for Business Purposes: Flexibility and Cost-Effectiveness ?
Tumblr media
Temporary van insurance offers businesses the flexibility and cost-effectiveness they need to manage their fleet efficiently. Whether you require coverage for a single day or up to a month, temporary van insurance provides the protection you need without the long-term commitment. Here’s why it’s becoming increasingly popular among businesses in the UK.
Flexibility: With temporary van insurance, businesses have the freedom to tailor coverage according to their specific needs. Whether you need insurance for a one off delivery, a short-term project, or to cover a temporary increase in workload, temporary van insurance offers the flexibility to adjust coverage duration and level as required.
Cost-Effectiveness: Opting for temporary van insurance can often be more cost-effective than traditional annual policies, especially for businesses that require coverage for short durations. Instead of paying for a full year of insurance, businesses can save money by only paying for the period they actually need coverage, helping to minimize overhead costs.
Quick and Convenient: Temporary van insurance policies can typically be arranged quickly and conveniently, allowing businesses to get the coverage they need without the lengthy application process associated with traditional insurance policies. This speed and convenience are particularly beneficial for businesses that need immediate coverage for urgent or unexpected situations.
Coverage Options: Temporary van insurance policies offer a range of coverage options to suit different business needs. From basic third-party coverage to comprehensive insurance that includes additional benefits such as breakdown assistance and legal expenses cover, businesses can choose the level of protection that best aligns with their requirements.
Temporary Situations: Temporary van insurance is ideal for businesses that operate in seasonal industries, experience fluctuating demand, or have short-term projects or contracts. Instead of committing to a long-term insurance policy that may not be necessary year-round, businesses can opt for temporary coverage to meet their immediate needs.
In conclusion, temporary van insurance offers businesses the flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and convenience they need to effectively manage their operations. With customizable coverage options and quick arrangement processes, it’s a practical solution for businesses seeking insurance for short-term or temporary situations in the UK.

Tour de France Femmes - Stage 5
After four stages and three days, the Tour de France Femmes finally crossed into France, where it would finish in Amneville. This was a lumpy stage with five categorized climbs, and many teams had breakaway ambitions. The strongest of the breakaway attempts was a trio of strong riders up the road in the latter half of the race. Fem van Empel (Visma Lease-a-Bike), Loes Adegeest (FDJ-Suez), and Julie Van de Wilde (AG Insurance-Soudal) worked together well and stayed away for a long time, with van Empel scooping up the bonus seconds near the end. The biggest news from this portion was how much Gaia Realini (Lidl-Trek) appeared to be struggling at the back on the short climbs, not a good sign for her GC prospects before we even got to the mountains.
Tumblr media
The story of this stage, however, was not one of the breakaway versus the peloton, but of the cruelty of this sport. In an unassuming curve 6km from the finish, a relatively high-speed crash in the main bunch took down some of the top riders, including yellow jersey wearer Demi Vollering (SD Worx-Protime), Ruby Roseman-Gannon (Liv-AlUla-Jayco), polka-dot jersey Puck Piertese (Fenix-Deceuninck), and Pfeiffer Georgi (dsm-firmenich-postNL). It was a bad crash, with some riders taking a long time to get up and others—including Georgi—not getting up at all, abandoning the race. The images of the crash were not pretty, and we will not reproduced them here.
Vollering was up relatively quickly, but didn't get back on the bike for a while, as she looked to be in pain and had visible tears in her shorts showing road rash on her hip. With the crash outside the 5km mark, all Vollering could do was remount and try to chase back on. We don't even think she got a bike change, and she didn't have any teammates to help her for quite a while, until she reached Mischa Bredewold who could help pull her on the flats.
Up ahead, the parts of the peloton that had survived the crash soon caught the breakaway, and Kristen Faulkner (EF-Oatly-Cannondale) sparked the winning move off the front. Only Blanka Vas (SD Worx-Protime), Kasia Niewiadoma (Canyon-SRAM), and Liane Lippert (Movistar) could join. As they came into the sprint, Lippert attacked from behind, but Niewiadoma and Vas jumped quickly on her wheel and came past her, with Vas the faster of the two. Vas' reaction shows her mixed emotions on the day for Team SD Worx-Protime.
Tumblr media
Behind, it was a race against the clock, as Demi Vollering fought to limit her time losses. She was moving quickly, but was in visible pain at the line and after the stage, though she did her cooldown as usual on the stationary bike.
Tumblr media
Although Kasia Niewiadoma didn't win the sprint for the stage, she moved into the lead on GC after her strong performance yesterday and today, and will wear yellow tomorrow. We can't feel bad about Niewiadoma in yellow, she certainly deserves it, but even she would probably admit this isn't how she would prefer to take it.
Tumblr media
We're a little disheartened with this crash, and hope the riders will recover. Like we said above, this is a cruel sport sometimes, and it's very off-putting. Not everyone was badly hurt—Puck Pieterse was walking around with seemingly boundless energy, throwing flowers to the crowd, despite skinning her chin, hands, and knees. But the overhead images of Pfeiffer Georgi will stay with us for a while, and only time will tell how well Vollering will be able to recover before tomorrow's increasingly mountainous course.

Auto Transport Process: What to Know
Learn how the Auto Transport Process works and what to expect when shipping a car to or from another state using a car hauling service
Tumblr media
Shipping a vehicle, whether it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned shipper, can seem like a complex process. Understanding how auto transport works and what to expect at each stage can make the experience much smoother. This guide will walk you through the entire process, from requesting a quote to the final delivery of your vehicle.
1. Requesting a Quote: How to Get Started
The first step in the auto transport process is obtaining a quote. Most auto transport companies offer a simple and straightforward quote request form. You’ll need to provide basic details such as the type of vehicle, the origin and destination, and your preferred transport method (open or enclosed carrier). Once submitted, you’ll receive a quote that outlines the cost and details of your transport.
2. What the Quote Includes: Understanding the Details
When you receive your quote, it will include all the necessary information to help you understand the specifics of your car shipping service. This typically includes:
Vehicle Details: The make and model of the car(s) being shipped.
Carrier Type: Whether you’ve selected an open or enclosed carrier.
Origin and Destination: Where the vehicle will be picked up and delivered.
Pickup Date: The estimated date for pickup.
Vehicle Condition: Whether the vehicle is operable or inoperable.
Quoted Price: The total cost, including taxes, tolls, fuel, and insurance.
The quoted price should cover all essential costs, so there are no surprises later on.
3. How to Reserve: Booking Auto Transport
Once you’ve reviewed your quote and are ready to proceed, booking your auto transport service is the next step. This is typically done online through a secure process that guides you through each step. You’ll confirm the details, choose your preferred payment method, and finalize the reservation. It’s important to double-check all information to ensure accuracy before confirming.
4. Carrier Dispatched: Receiving the Dispatch Notice
After your reservation is confirmed, the transport company will assign a carrier to your vehicle. You’ll receive a Dispatch Notice that includes important details such as:
Dispatch Date-Stamp: The official date your vehicle is scheduled for transport.
Pickup and Delivery Dates: The estimated dates for both.
Carrier and Driver Information: Details about who will be handling your vehicle.
Payment Instructions: Any remaining balance or payment due at delivery.
Contact Details: Information for your assigned dispatcher.
This notice keeps you informed and prepared, ensuring you know what to expect as the shipping date approaches.
5. Pickup Process: From Contact to Loading
When the scheduled pickup day arrives, the process begins with the driver contacting you to coordinate the pickup time and location. Upon arrival, the driver will conduct a detailed inspection of your vehicle, noting its condition in a report. You’ll sign off on this inspection, and the vehicle will then be securely loaded onto the carrier.
Throughout the transport, you can expect updates on your vehicle’s progress. This communication helps keep you informed, reducing any stress about the process.
6. Delivered to Destination: Completing the Journey
As your vehicle approaches its final destination, the driver will reach out to coordinate the delivery. Upon arrival, the vehicle will be carefully unloaded, and a final inspection will be conducted to ensure it’s in the same condition as when it was picked up. After any remaining balance is settled, your vehicle will be handed over to you, completing the transport process.
Understanding the auto transport process can make shipping your vehicle a much easier and more predictable experience. By knowing what to expect at each step—from getting a quote to final delivery—you can ensure that your car shipping experience is smooth and stress-free. Whether you’re shipping a car across the country or just a few states away, following this guide will help ensure your vehicle arrives safely and on time.

Tips for new drivers
As someone who has seen so many people not know how to drive- and watched people get in wrecks for doing stupid things
1. Do NOT fuck with semi-trucks
I don’t care how Savvy of a driver you think you are, or if they’re driving like an ass
Do not drive next to them (this is annoying for people trying to pass, and dangerous. You ever see those big chunks of rubber on the side of the road? Yeah that’s because sometimes semi truck tires blow out.)
Do not break check them
Do not ride super close behind them
They are much bigger than your car or truck or van, they have massive blind spots- If you get onto an accident with one YOU are going to be the one injured or dead. Pass them quickly.
2. Use your turning signal
Even if you don’t think any one is close enough to you for it to matter- use it. All it takes is one car to come flying up from nowhere and if you try to get over and they don’t know, they will hit you.
3. Give motorcycles some space
this is the opposite of the semis- I don’t care how much of a dick that guy on a bike is being. Give him space- because if you get into a collision, you could kill them. Even if it’s not your fault- you will feel HORRIBLE about it for the rest of your life. Give them space, do not try and cut them off, do not break check them, etc.
4. Slow DOWN in bad weather
I know people who thought they were safe in their big four wheel drive trucks who then spun out on the ice and smashed into a railing.
If it’s pouring, if it’s icy, if it’s snowing- SLOW DOWN! Put your hazards on if you have to and stay to the right. Hell- pull over if you feel like you need to.
Let people honk their horns at you and flip you off. Getting home safe is more important than anything else. It’s not uncommon for people to go pretty slow in bad weather- just stay out of the passing lane
5. Assume everyone else is the world’s worst driver
You need to be ready for people being horrible drivers. Always. Check to make sure someone isn’t going to run that red light before you go, give that car ahead of you some extra space in case they don’t use their turning signal or suddenly break, do not ride next to other cars in case they swerve.
I do not care if the accident wouldn’t be your fault- you may think
“Oh I’ll let them hit me- their insurance might just pay for me to get a new car!”
You could die. You could get seriously injured. That irresponsible driver might have kids in their car that could get hurt. And yeah- that’s not your fault, but why wouldn’t you want to try and avoid that from happening if you can?
6. Get off your phone
Even if you think you’re the best person in the world at texting and driving- all it takes is one little thing. One kid darting across the road, one car slamming on their breaks, one especially deep puddle, or something in the road- and suddenly you’re driving headfirst into a tree or ditch.
7. Driver to driver communication
Sometimes- people will make gestures. They mean different things in different situations
-flashing your brights or hazards, this could indicate a ‘thank you’ for letting someone get over or merge. Or it could be someone trying to let you know of an animal crossing the road- and or other hazards
-waving at stop signs or intersections etc, this usually means someone is giving you the right away. This also applies to pedestrians at crosswalks. It’s a simple ‘go right ahead’, but if you take too long they might go anyway.
-Horns. Horns don’t always mean ‘Fuck you’, although they might! They might also be someone trying to alert you of an imminent hazard- especially during the day. If you think you’re doing everything right and someone honks at you- take a look around. There might be something they see that you don’t
-revving engines. This could either be them showing off- or if they seem to be looking and trying to talk or gesture to you- especially at a stop light, they might be trying to race you. Do not race people. This is in fact- illegal and dangerous
8. Don’t slow down on the highway to exit UNTIL you enter the exit lane/ramp
This is more of a personal thing than anything- but this was also told to me by both my drivers instructor and the class I took.
If you are getting off the highway- don’t slow down ON the highway. There are people BEHIND YOU, a lot of which will probably have cruise control on. Wait until you enter the Exit lane and then slow down.
Ideally you wait until all four tires are in the lane- if the lane is too short for you to slow down fast enough- at least get over quickly and try not to slow down too far ahead. If you must, make sure you have that turning signal on so people know you might slow down.

On the one hand I'm happy Daniel finally got a pool with water in it, on the other hand LA is like in a constant drought.
The kids are having croissants, omelettes and fruit for breakfast, which is very cute.
Espresso clink is my favorite
How long do you think it took between episode 1 and 2? Not like in filming but in actual canon? Because:
Tumblr media
That's a sign, and window decor. And Johnny's on a super tight budget. So did he just hand paint/stencil that all himself? Who made his sign so fast? I mean half the time signs take forever to go up. Also kebab places signage is totally different.
Miggy in his LA dodgers jersey is giving Daniel in his Halloween day outfit. It weirdly doesn't have a number. I don't know sports, don't they usually have a number?
The amount of interior work Johnny did is huge. Like he put mirrors up? The mats are down. His little silhouette karate guys are all over the walls.
Every time I see that box of trophies they're going to multiply. Now I see 5.
I think...despite everything his stencils were crooked:
Tumblr media
Maybe it's the camera angle.
Do you think Daniel and Mr. Miyagi had to fill out all that paperwork for insurance and certification before they opened out Mr. Miyagi's little trees? I suppose we never actually saw it open officially, just the set up, and they actually got a lease from a realtor, not a handshake with a dude outside of a strip mall.
Daniel spent his summers playing in a broken fire hydrant next to his Aunt Tessie's.
Do you think Daniel picked out Encino Oaks on purpose since he'd been there once? (It is supposed to be the same country club right?)
Amanda and Daniel like Dirty Martini's ice ice cold.
Aisha drives her father (Isaiah's) Q5
The summer party they're at they go to every year, so it's annual event with magicians and clowns.
Junior year Johnny didn't lose a single point in the All-Valley.
Miguel tells his mom he's on the debate team
Johnny recommends Guns 'n Roses and while doesn't seem to own a phone or know what one is does know what a ring tone is.
Kyler still has a bruise on his left eye from fighting Johnny, which makes me think not a ton of time has passed between episodes, and Johnny spent a lot of time decorating.
So Daniel drives an Audi but I guess they also have a big silver van, that he also drives.
Moon has a 'channel', I guess youtube channel? I wonder since it was originally a youtube red if they could've done a silly little spin off channel with extras and content.
One thing I've noticed, I don't think Daniel and Amanda have a lot of kitchen storage space, i.e. cabinets and what not. Thus:
Tumblr media
All the pots and pans and tools are hanging on the wall. The amount of noise that must make.
So Sam's in trouble for throwing a party, but it kind of looks like Daniel cleaned up the whole thing by himself. That's a weird parenting choice.
Newspaper clippings that Daniel framed include: "Mystery Dojo with Single Student Defangs Cobras" with a photo of Daniel and Mr. Miyagi and the other says "Local Valley Champ Defends Title Against Karate's Bad Boy" Which has Daniel versus I guess Mike on at the tournament.
It's interesting that the flashback lesson they show is of Daniel teaching Sam how to break boards. Since that's arguably the worst lesson he ever got from Terry Silver and not something he probably learned from Mr. Miyagi. It is thankfully something a whole lot easier than =what Daniel was doing in TKK3.
"Never give up your defense, beware the spinning hug move" is just so adorable.
Yasmine was driving a Range Rover that hit Johnny's car. And the fact her dad just bought her a new car...
I dunno, I don't think Daniel particularly over reacted to a bunch of strangers in his house and wearing his clothes and also Sam telling him she wasn't expecting him back so early and then he was the one to clean up and she's just sitting talking to her friends.
LaRusso Friday family dinners is cute.
I also like that they talk about the boys she texting.
Daniel tells Sam she's 'Jersey tough'...but she's born and raised Californian.
This school lunch is pringles, a banana, a hostess cupcakes, Organic chocolate milk and what looks like maybe a cheeseburger?
Tumblr media
Look at these babies (affectionate) and their yoohoo. They've also been given two trays and a plastic sporks. What is this school? Clearly you get some options because both of them got fruit cups (different types) and the main course differs since Elis got something else. I guess you also get to choose between pudding cups and hostess cupcakes? I did not get this many options in school. Also like most of the other kids who brought their lunch just have brown paper bags.
Sorry lots about the food but why would Miguel be offered organic Valley chocolate milk and these everyone in the above shot has yoohoo? Why are there that many chocolate milk options?
So...the popular girls drink apple juice from juicy juice and the nerds drink different brands of chocolate milk? Because literally everyone's drink choice is by table. Lol even Kyler has the same apple juice when he sits with them. What's with that?
Karate lesson one "cobra strike" which seems to be a lunge and the "bite" a punch to the nose, mouth or neck. Kudos to Johnny for getting an actual punching dummy.
I feel like this is the first little kernel of Johnny's 'some mercy' when he looks at Miguel after this example and goes 'uh for only extreme situations' rather than go for the throat.
Johnny did not correct Migue's hands. His thumbs are sticking out.
Robby goes to North Hills High and the vp is Carla Jenkins and Robby has molly on him.
It's kind of funny that Johnny doesn't know what that is, but also makes sense seeing as he rolled the tiniest joint on the planet for the first film.
Like Johnny Robby wears band t-shirts, specifically Misfits.
So plot issue. Small one. Johnny is literally only a few feet away when he's taking this phone call where he says he's this kids dad and yet a big sticking point later is that Miguel doesn't know Johnny has a kid.
Daniel being such a sweet infodumping foodie nerd with his fancy yanagi knife. He made: sashimi he calls "Larusso ponzo toro" which uhhhh is like the fanciest sashimi ever. Omg I didn't realize this is what he tried to feed Kyler before. This is like....wagyu. It's extremely expensive bluefin tuna. Holy moly Daniel what the hell? No wonder Sam and Amanda look so excited. That makes making it for Kyler who doesn't like sushi/fish so much more of an oof, that was such an expensive purchase.
Tumblr media
Is that the pickled ginger and wasabi?! They're huge! Daniel for the size of fish you got that's ridiculous. You gotta realize that's ridiculous right bud? Also is that just a bowl of soy sauce? Like a whole bowl?
Daniel didn't like sushi as a teen. (Then why the heck would you buy the rolls royce of fish for a teenage guy you don't know anything about other than your daughter is texting him????)
All these teenagers lying really get Johnny in even more trouble than he already is in.
Uh...so Miguel lives in what apartment 109 and Johnny lives in apartment 2. How does that make sense?
Johnny wrote down that the karate dojo is for teaching karate to anyone who wants to learn karate which is very...him since he doesn't kick anyone out and keeps Stingray.
Dojo is at 6 Herons Nest Reseda meanwhile his apartment is 7428 Saticoy street Reseda. Dude writes in big blocky all capitalized letters for everything which, thanks, easier to read.
So what is the idea here? Daniel leaves his fancy toro behind to go confront whoever owns the cobra kai studio? Is he expecting Johnny or is he expecting Kreese or heck even Silver? Did Kyler tell him any thing else? Did Daniel stay through finding Kyler some fish sticks or something?
They may have been awful Johnny but they were still teenagers.
Daniel is surprised someone is calling Johnny sensei. Like what are you expecting this place to be Daniel? A place without students? A museum? You thought Johnny just moved into a strip mall and decorated it like a dojo because that's gotta be what his house would look like? Or again, did he think someone else was the sensei and Johnny just happened to be around?
