To adapt a line from Blazing Saddles: "License? We don't need no stinkin' license!"

And now LAPD isn't even taking their cars when they catch them driving without a license.

It depends on what you are looking for, If you are looking for ghettos and gang banging Arkansas will not be for you. But if you love the outdoors and all the wildlife lakes and rivers maybe Arkansas will be for you,

Some people probably wouldn't dig on Arkansas. I would consider it.

Not sure if there are enough jobs - I couldn't move there if there if I couldn't find a job AND if I didn't have a Plan B and Plan C. Maybe there are. But I'd have to have jobs and backup jobs.

I'm sure there are nice places to live there.

For a fair comparison, I know Huntsville, AL has jobs and has nice places to live. I would live there.

Here's a quickee look at potential employment in aerospace out there.

boeing OR raytheon OR lockheed OR northrop loc: little rock, ar - Google Maps

Ark has some beautiful country & would be cheaper to live then ca.But i would think the wages are quite less in ark.Ark is home base of walmart.My favorite place to shop & the cheapest overall.heres a example of walmart.A 1 gallon can of roof sealer is over $15.00 at the local ace hardware store.At walmart the exact same product is $8.00.A cat scratcher is 11.00 at a local pet store on upper yucaipa blvd across from stater bros.At walmart the exact same item is $5.00.Shop walmart & not in town.You save a bundle.

If this state tests parallel parking skills as other states do with their driver's license road tests, I'd flunk for sure. I know how to do it in theory, but in practice, it's a whole different story.By the way, can anyone here parallel park with no problems on the first try?

I hate parallel parking.I have scraped my tires quite a few times over the yrs.The white walls & raised white letter tires took a beating.Ill stick to blackwalls for now on.

I can but I'm in an area where you have to parallel park at least several times a day. I first got my drivers license in Thousand Oaks and when it came time to do the parallel parking portion of the test they had me do it on a street without any cars. Talk about being too easy. They should have at least set up some cones or something.
