Crack me this Nut
Spike Jones 1

Why does a driver's license cease being a valid form of identification when it expires? Yes, it no longer permits one to operate a motor vehicle, but does one's name magically change once that fateful date is passed? Does the picture suddenly resemble someone entirely different than the person it's not a good likeness of? Do I care that I just ended that sentence with a preposition?

(Not my license, BTW; working where I do, it's no longer a hassle to renew my card(s) or tag — well, except for the fact that they don't take plastic, and there's no ATM in the building.)
