Here?s something that?s been on my mind off and on all day, so I figured I?d throw this out there and see what you guys think.

Today I took the test to get my drivers? license learners? permit. When I was skimming the form you have to fill out to get the temps (assuming you pass the test <crosses fingers that I did>), I saw something that said (to this effect) that people with a visual impairment that required corrective measurements beyond glasses and/or contact lenses could not be issued a license. I think it even specifically mentioned being blind in one eye.

Instantly I thought of Wilt and that got me wondering: because of his wonky eye, would he be ineligible for a drivers? license? I?ve always assumed that his left eye was a glass one, since the pupil rattle around in the eye itself (although in a normal eye, the pupil is an opening in the eye) and that when Wilt blinks, it?s with only his right eye. This being said, I think the DMV would have to deny Wilt a license, despite the fact that he?s certainly old enough to get one. (That, and driving a car with only one arm might be a bit of a challenge?) However, I could be wrong-- this technicality (for want of a better word) may only apply to the State of Madne-- I mean, Alaska.
