Driving

Driving ... but not right now. 

I know, I titled this blog as a journey from a Conservative to a politician's worst nightmare...but it's also my blog.  Journal.  Whatever.  It's one of those. :)

Oh, how many times I could've given one of those today!  Let me count the ways ... one ... two ... three ... Yeah.  Three.

You know those lines on the parking lots?  You're supposed to park your vehicle BETWEEN them.  Not halfway over them ... not with your tires ON them, not with your car SIDEWAYS ... but between them. 

In this case, it wasn't an F-150 as mentioned in the photo above, today it was a Lincoln Town Car, a rather new one from the looks of it.  It was parked SIDEWAYS taking up two spots.  Granted, it was off by itself in a little-used area of the lot, but still.

What makes it funnier (and poetic justice in this case) is when I came out of the store, there were two beat-up sh*tty cars ... one parked on either side of the Lincoln and their drivers and the Lincoln driver were shouting at each other.

The driver of the Lincoln was none too happy that he'd been boxed in.  For the record, before anybody asks, I had absolutely NOTHING whatsoever to do with this.  Seriously.  It was just really funny.

And poetic justice. 

Keep your car/truck/SUV/whatever it is you drive BETWEEN the lines, please? :)
