There was a time that NYC would plaster a giant sticker on the windsheild and driver's side window if they were illegally parked. The glue and paper they used were particularliy hard to remove. Have you ever considered immortalizing your words on a sticker and keeping them handy for occaisions such as thins one?

i've thought about it, suzette; but i decided that most times, it's best if my words just go away.

I once lived in a Chicago suburb that did the sticker-on-the-windshield thing. It was about 12 inches square, day-glo orange, and placed dead center on the driver's side windshield. It stated in big letters that it was placed there as a "courtesy" in lieu of a ticket for parking in a handicap space. That way, the inconsiderate bastards were easy to spot.

In front of our handicapped spaces we have a sign. "If you want my parking space perhaps you'd like my handicap too" They are usually left empty, with the execption of big expensive cars. Have you noticed that big expensive cars don't usually have indicators - must be a very expensive option!

I love you Stacey. Huge hugs.
