BTW Babel what was the point you were trying to make, that you can't park? Even when noone is around???Either way I forgive you! Last edited by Jessnick at 22-Nov-2004 17:46

If it's gas only why did you wait ten years for it ? but captures wasted energy as well. There is so much I could say but it's just too easy. I'll let it pass Some days you're the pigeon and some days you're the statue. Remember that age and treachery will always triumph over youth and ability.

superlion Mega Fish Posts: 1246 Kudos: 673 Votes: 339 Registered: 27-Sep-2003	Right after I got my liscence, I drove my dad to the grocery store. Parked a tad crooked. He (being a perfectionist) got out of the car, took the keys, and straightened the car out. Sheesh, I hadn't been driving for that long at all! ><>

Babelfish Administrator Small Fry with Ketchup Posts: 6833 Kudos: 8324 Votes: 1570 Registered: 17-Apr-2003	Na superlion that's your artistic side coming thru. shrug I take the time to park properly when it's important. When no one else is going to use the space,only time those spaces would be used is if war suddenly broke out and the entire news staff for both the AM station where I worked and the TV station as well as the rock station across the hall had to come in, might as well have a bit of fun . ^_^ H2g2 2005 Don't Leave Home Without it[/font] Last edited by Babelfish at 22-Nov-2004 17:25

superlion Mega Fish Posts: 1246 Kudos: 673 Votes: 339 Registered: 27-Sep-2003	I've been known to errr... park "creatively" as well. Probably more due to lack of experience than anything else though. ><>
