Try and have a little fun every day:

[Jeff S]

I went to the store the other day, and I was in there for only 5 minutes. When I came out, there was a motorcycle cop writing a  parking ticket.

So I went up to him and said, "Come on, buddy, how can you give me a ticket for parking just 5 minutes.? He ignored me and continued writing the ticket. So I called him a pencil-necked Nazi.

He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tires! So I called him a piece of horse crap.

He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket! This went on for about 20 minutes .... the more I abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

I didn't care. My car was parked around the corner. I try to have  a little fun each day.  It's important.

Hi Jeff. That does sound like fun. Whenever I travel into Chicago or Minneapolis I look for tickets on cars near where I'm parking. I borrow the ticket and place it on my windshield. Usually keeps me from getting one unless I stay there too long. Another fun prank is to get into the non-automated lane on the toll-way when there's a car coming up behind me (trucks cost too much) I pay for my toll and tell them I'm also paying for my friend who's following. I watch in the mirror as they keep trying to pay and the attendant gestures in my direction. Most of those cars avoid catching up with me although some do and smile and wave. A few others have approached slowly and suddenly accelerate and pass as quickly as they can.
