Well, I pissed off a D'bag parker today
I had an appointment for a High Rev Cat-Scan today and the place that does it has pretty limited parking. Well, I drove my Suburban today since I had to pick up some stuff from PowderTech-Plus for one of the track cars, and my knee has been acting up too. As I pulled in, there was only one spot left, and it was right next to the end spot, but the idiot, didn't park near the curb, NOOOOOOOOOOOO, the parked over the White Line
So I backed my beast in, centered between the lines, but that left maybe 8" between my beast & this little suv, just enough for me to get out & walk around it to go in, course I wrote down the Tag # in case I found any damage, but since I broke the screen on my phone someone, I couldn't take any pix

Well, when I got out from my chest scan, it was still there, and while waiting for my copy of the disc, a 5' Squared woman(since there was a 1/2 eaten cheeseburger in the passenger seat, I knew she didn't leave the space for someone else to get out and was most likely a PIG, as that is the only type of person who leaves food in a car like that) walks out, big Rose tattoo on her rhino leg, but I was on a call (thank god for bluetooth) so I couldn't deal with her, although, as bad as the last few days have been I was already in a very pissy mood and what was she going to do, complain about MY parking in the center of the spot while she parked 4' from the curb Well, before I got to my burb, I see her marching back inside, very pissed off looking, and had I not had to get back to my office to take care of some work, I would have waited, but seeing how pissed she was,(there was NO way she could get between the two SUVs, and I would have thought she would have climbed in from the passenger side instead of going in to complain about someone parking too close) I headed back to my office to get back to work & order my replacement phone, chuckling all the way back. Yes, it felt good to piss off an idiot, too bad I was on the phone doing some consulting & had to get back to my office so I could let her ***** about my d-bag parking

"Two things jump out:
They parked diagonally, cutting off two spaces.
Jenson drives for McLaren-Mercedes, yet he's in a Porsche Cayenne. The Mercedes brass might have something to say about that.
It is fully possible that the car belongs to his trainer and not Jenson. But I would never let anyone else drive if I were an F1 pilot."

Why is Jenson wearing the world champion stripes on his jersey? Did he win a cycling related WC?
