LOL. Brings back a memory.

In the "old days" at the paper the photogs shared darkrooms. There were a few guys - who will remain nameless - that kept their darkrooms stocked with libations to sooth the soul!
And one in particular who would go to a local bar most every night he was on duty and park his car on the sidewalk if there was no parking space.
It was not uncommon for the night city editor to get a call from the bartender telling him to come get the guy out of the bar and his car off the sidewalk!

Ah, those were the days.....
