That's yhe recommended use of the parking placardss here; I got mine & a note
said, "If you're having a good enough day to use a different parking stall,
please do so & leave the accessible ones for those in worse shape."
When riding with as friend, I'll get then to drop me near the entrance themn go
find a patking space elsewhere (I keep my placard in my pocket unless it's
really needed for me--not for them)

Yup, baby followed bathwater into the sewer. .

I love those; came across a bunxch in texty format on this echo near 20 years
ago -- prolly still have them on my IBM486 in the closet.

& I'm of the belief that mere mortals cannot copmrehend the immortal nor
infinite in any describable way, & I leave everyone to their own metaphors...
If their metaphorical beliefs lead to the harming of others, I can easily
disprove them, otherwise -- have at it!
I'm reminded of the

I love that one!

Ellen Degeres did a bit where she phoned up God to ask about the mosquitos,
paused as if listening, & said, "Oh, no, I hadn't considered all those working
in the perst control industry."

One of my fave Cosby bits, but all are tainted now, sadly, by what he became.

Red flag for psychopath warning!

I went to a boxing match & a hockey game broke out! It was almost a shock!
Butr fair is fair, I guess. . .
I don't watch nor play sports. Ok, sports involving barely dressed shapely
fenmales I might watch for artistic appreciation, of course. (like figure
skating -- gymnastics, too, until I found out that they retire at age 11!)
