I don't usually bitch about things on this blog, lighthearted as it is supposed to be. But today I can't help myself...
Have you ever noticed that most of the people parking in handicapped spots are not very handicapped? It seems like every year there are more and more reserved blue spots right near the door, and more and more people who don't really need them are parking there. Today as I walked across the parking lot on my way into the office I was almost run over by a woman driving an Explorer who ripped into one such spot at about 25 MPH and came screeching to a halt. Her handicapped permit dangled from the rearview mirror. The door flew open and she literally ran from the car to the door, almost knocking me over again. This woman was not in any way restricted or challenged (at least physically). How do such people get these permits? I think the rule should be "You know it when you see it". As a comedian once put it "In order to get a handicapped permit, you should be in such a state that people scream 'HOLY MOTHER OF GOD!!!' when they see you".
Ok. Back to our regularly scheduled blogging...
