From my “office” in our apartment I have a nice view of the street below. Now, I don’t get some much of the Marching Bands, Naked People, and total weirdness that Pike-Dwellers get…but I do get some entertainment.
A Highlight of my morning is watching people park. There are three parallel spots in front of the building…oddly, only the center one seems to revolve at any regularity. Basically I get the Bad Parking Channel, 24/7. This is the one from this morning. Please note the large clearance in the front and negative clearance in the back.
This was the result of a solid 15 point parking job, executed over 10 minutes. Awesome.
