I have heard that the physics of Bizarro Planet are a little different than the ones here on Earth, though.

    Btw, I just heard on the news this morning that Madame Empress Queen Mayor Stephanie finally decided to begin upholding the law again. She's back to saying that the practice of putting debris in the street is illegal. I hope the people who put out trash cans with their house address on them are the first to get ticketed. I won't hold my breath, though.
    Who knows.
    Things are odd there...
    Maybe their cars can only go over snow in reverse?

    So you're saying that some people wait in a garage or parking lot downtown for someone else to clear the parking spaces in their neighborhood? Is there some kind of traffic cam on their home street that they can check online, or do they simply get a phone call from a friend or family member letting them know that a freshly-cleared parking spot is available to "steal"?

    Bottom line is that the city streets are not private, reserved parking.

    She's saying she knows her "limits" when it snows.

    Her "limits" are to go to work where there is no need to shovel, go shopping where there is no need to shovel and go home where she shoveled and no one else is allowed to squat or benefit from the hard work that she put into making sure she can get out to all of the other places where there is no snow.

    Or something like that?

    The storm has been over long enough now, parking spaces should be first come first served!

    If I spend hours digging my car out and someone is inconsiderate enough to park in that spot, I won't damage your car, but you would have to dig it out after I buried it.

    There was not even any snow in LA.

    Short-fused singer Chris Brown landed a punch Sunday night in a fight with rival singer Frank Ocean over a parking space, a witness told cops.
    Brown, 23, who is still on probation for beating up then-girlfriend Rihanna in 2009, was one of six men fighting outside Westlake Studio in West Hollywood around 8 p.m., according to the LA County Sheriff’s Department.
    By the time cops got to the scene, however, Brown and his posse were gone. Ocean reported the incident to cops — and later made sure the Twitterverse was informed, too
