I park wherever I please. (Not in fire zones) but I'll consistently pull right up to the front of a parking lot and jump out. I know that by the time a tow truck gets there, I'll be gone. Besides, my brother-in-law is the town's tow truck driver and he'll just tow it to my house for me!:D

I am a fine upstanding citizen and I never ever break any laws. You don't think I'll tell that I jaywalk with a cop in here, do you?

I have a terrible problem with red lights at deserted intersections in the wee hours of the morning. I drive home very late from work usually and reverse commute; I live in the city and work in an upscale suburb that goes to sleep at 9pm! EVERY single traffic light turns red at approach, regardless of the fact I'm the only schlub in the area not in pajamas. I routinely run them. Though my incredible luck ran out early this month as I blew through yet another suburban red light a police car whizzed out of nowhere and I was ticketed!! $75!!!! I was irate and referred to the officer as a mugger; Hiding in the darkness, stopping the only motorist in miles and taking my hard earned cash. He wasn't very receptive.

Actually it's supposed to be a seasonal speed zone. It's right in front of the baseball park. In the summer when tee ball and little league are going on you do have to drive that slow for all the traffic and little kids.
However at this time of year it's just a street (or to me it is)
I guess Allsups was out of burritoes or something and he had nothing better to do

I am a biker, and being such means that I am a fine outstanding citizen and obey all laws. And if I see anyone else breaking the law, I often report them to the local authorities.
I also go to church 3 times a week and attend bible classes once a week. In my spare time I dabble in real estate. :-6
Which reminds me, I came accross this sweet deal. This poor guy had to unload a piece of property really fast and I picked it up for a song. I would be willing to pass the deal on to the right person. It's actually a bridge and some property it's on. Ocean front property. In Arizona. Any bidder's????:-3

Oiy always dropping my kid off at school right smack in front of the sign that so eloquently says.... No unloading children. Hmmm something rebellious about me when I think of my children as a pheckin "Load" ahahahaha
Other than that breaking the law, not if I can help it.

Ummmm.....actually I did. That must get tiresome but these small suburban departments are just a tad too aggressive. He took his time in his car after he got all my info. OUTRAGEOUS!

Why do they take so long? Nothing better to do? I got stuck in a traffic jam the other day, it took over 30 min to move a mile on the highway. When I got up to see what the problem was, there were over 10 cops standing around with their arms crossed laughing and whatever else. There were no wrecked cars around at all, just flares in the middle of the highway and of course the wonderful cops having coffee and doughnuts in the middle of the road.

Except for, of course, the laws of grammar.

I often break the "Dogs must be kept on a six foot leash" law. I do this
because since becoming a 3-legger, my girl pup needs to move in her
own way on her own time, the balance is crucial to her ability to move
forward at all, and the weight of the leash is just enough sometimes to
pull her "off" slightly.
She is very obedient, although she has some hearing loss, she's still
aces with the hand signals (glad I taught her those!) and I figure the
law around here is hardly enforced but if someone did nail me for off
leash, I would just pay up like a big girl.
