Handicap Parking...

"Handicap parking is the mirage of the parking lot" Sienfeld in one of his episodes...

How true... You are running late for a meeting you desparately need a parking spot... you circle around the whole parking lot once ... twice yet you do not find a parking spot near to gate.... so sad... then you see there are 5 parking spots free but alas.... THEY ARE HANDICAP PARKING ... what the ... You then circle around and find a spot which is nearest possible to the gate ...

Then you walk towards the building... in a hurry... you see those free parking spots and curse them ... or pray to god... please make me handicap... atleast I do won't have to walk this much...

Well this is OK... on top of this let us add snow with wind speed which is blowing directly in to you face... if you haven't experienced this come to Detroit, MI in peak winter ... you will curse even more ...

I have known people who go and park in the handicap parking just for the heck of it ... my ex-account manager is one of them...

I have known people who go and park in the handicap parking spot as the handicap parking spot lines (usually they are blue in color) were not visible ... well thats the reason I got ... I too was driving my corolla and parked my car in proper normal parking spot (read NON HANDICAP PARKING)... well that was quite a reason ... anyway who want to argue on that...

Some time I think I will get my leg amputated or probably slightly cracked or with connections in DMV or SOS get the handicap parking number plate ... a fracture would be ideal as I will get the plate temporarily ... though...

Handicap parking murdabad... murdabad.... !!!
