Parking Ticket? Screw That. When I got out of work just now, I found a parking ticket on my truck.  It was for "parking with for sale sign"  I have never heard of such a thing... Sec. 157.08. Exhibiting for sale. No person shall place more than one vehicle displaying a for sale or exchange sign or notice on a highway in front of their residence. A vehicle shall be deemed to be displayed in violation of this section when found standing in front of a residence which is different from the vehicle's registration address. Such vehicle must be parked in full compliance of all other provisions of this chapter. (Code 1956, § 144.08; Ord. No. 17712, § 1, 2-8-90) Lying Bastards.  I was parked a long way away from any residence.   You can click the globe below to see exactly where I was. 11:31:03 PM    comment []

Mapping with location tool I have changed Brain Off's neat location.root tool code a little to make it point at a richer, layered map of Minnesota and I changed it to use UTM coordinates instead.  So I will use this post to point to where I went fishing on the Mississippi River a few weeks ago.  The next step is to add more fields for what layers I want and the magnification of the map.  11:20:53 PM    comment []

Number 6 Nearly Escapes Number 6, imprisoned for years in the spatial anomaly called sugar beet country, manages to get control of a beet truck and was about to escape when the master intervened and sent another beet truck to crash into the commandeered beet truck.  As usual, everyone is pretending they don't know what he is talking about. 12:11:24 PM    comment []
