Retailers should be pretty desperate this year.

I think I'm getting up early and heading out for something I don't really need this year...

So me and my girl go to downtown Houston last night to have a few drinks and walk around for awhile. I've only parked once down there. So I know you have to go get a ticket from a parking meter and then put it on your dash.

So I find a spot, park and walk over to the meter. Its not working. I see a HPD officer at the corner and I asked him if we had to pay to park there. He said no, that it was free after 6pm and I was good in my spot as long as I wasn't in a handicap zone.

We walk back down the block and as we get closer to my truck there's a fat bitch writing me a ticket. The Houston Parking Authority. I go up to her and ask what the deal was. She tells me that I'm parked in a Taxi Zone. So naturally I ask where the farging signs are. She points to two...one at the beginning of the block and one at the end. And they are pointing TOWARD the sidewalk from the hurricane winds.

I was not out of the truck 5 minutes. Just walked down to talk to the cop and to check the parking meter and this bitch greased her fat ass out of her Prius to write me (and everyone else parked there) $40 tickets.

I told her what I did and the cop said it was cool and we cannot see the signs...nothing. I told her I would move right away and she pulled the good ol "I already started writing the ticket" schtick.

So I asked if I could keep it there since I just paid Snyder-like prices to park. As long as I leave the ticket on my window, she told me.

We ended up checking out the Aquarium, having a few drinks and then leaving.

When we got back to the truck there was another HPA person writing tickets. This time a guy...I told him the situation and he was like "what a bitch, she could have canceled it".

So I will be in Parking Court on Monday to talk to the judge.

Ninjas are farging dead as... dead. Pirates, they're coming back in a big farging way.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

Let them eat bootstraps.

I'm still concerned about the Pirate to Ninja ratio and the direct correlation with Global warming

this is wild! how can this be happening?

I boarded the Sirius Star in 98' when I was part of the VBSS team on the USS Stethem. We had to perform random inspections of ships traveling through the gulf to make sure they weren't smuggling anything.

So she went and picked out a cat. I avoided having to go because she had to leave at 7:00 AM on a Saturday morning.

So she asked me to go pick it up when she gets back from her native country continent of Australia. This would entail sitting through a couple hour lecture of how to care for the demonspawn. Telling her that I already know how to get a cat off my lap was enough to get me out of this one, but then she asks if I'm going to be mean to it. Apparently acting like the thing doesn't exist is being mean and I will hurt it's feelings.

I'm wondering if hairless cats have any natural predators that I could get for a pet, like an owl or something

How about a dingo?  She could bring one back with her?

Also, if she thinks ignoring a cat makes it dislike you, she obviousy doesn't know cats.  I'd try smothering the thing with affection (or with a plastic bag), which will drive the thing away from you sure as shtein.

Overfeed it a lot. Make it look like a naked midget and she'll want to get rid of it.

Customs makes it a PITA to bring animals into foreign countries, but that would be great to be able to chide her, like she does me, for screaming "a dingo ate my baby."

You better be right (empty threat) because I really don't want to shower that POS with attention and have it backfire.
