Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for March 10, 2015

Now, with all the miles of road to pick from, why would the driver pick the only parking meter? Or did it arrive with the meter maid?

There’s desert in Florida and Georgia?

good…I am not the only one this happens to..

I hate Tuesdays….

Hey, cacti!…If you like this cartoon raise your left arm….

Hey, what else is new??

Meters spring up where you stop, like virtual particles becoming real when energy is available.

What country is this? He’s driving on the left side of the road.

The ticket is for parking in the wrong direction.

Why is the gas station 2.5 miles off to the side of the road, for that matter? This is definitely “non sequitur” country…

Now why did that make me think of Keene, NH?

Where is the incomprehensible parking regulations sign? Oh, I bet it is behind that rock.

Must be another police department whose primary goal is revenue generation.

Of course; was it there when he left for gas? How did the meter jerk get there; or just waiting, that little contraption has ta rely on a charged battery; figure that.

Who says there’s never a cop when you need one?

I had a store in DC and one afternoon they installed posts for parking meters along the street. A few days later they installed the meters and following close behind was a meter maid that ticketed each car in the space as the meter was installed.

What, no AAA service?

“What, no AAA service?”~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Dam! I meant to renew.

Wiley is a genius. He just mixed gut-busting humor with an accurate description of the Chicago Police Department.

Stryk428: I noticed that too, and assumed outback Oz, but the saguaro is not found there, nor anything resembling it. Anyone out there can resolve this problem geographically?

With my luck, the tow truck would be just leaving.

Whenever trouble happens you can always count on the authorities to be there…if only to rub it in. Do not underestimate the dog-headedness of the properly trained gov’t bureaucrat. Duty first don’t you know? “Just doing my job.” Axiom for Murphy’s Law regarding gov’t “workers”.

Similar to an old joke about what you’d want to take with you if you were lost in the desert. You’d want a deck of cards so you could lay out a solitaire tableaux. Immediately someone would come up from out of nowhere and say, “Play the red nine on the black ten.”

Actually I was thinking of Chicago. Now all he needs is a red light camera.

That’s why they put the sign for gasoline there. So you would park there.

Anywhere you go in the world, parking enforcers are the most heartless individuals created.

Didn’t realize Segways do well on sand. That cop is lucky the sand didn’t swallow him.

Just like that Sunday morning at 5:30 AM when there was no one on the highway except me and the cop who gave me a ticket for speeding.
