You know you're in Texas if...
Monday, November 29, 2010 at 9:03PM We've now lived in Texas long enough to make some Jeff Foxworthy-esque observations about how people live in these here parts. The most interesting "you know you're in Texas if"? Parking lots. Apparently you can learn a lot about the patrons of a given place of business from the cars they leave outside.
Exhibit A.
This little number was parked half in, half out of a handicapped parking space with open windows, two snarling pitbulls, no license plate, and you guessed it, no disabled parking tag. Now to be fair, I recognize that it is probably a foregone conclusion that the driver of this clown car has some pretty major deficiencies, but I personally find it disturbing to think that this jackass is given license to leave his group home without his parking pass.
Exhibit B.
(Above: the sticker on the right says "To Do List: Pray, Vote, Buy More Ammo") I think this one pretty much speaks for itself. All that you need to know is that this truck was parked in the "compact car only" space at our local uber granola hippy provisions grocery Central Market. That's pretty much all you need to know about Austin--it's the home of both Whole Foods and this guy.
Thanks to these helpful reminders I stay aware of just where it is I have chosen to call home (at least for the time being). So here's to you parking lot douche bags, you keep me grounded.

make no mistake, the Sony awards do not give any recognltion to quality; they have been created solely for
the purpose of Sony exposure - the awards tend to be given to those shows with most audience pull.
