Summer In The City And I Can't Find A Decent Parking Spot!!

During a horrendous thunderstorm yesterday in New York City this picture was taken of lightning hitting the Empire State Building.

There was apparently no damage to the building and the famous building recieves about 100 lightning strikes a year according to the Daily Mail. I just thought I'd share one of the most amazing displays of mother nature I've ever seen captured on camera.

Today has been a pretty slow news day. The weirdest story I have heard today was a man sent some dog shit in the mail attached to his parking ticket. Yesterday I received my third parking ticket, and if I had a dog the city of Baltimore might be receiving an extra special package with my parking ticket as well; However, I don't and therefore might have to improvise... Or maybe just send a damn check for $42. I cannot stand parking in the city, especially Baltimore where everywhere is 2 hour parking.

What I want to know is how do these meter maids know how long your car is there when there are no meters?? Are they just driving around in circles memorizing where each car is specifically placed? Maybe they take a polaroid of the street for reference. What a waste.
