Yeah, we're moving my mom's car in our driveway but our neighbors (who do not have a driveway) are out of town and their car is on the street. So... hopefully they won't get towed or anything!

I think the snow emergency call is totally lame.

A total parking ban is pretty drastic. Do they do alternate side of the street parking at all, Frank? That's what Madison does in the winter. Everyone parks on one side one day and the other the next. That way they can plow to one curb at least and leave enough room for two lanes of traffic.

What does a parking bnan mean? Where are the cars supposed togo?

Man, do I love having a nail place less than a block away. Pedi ahoy.

Salem has teeny tiny winding streets from the 16th century, so when they need to get plows through they need all the space they can get. So that's why they have the draconian snow parking ban... but in this case I think they are being pretty cavalier to the disruption this causes to many people for a pretty low amount of snow. On a weekend. When it will get warmer.

Indeed. And I live in a part of Salem where the streets aren't so teeny tiny, so doubly annoying. I already pulled the car in (the ban starts at MIDNIGHT! Fuckers!) because I suspect my landlord won't be going anywhere tonight, and if he is, I'll be up until then, but still. Total FUCKING ANNOYANCE. I sent an email to the city of Salem website to express just how annoyed I was (and mentioned I wanted to use much harsher language than I used).

Now tagless for your comfort.

My niece sent her kids over to my sister's house knowing they had head lice and didn't say ANYTHING to my sister. My sister found out when she took the kids to get their hair cut.

WTF? Who does that to someone?
