Overzealous Traffic Cop Tickets Cars Early

This ticket states the car was parked in front of 760 Crown Street when it was in fact parked in front of 760 Montgomery Street.

CROWN HEIGHTS [CHI] — Alternate side parking has been in effect since Monday, but to little avail as massive piles of frozen snow still take up many parking spaces, and the sanitation department did nothing with the cleaning rules being in effect. This did not stop the traffic cops from issuing tens of thousands of tickets.

CLOTHESMINDEDNESS – You Are What You Wear

by Rabbi Yoseph Kahanov Jax, FL.

Motel the tailor wanders into a small flophouse late one stormy winter night. “Quite full,” says the innkeeper. “Let’s see . . . I’ve got a single Cossack in one of the rooms up on the top floor. Your best bet is to climb into the bed beside him. Sorry, it’s the best I can do. ”

Grateful for a place to park his weary bones, the traveler quickly makes for the staircase, halting only to request that the innkeeper wake him well before dawn. “Got a train to catch,” he importantly blurts out.

Before he knows it, there’s a hand shaking him awake. “It’s well before dawn,” says a voice; “your train.”
