Parallel
parking is its own problem
Please
pull your car all the way into the space
As
if parking weren’t bad enough.
We should be dedicated to helping one another overcome
the perils of parking, rather than placing obstacles in
each other’s paths. It’s happened to all of
us. You clear the nearest stop sign just in time to catch
a glimpse of the perfect spot — shining in the distance
along the street of the building of your first class.
You pull up to the spot, prepared to impress the average
onlookers with your parallel parking prowess, when reality
sets in. You will never have that spot. Why? The vehicle
in front of or behind your perfect spot has chosen to
haphazardly rush through their parking job, crushing your
hopes of cruising into that flawless space. |

Mars
exploration will create budget deficit
Long
before I wanted to go into journalism, I wanted
to be an astronaut.
Of course, I was 9 years old, wore thick, blue-rimmed
glasses — Why didn’t you pick a better
pair, mother? — and watched Star Trek religiously. |
