Curbhunter Fails

Curbhunter: it’s not for the weak or stupid or poor. Unlike so many other things in my life lately, two of three IS bad. This guy seems to have avoided all three:

not poor, because: year old Range Rover
not weak, because balls enough to park a Range Rover outside the shithole complex that makes Mesa Ridge Apartments look like luxury condos.
Maybe that is stupid. So is overnight parking in general. But look in the front seat! A GIANT PUKE BUCKET! That is ~~malice aforethough~~t Eagle Scout like preparation. You can’t always find a Hill Auditorium trash can when you need one.

Fancy Parking: Your world frightens and confuses me edition

It started out as an ordinary trip to a car show. I followed the GMC to a choice pull through spot. I could have gone to either side, but i went right in case there was no passenger (couldn’t see). Even then, I was cautious in pulling in, in case there was a passenger, especially one who liked to kick the door open.

Parking brake, kill the ignition. Oh look, there WAS a passenger. Good thing I left plenty of room.

Pitcher Street Blues

This is Pitcher Street in Kalamazoo. Once a bustling industrial section, it is slowly giving way to taggers and decay. The closing of Checker left a rotting carcass behind. The east side of the street is a wasteland; the west slowly withers, given over to the relentless taggers, artists and imbecilic juggalos. It’s just a question of who is stronger. the businesses hanging on, or entropy, atrophy and anarchy.
