City of Lawrence threatens to arrest me for a parking ticket


Funny thing is, I never got the original complaint, but I can't prove it, so I'm going to send the greedy fuckers their $10.

Mabus leaves town and all hell breaks loose! :cry:

1. I'm sorry but it appears my powers are limited
You were under my protection as long as I was in town. Now that I'm gone, you're on your own. I'm really sorry. I'll try to increase my powers and extend them westward.

2. Yep, I know that
I never got a threat of a prison sentence while you were in town. But where will I ever find anyone with an evil triumvirate of pups like Kramer, Spike and Scala? :cry:

3. If it makes you feel any better
We got the same letter last week. We also got one from the library. It appears the Admiral checked out a book for one of his kids and she doesn't know where it is now. We will probably end up paying for it since she thinks we owe it to her to pay all her bills. :eyes:

4. Ugh, those library fines for books are outrageous!
They tried to get me to pay for once I *had* returned. Luckily I was able to find it among the stacks and call off the dogs!

5. That's happened to me before too
I didn't use the public library for a long time after that happened. I was so pissed. I used the KU libraries instead.

I've sometimes wondered if there are people who put overdue books back on the shelf and then say, "What are you talking about? Here it is," just to get out of paying the fines.
