I overheard this conversation at Plant recently:

Old Man parks in No Parking zone.

Aide: Boss, can we park here?

Old Man:  They’re not going to make me leave.  I’m driving a Porsche.

The sad truth is, he’s right.  People really give weight to stuff like that.  They’re probably worried he’s some politician or something, or maybe one of the mall’s owners.

On a slightly related topic, I should check out carinsurancelist.com for insurance for my Vios.  If that thing gets any more damage, it’s going to be pretty expensive without the insurance.
