Joe,

 JM>   The first one had a medical condition he didn't tell anyone until it
 JM> kicked in the first week or so.

  I guess he thought it'd disqualify him for the job.

 JM>   The second one was dumb as a box of rocks.  Couldn't comprehend
 JM> anything and parking ain't rocket science.  I mean if I can do it....

  I had a pet rock garden...last week, several of them died. 

 JM>   We've had some real winners sent to parking and many were members of
 JM> the Doofus family, which seems to grow by the day.
 JM>   This guy made a Doofus seem smart and I nicknamed him Knucklehead.

  Yeah, I remember you talking about him. It sounded like he made The
Three Stooges look good. 

 JM>   I.E., regular violator for example.  Parking can't link the car to
 JM> anyone.  One day the violator leaves something in plain sight with
 JM> their name, student number, etc.  Got ya.

  Busted.  I'll bet some complain the picture was "set up" and
tampered with using Photoshop.

 JM>   The woman in the office working on the machine walked over, mentioned
 JM> the tree trimming and casually asked for her name and phone number in
 JM> case she might need to move.  Got her.  And she paid.

  No pressure...she needed to make like a tree and leaf. 

 JM>   We must have had the same parents!
 JM>   Or graduates of parenting school.

  Nowadays, the parents don't want to discipline their kids, as "it'll
ruin their self esteem". Well, I got my share of spankings (my younger
brother probably got more ), and we consider ourselves better for it.

 JM>   I sometimes tell someone when I ask that and can't recall "Oh, you
 JM> weren't listening either?"

  What were we talking about?? 

 JM>    Or the popular retirement community in Florida, "Sunny Beaches".

  Or Blake Shelton's song, "Some Beach".
