Just dropped off my wife at the airport about an hour ago. Three cars parked along the entrance to the airport. Get a clue, people! They should be tagged and towed.

On the up side, the wife is outta town 'til Sunday. Party at my house, Hopes, bring the walnuts!!!

Nah, I'll be in bed by 10, with any luck. Sucks to get old n'at.

I think the people that pull off must just assume it's going to be $5 or something to pull into the parking lot.

Or, it's just the same people who will drive way out of the way to save 5 cents per gallon on gas.

It's good to have the choice of the free lot though. They need to mark it well with signage early enough so that people stop pulling off on the side of the road.

Yes, because terrorists might us parked cars as weapons? Is that it? Hey, but feel free to continue using 911 as a justification for just about anything because it is not growing tiresome or anything.

Sheesh!

OK, there is clearly NO PARKING allowed along the berm of the entrance road to the airport. It has been that way since it was built. It's with the increase in cellphones and not being allowed to take the subway over to the incoming flights that more and more people would rather sit and wait until they are notified, then simply pick them up with out the hassle of parking. I've been doing it for years.

What can I say, I believe in following the rules, even if it's in a HOA community.

Picked up my wife last night and while driving on the access, sure enough there was a car parked on the berm directly in from of a no-parking sign.
