I’ve never noticed how many non-handicapped people park in spots reserved for those who really need them – until I was one of those that really needed them.
Let me take you back to Monday night. I noticed all of the handicapped spots in a parking lot were taken, so I was forced to park a couple of hundred yards away. The asphalt had patches of ice, but I managed to slide to the door on one leg.
When I walked out I noticed two ladies getting into a car parked in one of the handicapped spots. I’m no doctor, but they seemed like they could have done cartwheels across the lot.
“Did you really need to park there?” I asked the driver.
“Oh, I gots a sticker,” she replied.
“I’m not doubting that you have a sticker. I can see it hanging from your rear-view mirror. But you seem to be walking fine. Do you have a medical condition that requires you to park there?”
“Why you be gettin’ all up in my bidness?” she axed.
“Forget it. By the way, thanks for parking there. I had to walk two football fields on crutches.”
“Thank you for having crutches.”
Now, I admit I thought about using one of the crutches to start knocking out her headlights. But then it donned on me – nothing I could have said or done was going to change her ignorance. She’s probably a bad tipper, too.
Okay, let’s get to this year’s Christmas list for the SOB cast.
