Just another morning in beautiful So Cal. The sun is shining, the birds are chirping, the cats are drooling at the chirping birds and yet another car is being towed. You would think that people who live here would be smart enough to warn guests that they're tow-happy on this street. And you'd think the guests would be smart enough to read ALL the signs posted about regarding their asses being towed at 7am. The other morning a BMW was being hooked up, complete with blaring car alarm. That didn't even clue the person in that they were about to spend a hell of a lot more money. Why even get a car alarm if you're not going to pay attention to it? I have yet to be there when the person comes out to see that their car is gone. I would imagine lots of profanity and 'It's been stolen!' screams until they either 1. Looked up and saw one of the signs or 2. Called the Police station only for them to be told that is a towing zone and to call the city. Luckily I have yet to have this happen. *knocks on wood* That's why I can sit in my apartment, sipping my coffee with a smug look on my face as I type this rant. :P
