Hey, a car isn't properly broken in unless it got a ding on all four
doors within the first month!

Neither of our 2007 model cars has a ding anywhere. As far as parking,
when we feel the need to use the handicapped spaces we do, and they are
large enough to prevent dings. Otherwise, we park well away from other
cars. So far neither car has been hit by a wayward cart. :-)

OK. Can't believe what I'm seeing here. Are you saying that you are
actually entitled to park in a handicapped parking space?

If so, why have you been whining about people parking in pregnant
mom/family parking spaces when it can't possibly make any difference to
you personally?

If not, then WTF do you think you have that makes *you* so special that
you can park in a handicapped space anytime it's convenient?

Good grief.

In a word, yes.

I don't believe they should be different.

Already answered.

Good grief, indeed. Aren't you getting tired of this? God knows I am.

I can't wait for American football. Men have better things to argue about! We
tend to time-out during off season.
