Random Pictures From the Drive

Now that I have my new kick ass Nikon D40, I've relegated my old faithful Canon S40 point and shoot to the car.  If I see something cool, I have it handy.  Sadly, there was one really gorgeous sunrise I saw a few weeks ago... but I didn't have the camera in the car at the time.  I've been kicking myself since.  But here are some pictures I've managed to snap to and from Sheboygan.  Sadly the picture didn't do this sky justice.  But the effects of the sun light breaking through the clouds was quite breath taking...

Morning Sky

Then there is this.  I'm greeted by this every morning as I pull into the parking lot at work.

Health Hazard

That's right.  Don't put the tickets in your mouth... but you shouldn't worry about holding them in your hands for extended periods.  Exactly what could be in those parking tickets that is so dangerous... and why are they still being used?

I wonder how many people were putting parking ramp tickets in their mouths that it became such a problem that they needed to put that sign up? And how long did they have them in their mouths? Odd...

I used to park in that same lot when I worked downtown (now work on Sheboygan's fashionable south side). I think the health hazard is your disgusting mouth germs getting on the ticket, and then the parking lot attendant having to handle it. Could you imagine touching dozens/hundreds of those tickets every day, knowing that some people put them in their mouths? Blech...

Good point. And what's up with those parking attendants anyway? There are a couple crotchety old guys who won't take anything bigger than a $5 bill to get out. If you give them a $10 or $20 they yell at you... "What am I? A bank?" Hello... make change dude. It's your job.
