conflict of interest

RJ's mom was really nice and bought us some food, which I think was totally awesome. However, what I find amusing is that two of these foods just don't seem like they should be next to each other...

it's not long now...

There is something exciting
about leaving everything behind
There is something deep and pulling
leaving everything behind
Something about having everything
you think you'll ever need
sitting in the seat next to you

And i watch another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
fly beside us
and I watch another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
fly beneath us
away away

There is
Yelling of an engine a constant rattling door
There is serious deep and mumbled
a conversation I'm not in
Flickering lights shadows of trees
makes me blink my eyes
makes the land appear like a really old movie
and I watch...

And I watch another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
fly beside us
and I watch another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
fly beneath us
away away
I got a heart full of rubber bands that keeps getting caught on things

And I count another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
I drift off at eighty...something
And I count another white dash
another white dash
another white dash
Out of time with the music

something exciting about leaving everything behind
There is something deep and pulling
leaving everything behind
Something about having everything
you think you'll ever need
sitting in the seat next to you

3 more days, Buffalo...3 more days

FYI: Parking Violations

I forgot to move my car across the street yesterday so I got two tickets. I thought they had to be 24 hours apart so I emailed the Parking Violations Bureau with:

I recently received two parking tickets because I forgot to move my car to
the other side of the street on the given day. I am not disputing that I
deserve one ticket. However, I was under the impression that a person could
not receive more than one parking ticket within a 24 hour period of time.
Is this correct or have I been misinformed? If it is correct, what should I
do with my second ticket?

The truth is:

[c]The tickets are valid as long as they are 61 minutes apart. The officers can tag you at the same location for the same violation as long as they are an hour apart. If they see multiple violations, they will also tag you for each violation they see. If you want to request a hearing on the tickets, mail them in immediately to plead not guilty. We will then send you an appointment slip for the judge. If they are within an hour of each other, you can send both tickets in, but send payment for the earlier ticket. Send them both in the same envelope.[/c]
