I changed things around a bit, and added a few things. It's as new to me as it is to you, but I think it'll work. As usual I'll try to have a variety of topics, but come summer there will be more postings about car events. You can email me at cruisaholic@hotmail.com Keep the shiny side up!

Off subject

I was at the local jobber today and all the talk seemed to center around our illustrious Skybridge.
With all the denials around the local politicals could it be a flaw in design or glass manufacture instead of vandals? Of the six or seven people waiting for parts it seemed about an even split. Is it just me or does it seems like the old council just pushed things through without any thought to upkeep and security? There's enough political blogs around town without adding this one to the roster but it sure seems to be on a lot of peoples minds.

Here is yet another off subject post that was on another policital blog. Is this stupid or what? I think the city of Davenport is trying to drive everyone away from down town. Here's the quote.

Parking Issues
Kyle Carter - D1 Downtown Partnership
In an effort to ensure the fluid exchange of traffic downtown, tickets will now be distributed to anyone “plugging” meters beyond their designated time allotment. Cars that have been parked in the same space for consecutive sessions can expect to be ticketed in the near future.

What's your opinion?

How can parked cars affect the fluid exchange of traffic? Is it legal to ticket cars with time on the meter? Seems like the city is setting itself up for another lawsuit.
