Someone did something like that up in Wisconsin one year after a big snowstorm — parked in a space someone else had just finished clearing out. The guy whose space got taken got mad, of course, and then he got even. He got his snowblower and damb near buried the offending car.

Officially, the guy with the snowblower got a warning from the cops — it's not legal to put excessive amounts of snow into the street when clearing your sidewalks/driveways. Off the record, I'm sure the cops were 110% on his side!!!

In another case, the person whose space got poached poured water over the poacher's car until it was covered about a half-inch thick with ice.

here in Akron several years ago, a guy was shot and killled for taking a parking spot that someone had cleared of snow. The shooter had cleared his spot, went to get his car (obviously with a gun in it) and when he got back to the spot, confronted the usurper and shot his a** (well, actually, his chest). Don't mess with us Ohioans. lol :wench:

We've never had hurricanes (except in a glass) up here, though.

I'd much rather deal with the chance of a Hurricane in Florida than the certainty of 6 months of snow, ice and cold in Vermont......to each his own, but I am sooooooo over the cold

That is CLASSIC. I wish I could do that to the snowplows that come by right after I am done...OR...the snow plows that sit idling behind my car in the road when they can clearly see that I am trying to clear my driveway to park in it.

If you want an experience, go to a Jimmy Buffett concert.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

Life is short, live long!!

I'd rather be a wiseass than a dumbass.
