Close to Home by John McPherson for May 30, 2020

He’s going to have a nasty surprise when he gets back. His bush will be gone and his car will be booted or towed.

This one reminds me of the opening scenes of the old “Mike Hammer” series with Stacy Keach.

He’s just trying to spruce up the street a little!

I love the expressions on McPherson’s characters. Check out the woman’s in this one.

Use one that’s says ‘out or order’.

I don’t think Lovey Rita is that gullible.

Greening-up that drab urban street

Save 25 cents to pay a $10 fine. Brilliant.

Too many witnesses there buddy

“Ah, it’s the old ‘hide-a-meter-with-a-bush’ trick! That’s the second time I’ve fallen for it this month!”

Haven’t seen bleep in a while, must be Hoff planet.

And the meter maids never catch on or try to cut the bush down?

Better just cut the head off the meter like in “ Cool Hand Luke”.

Too complicated. I just use Jedi mind tricks on the meter maids.

Just print out a graphic sticker showing the meter is full. And then pray that it doesn’t rain.

Looks like a pretty narrow street for two way traffic. Don’t know if I’d be parking there anyway.
