Close to Home by John McPherson for September 18, 2012

I use the “Lock” button on my car – makes the horn go and I find it using echo location.

i don’t see how tying her butt to a sign post works, but hey, that’s just me.

One of the problems I can see with that system is, what if everyone started doing it? Then it would become useless.

It beats leaving a trail of bread crumbs.

Something fun to do on Black Friday: Walk around slowly in a crowded parking lot with your keys in your hand.

Oak Ridge Boy: Yeah, the starlings and grackles would erase that in no time.

I don’t get this one at all. She’s tied to the No Parking sign and something is tugging at a string above the level of the other cars. Is there a joke here somewhere?

Good thing there are a dozen fun and actually workable systems to whatever Kelly has in mind (that’s being kept secret from us readers).

Now you can leave your iPod in the car and use your iPhone to find it. Hey, that really isn’t a bad idea. I could have done that the other day when I couldn’t remember where I parked my car (ala’ Jerry Seinfeld and Kramer).
