Meters, meters ,meters....

Did you know that now you can use your credit card for parking meters??ISnt that the craziest idea ever! I admit that I dont have change all the time and that it helps..but wow! They really want our money! I also found a bedazzled meter on melrose. At least it makes the street look a little nicer! I have also heard that soon they will be putting meters up that know when you are parking there and when your not (japan already has these)Which means that if you put an hour worth of money in and you leave the spot in 30 min...The meter will go back to zero.WHICH MEANS...You wont be able to use the person( who was right in front of you)their meter money!!Im telling ya! Keep a tight grip on your quarters! Your gonna need them!
