Day 143 – Let me start today with a complaint once again about the parking, it was just after midnight when all these cars were parked on the street. Most if not all belong to the scab workers inside the nursing home.

Day 142 – So I get a call today from our secretary and she tells me that on July 4th her brother came to visit, she lives on Giles Place. Now he parked in her private driveway and received a $115 ticket for blocking the sidewalk, so residents of this community get slammed (myself included) [...]
