So, let’s see, it has been a week since my last ramblings. The Kings have won a game and tied a game since the last time we talked. Roenick has started to turn around his season. The Kings are in first place.
There have been a few weird incidents in my life.
I recently submitted a rebate form. After about 10 weeks, I received a notice saying that I hadn’t submitted a copy of the UPC not an original. So my claim had been denied. On the notice, was a phone number to call. I called the number and explained I had two rebates and probably mixed up the envelopes. The nice operator told me that it was ok. Did I have a copy of it? I said yes and she told me to mail the copy with the card to the address on the card. Huh?
I’ve been having fun with my local California Highway Patrol officer. It seems that someone in my neighborhood calls and complains about cars that are parked on Deerhill, a street near my townhome. So, the CHiP left two notices on my car in October asking that my car be moved. These two notices were legit since I hadn’t moved my car due to mechnical problems for over the prescribed 72 hours. Last week, on Monday, a notice was placed on my car. I moved my car to my garage on Monday night. Tuesday morning, I moved the car back to the street. I was warned again. The warning told me to move my car 1 mile. So I drove my car back to my garage and on Saturday night, I parked on the street again. On Tuesday, my car was towed because I had only moved the car less than a mile. F***. $175 later, I parked my car back on the stree Tuesday night. Yesterday, Wednesday, I had another warning. WTF? I have a call into Officer Hoskings to ask why he ticketed me when he had my car towed the previous day. He KNEW that my car had a mile on it. My guess is some smuck in my neighbor is calling in to complain. Talk about a waste of government resources. I’m trying to figure out if I can get the CHP to pursue this guy for false police reports.
