Stevenson’s service

S

ervice is good for the soul. Just ask Wood River High School by: JONathan senior BritKANE ton Stevenson. He has put so much into service that you can almost consider it his calling. In the last two years he has logged over 600 hours of community service and will be awarded the Congressional Award for Service to show for his hard labors. Stevenson was born in Santa Monica, California and moved here in 1994. He has attended Hemingway Elementary, the Wood River Middle School and now Wood River High School. “I’m glad I moved here,� he said. “There’s no crime and I love the outdoors. That includes snowboarding as well as summers at Redfish. The schools here are great and even though there are not as many opportunities here than there are in the city I really love the people here.� He also enjoys traveling and has been to Australia, Mexico and the east coast three times. “I’ve gotten a lot out of every place I’ve visited.� Especially the east coast, where he might end up at college. “I like to get away and experience different places. I’m really excited about moving to the east coast. I think I’ll really like it but I’m most excited about the quality of the education. He has applied to, among others, Yale, Williams College and Princeton. “I’ve really been focused on academics the past year and have taken four advanced placement courses – economics, philosophy, astrophysical sciences and sciences of the universe. “I’ll probably get a PHD in one of these. I really love physics now after seeing The Universe on the History Channel and reading Stephen Hawkins A Brief History of Time.� This spring he will be receiving the Congressional Award for his voluntary service. “There are four categories you have to participate in. First you must have 400 hours of community service then 200 hours of personal development, 200 hours of fitness and complete a four night expedition and accomplish all four over 24 months.� As to this test he said “I like setting goals and achieving them and to challenge myself to go beyond what I thought I could do.� While maintaining a 3.9 grade point average he has been able to volunteer at the Community Library, tutor students in math, be involved with the Special Olympics and has worked at the Lee Pesky Learning Center. He is also the only high school student on the Gov-

Why Chinese Medicine? By Rosemary Cody

T

o make sense of the world in Chinese medicine we observe things through the template of natural elements such as fire, earth and wind. It’s a way of understanding the health of an individual, as well as our environment. It’s a tool for us as we seek balance, a reminder to align ourselves with the laws of nature. Today, looking at our current health care situation, I see an imbalance: an excess of fire and wind, but certainly not much earth. The ground of the system is unstable and broken. In the midst of this chaos, what does a 5000-year-old medical system, particularly Chinese medicine, have to do with it? Why connect with ancient medical wisdom now? As we search for ways to maximize health, Chinese medicine--with its branches of acupuncture, herbal medicine and nutrition--stands out for several reasons: 1. It is a truly holistic approach to wellness and can work in complement with Western medicine. Your entire physical and emotional system is given value, no matter what your specific complaint. 2. It is individualized. For example, six clients may present with complaints of frequent headaches. Each client will have a different diagnosis, acupuncture treatment and herbal prescription. Always dynamic, your diagnosis and treatment may also change from visit to visit, as you return to balance and good health. 3. It is energy medicine and works at a deep level. Energy, once considered to be woowoo, is now recognized scientifically as the unifying force of atoms and molecules. Energy is the basic structure of the universe; everything is reducible to this fundamental force. 4. It is non-iatrogenic. In other words, when the diag-

nosis is correct, the treatment prescribed by a Chinese medical practitioner has no negative side effects. However, positive side effects such as an improved sense of well-being and better sleep are common. As per the Hippocratic Oath: “First do no harm.� 5. Above all it is preventive. This is an important consideration at at a time when the majority of our medical costs go to three conditions: obesity, diabetes and heart disease. Preventing these disorders is easier and less expensive than correcting them. The most ancient acupuncture text, The Yellow Emperor’s Inner Classic, circa 500 B.C., states that the superior physician diagnoses and treats illness before the patient starts to show symptoms. In fact, early Chinese doctors received payment only as long as the patient stayed well. It would be wonderful, yet not likely, if Congress would propose such an idea into the new health care reform! The good news, though, is that Chinese medicine can be your ally, your partner in health now. It can gently nudge your body back to its innate intelligence and guide it back to the perfection for which it was designed. It can complement and enhance your current health care. The better news is this: YOU are your very best primary health care provider. Every day you can take some small step toward health. Make your small positive change today. Do it consciously and with gratitude. Herein lies the power to reclaim your ground, to find a solid path toward health. twp

Churning it up for the University of Denver By LORI WILLIAMS

I

t’s always a success story when a home-grown athlete excels at the collegiate level and returns full circle. In 2005, when the valley last heard from local swim champion Michele Lowry, she was completing her senior year at The Bolles School in Jacksonville, Florida, a private collegeprep school known nationally for its premier swimming program. The former SV5B swimmer and Wood River High School student accumulated many honors before graduating from The Bolles, including First Coast all-Conference 2nd team, All-American Consideration, southern Sectionals qualifier, and a Florida top 15 ranking in five events, ages 17-18. No small feat where the swim programs are some of the most competitive in the country. Swimming competitively since age six, Lowry never looked back on the sacrifices. Four years ago, she signed with the University of Denver. Last spring she graduated with a Business Management degree and capped a four-year swim career with the Pioneers. As a freshman, she was awarded an 85% athletic scholarship, which grew each year as she improved in the program. She says it gave her something to work for. “After winning the 400 IM at Conference my junior year, my coach offered me a full-ride for my senior year.” That’s the NCAA Division I Sun Belt Conference she’s referring to. Her achievements at Denver include Athletic All-American Honorable Mention (FR), Academic all-American (JR, SR), Hardest Worker Award (JR, SR), Most Improved Athlete (JR, SR), Sun Belt Conference Most Outstanding Female Swimmer (SR) and Season MVP (SR). As a junior, Lowry won her first NCAA ‘B’ event in the 400 Individual medley at the SBC Championships with a time of 4:22.45. As a senior, she dropped ten seconds off that to qualify for the NCAA Championships, set a school record, and eventually placed 27th overall. She also qualified in the 1650 Free, placed 33rd, and set a new school record of 16:25.85. Her 1000 Free split in the 1650 also set a school record for Denver. Lowry credits former SV5B coach, Brian Gallagher, for much of her early success in and out of the pool. She began

ward-winning Idaho songwriter Steve Eaton, will headline Expedition Inspiration’s Fifth Annual Twilight Snowshoe Walk, Dinner and Auction on Sunday, March 21. Eaton, who has written hits for The Carpenters, the Fifth Dimension, Lee Greenwood and Art Garfunkel, will perform at the gala event, which will be held at the newly remodeled Valley Club north of Hailey. Proceeds from the event will benefit the annual Laura Evans Memorial Breast Cancer Symposium, which brings together scientists to brainstorm ways to enhance their research. The snowshoe hike will start at 5 p.m. and will include an effervescent Bubble Bar. The Elephant’s Perch will provide snowshoes free of charge. The auction and dinner will follow at 7 p.m. This year’s auction items include seven nights at a villa in Cabo Pulmo on the Sea of Cortez, the use of a fishing cabin on the Big Lost River near Mackay and a dinner party in the Sun Valley fire station with a ride on the engine, said auction organizer Julie Watson.

swimming with Gallagher at age nine. She says the eight years under his coaching gave her guidance and expertise in every aspect of the sport, both mentally and physically. “He is the greatest coach I ever had.” she says. Lowry still holds nine records in the Snake River Swim Association, encompassing age groups nine through sixteen. Just for fun now, Lowry has joined a club team in Denver, and is training to swim the 10K for the 2010 USA Swimming Open Water Nationals in Long Beach this June. She hopes to do some triathlons in the future, and is also applying to graduate school to obtain a Masters in higher education for a career in Academic Advising in collegiate athletics. The full circle? She currently coaches a club team of 9-13 year old swimmers with big potential. Just payin’ it forward twp to kids with a dream.

BasicsPlus

Pet Center HAS MOVED TO <JXY 2^WYQJ

Light on the Mountains Center for Spiritual Living is honored to announce that Cheryl Welch, owner of Chapter One Bookstore in Ketchum, is this year’s recipient of the Ann and Doug Christensen Humanitarian Award. Cheryl created the annual Sun Valley Wellness Festival, has sponsored the Hemingway School book fair for over 30 years and with Chapter One Bookstore, and has provided a platform and gathering point for many people and events in our community This year’s luncheon will take place on Sat. Apr. 17, 11:30 a.m. – 2:00 p.m., in The Lodge Dining Room in Sun Valley. Tickets are $30. Reservations can be made by calling Shelley Coben at (208) 788-1498 or through email office@ lightonthemountains.com.

Stop junk mail U nwanted mail can really be tiresome. It is also a huge waste of natural resources and your time. Each year, the average American home receives 1.5 trees in their mailbox in the form of unsolicited mail. That adds up to over 100 million trees cut down and more than 28 billion gallons of water consumed to produce one year’s worth of this country’s junk mail. Each year Americans pay more than $320 million to dispose of the huge amounts of junk mail we get. Most junk mail doesn’t get recycled. Junk mail ends up in our landfills. Get off the lists. Go to http://privacycouncil.org for starters. Don’t throw away your junk mail. It is all recyclable in the mixed paper section of your “blue box�, or at your nearest recycle station. Even envelopes with windows are recyclable.

When you receive an offer to be billed online, take it! And make your payments online, if you do not already do so, learn how. You’ll save time and money (no more stamps). It is faster and safer. Call the 800 numbers of the unwanted catalogs you receive and ask them to take you off their mailing list. If you order an item make sure to ask that they do not rent your name. If you run a business, there are additional steps you can take. When submitting purchase orders, registrations for conferences and subscriptions, be sure to include a statement about protecting privacy by not adding your address to mailing lists. If your business maintains databases or mail lists, be protective of your clients’ privacy. For more information call ERC 726-4333 www.ercsv.org twp

The prayer wheel installed at the Sawtooth Botanical Garden, serving as inspiration to many in the Valley, will be the site of a talk by Mary Ann Chubb. COURTESY PHOTO

Mary Ann Chubb will be explaining the significance and history behind prayer wheels in eastern culture at the Sawtooth Botanical Gardens, Thurs., Mar. 18, 5 p.m. During a private ceremony on Sept. 13, 2005, the Dalai Lama consecrated and blessed the Tibetan Prayer Wheel at the Garden. The 400 pound, hand carved Prayer Wheel was crafted by Buddhist monks in Dharamsala, India and is one of only two prayer wheels in North America blessed by His Holiness. The Sawtooth Botanical Garden is honored to be chosen as the site for the Prayer Wheel and to have the opportunity to create a very special place for people of all faiths to come, reflect and find peace. Free. Donations appreciated. Appetizers served. To register, call 726-9358.

ny’s mission, “we have options to make responsible decisions with alternative energy, organic products, and more. We are proud to be part of the green movement.� The mission is backed by Collared Greens’ eco-conscious investors (family and friends), and Randy’s mentors from three local businesses. In addition to polo shirts, Collared Greens produces silk ties hand-cut and sewn in New York, and embroidered organic cotton caps. In a bow to reality, the bare caps and raw silk are imported from China, the only premium quality source. Polo shirts are also mailed to Collared Greens’ customers (50 retailers in 21 states) in plastic bags, albeit recycled ones. These departures from the company’s preferred norms are stop-gaps - on Randy’s target list for change as soon as possible. “We’re not perfect but we do our best. We will address these issues,� he asserts. Randy’s three partners are friends from his college Lacrosse team. Their coach imprinted them with the same mindset: work as a team, keep

your head down, your mind focused, have fun, and you’ll win. This discipline is balanced by the team’s play-it-as-it-lays entrepreneurialism. Shortly after Collared Greens was founded in December 2008, Randy and a partner drove up the East Coast where specialty boutiques abound. “We pitched every store to let people know about Collared Greens,� he says. “When the first retailer wanted to buy some product, we looked at each other and asked, ‘Now what do we do?’� Randy laughs and says the trip was the turning point for the business, adding, “We’ve got a unique story and have had an overwhelming response.� twp

Vamps Break out Crazy Hats R emember balloon boy? He was back—or she, rather—making the rounds of the Sun Valley Nordic Center last week. Balloon boy was part by: Karen Bossick of a giant Crazy Hats on Parade as 130 members of Muffy Ritz’s VAMPS women’s Nordic program spilled out onto the tracks around the Nordic Center, giving other skiers a colorful treat to feast their eyes upon. And a few chuckles, as well. The spectacle, which vaguely resembled an Easter parade, was this year’s version of Dress Like a Vamp Day. Only this time participants eschewed the billowy dresses of Marie Antoinette and the tight bodices of Wild West saloon girls to dress from the neck up only. Sandra Willingham showed up as Balloon Boy, hundreds of plastic Atkinsons’ bags stuffed into the foil atop her head. And, yes, she actually did threaten to take off once as a gust of wind caught her while she was skiing Leif’s Loop. Nancie Krankkala took advantage of the end-of-the-season, spring welcoming fling to do a little spring cleaning. She cleaned out her junk drawer, topping a hat with assorted dog biscuits, refrigerator magnets, matches and more. Lynn Chaldu didn’t need the iced tea or lemonade that had been provided by Perry’s. She brought her own drink—beer that funneled from her pinwheel spinning beer guzzling hat. Lucy Bourret couldn’t have been blamed if she had a headache after skiing around for a half-hour. She had the equivalent of a bowling ball on her head, thanks to her ski helmet which she had decorated in a myriad of pins she’s found in an antique store in San Francisco. The helmet resembled a work of art, what with its goldleaf pins topped with dragonfly, and flower brocades. There was even a dinosaur perched above her helmet, along with a Sun Valley sun. But it must’ve weighed at least 10 pounds. VAMPS founder Muffy Ritz wore a fearsome looking mask

scene in the valley

The VAMPS settled in for a look-see and a picnic on the patio of the Sun Valley Club after their midday ski. PHOTOS: KAREN BOSSICK/TWP

Fearsome Muffy Ritz, who founded the VAMPS a decade ago, wore a mask her mother had picked up while traveling in the Black Sea. that her mother had found during a trip to the Black Sea. It’s part of an amazing collection of masks that her mother has, Ritz said. And Jan Wygle gave new meaning to seeing double as she wore a veil sporting an extra pair of eyes and mouth beneath her crown of flowers. “It’s the promise of spring,” she said. Artist E.J. Harpham, meanwhile, sported a cap she’d made featuring a ladybug

There were no cone heads, but these Vamps sported plenty of heads of a different ilk with Mary Stoecklein’s touch-of-spring bathing cap, Carol Holman’s Mardi Gras hat, Carol Steven’s princess hat, Ann Scales’ roadkill hat and JoAnn Levy’s drum major’s hat. topped by flowers. “I’m going to wear it for inspiration as I start my greenhouse,” she said. Courtney Gilbert, who used to race on a Nordic team during college, said she enjoyed her first season with the VAMPS immensely. “I learned a lot of new techniques I never even knew existed,” she said. twp

Changing world of written word Pondering By BALI SZABO

what to do this week?

“The man who does not read good books has no advantage over the man who can’t read them.�

O

ne of the basic building blocks of community is a library, an endangered species in many cities and towns across America - along with bookstores. We’re very fortunate to have two of each. The City of Austin, TX is about to lose its last bookstore, a college town, no less. The State of Maryland has one public library left. I sat down with head librarian Nancy Gurney and her heir apparent, LeAnn Gelskey of the Hailey Library to see how we’re doing. The brick - and- mortar institutions that support reading are in the crosshairs of the digital revolution. We live in a world of increasing complexity, and we have to process more information than ever. Librarians are becoming cyberians, the traffic cops of the information superhighway. Nancy said that Hailey and the State of Idaho have been very supportive, and while there has been some belt tightening, her budgets have grown to accommodate the 10% year over year growth of users (6% growth nationwide). People aren’t just coming in to check out books, or to read the papers and magazines. They’re using the computers, and getting movies, CDs and DVDs. The recession has brought in more people, especially families. Because the old card catalogue is gone, the front desk is staffed with multi

- taskers who can direct traffic and help with problems. The kids, called ‘digital natives’ can be seen using the computer, playing a game, texting and using an iPod, all at the same time. Just don’t give them a driver’s license. Both Nancy and LeAnn said they were challenged on a daily basis, as ‘ times they are - a - changin.’ They detailed the many services the Library offers. There’s the 12 Idaho city inter - library service. They don’t have it, someone else may. There are research aids like Lili, which features vetted, reliable data. There’s Global Road Warrior for geography and social studies. Learning Library if you want to study for a professional entry exam, or need help with a resume. There’s a car repair site to to save on books. The library is

about to bring in electronic books to download to MP-3s and PCs. State libraries are partnering with the Dept. of Labor (ECIS) to assist in job searches. Some libraries are doing job fairs and online skills courses. Because the library has adjusted to technological social changes, and will continue to do so, it remains relevant. Nancy and LeAnn stressed that a library’s basic job is not only to convey information, but to promote literacy, an increasingly important task as grammatical skills are fading from the use of abreviative texting, which will lead to illiteracy. The good news is that libraries are needed more than ever, and continue to play an important part in a community’s cohesion. twp

briefs Folk Festival scheduled

The 33nd Annual Northern Rockies Folk Festival will be held Friday and Saturday Aug. 6-7 at Hop Porter Park in Hailey. There will be several bands whose members either grew up in the Wood River Valley or have moved here in recent years. Quailfish includes 2009 graduates of Wood River High School, now students at Humboldt State University in California. Next up will be Michael White, a local musician and promoter of the Big Wood Folk Music Festival in Bellevue. Olin & the Moon from Los Angeles will return for a second year. And the headliner Friday night will be Lisa Haley and the Zydecats, a Los Angeles-based zydeco band. On Saturday, the line-up includes home-grown musicians Scott Fairfax and Joe Paisley. California band Gypsy River Haunts will play followed by FourStroke Bus and No Cheap Horses. Johnnie Shoes and Joshua Tree from Boise will precede Leslie and the Badgers from L.A. who in turn will warm up for the headliner Americana superstar Kelly Willis of Austin. On Saturday local musicians such as Piers Lamb and Tom Archie will play between main acts. For more information visit www. nrff.net.

Hanging Around, for art’s sake

B

eth Baker is beginning to get used to the notion of people by: Karen Bossick paying big dollars to hang her image on their wall. Still, “it’s weird knowing I’m going to be hanging in someone’s home.” That has been her destiny, however, since she became one of four models that part-time Sun Valley resident Judith Kindler used for her new exhibition, “Don’t Hate Me Because I’m Beautiful.” Baker spent three full days at Kindler’s studio in Seattle, posing in stark empty spaces, putting on rabbit ears and a platinum blonde wig and sitting under a pile of measuring tape as Kindler attempted to instigate a conversation about how we determine certain subjects are admirable, beautiful and desirable. “It was like a theatrical performance,” said Baker, the daughter of British pop star Chad Stuart of Chad and Jeremy fame. Baker said she has long admired Kindler’s work—ever since she started working at Gail Severn Gallery four years ago. “I admire Judith’s creativity, the way she’s always pushing the envelope. A lot of artists are playing it safe right now because of the economy. But that never entered Judith’s mind. She’s still thinking out of the box. To be inside her mind would be incredible.” Kindler, whose work has been shown at Gail Severn Gallery frequently over the years, said this exhibition is different from her photo-based encaustic work where she creates layers of narrative through the addition of encaustic, oils and inscribing. This is a purely photographic work, in which she creates the narrative through a combina-

A good partner is someone who can help you prioritize and pace yourself. If you’re getting out of sync, feeling rushed, sluggish or scattered, look carefully at the company you’re keeping this week. Could they have anything to do with it? Attention to interpersonal dynamics will clear up a few roadblocks. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). More is not always better. In fact, usually less is better. You have no problem leaving the extraneous stuff that drags you down. When you’re done with something, you simply drop it. You’ll be a master at making attitude adjustments in an instant. A friend will be inspired by your ability to cut to the quick. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you ask, “Why did I just do that?” the answer won’t be readily available. Is it a genetic predisposition or something in your environment that’s triggering your behavior? Brain development is wildly complex. Instead of asking why, ask, “How can I do it better next time?” You’ll have more success. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You think you need to increase the self-control, crack down on discipline and get your act together. But the opposite approach may have an even better effect. Doing nothing has merit, too.

perity, luck—the rabbit is even a trickster. All these things play out in this show in odd ways as the images focus on our ideals, which have been ‘reconsidered’ in new contexts.” Ironically, most viewers of Kindler’s works don’t recognize Beth in these new contexts—even when she’s sitting directly across from the photograph, Baker noted. “People look at these pictures and they don’t realize it’s me—especially when I’m wearing a blond wig.” twp

lazy and indulgent and goofing off. Ditch the self-improvement campaign and see how that works for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s like someone clicked the “random” button on life. Events won’t follow a logical path. Non sequiturs abound. Conversations fragment, loop the loop and then shoot off through the stratosphere. What will you do with all this weird input? As resourceful and clever as you are, by Thursday you’ll be turning it into art. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You tend to fall in love with people who can do something you can’t. You grow as you do this, since Pisces people are often able to take on their partners’ qualities through osmosis. You’ll be in a good mix of people this week, so continue to seek partners who amaze and inspire you. THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS: You will stand up and be counted this year. The more you do this, the easier it gets. The things you used to quietly put up with will be suddenly unacceptable to you. You’ll be finding a new way to express yourself in April. A favorable critique or review will lead to promotion and an increase in your professional power. June brings you closer to loved ones as you share lighthearted experiences. Plan a big event for August. A special relationship brings out your creativity in September.

tion of props at play with the subjects. Kindler said her work features many references to cultural icons and nuances, art and favorite artists—all of which she leaves for her viewers to discover. One of the more obvious references in her often-humorous and satirical pieces is that of rabbit references. “The rabbit is a very symbolic animal in most cultures,” said Kindler. “It represents sexual desire, progeny, fertility, renewal, rebirth, wealth, pros-

Ask the Guys Dear Classified Guys, Every two to three years, I get an itch. Nah, it's not a rash, just the itch to buy a different car. When you spend as much time commuting in it as I do (4 hours a day), you get tired of the same old thing. Sometimes I buy new cars, but the last few were used and I've had great success. However, these days I don't know what to do with the whole auto industry in turmoil. Who knows what manufacturer will be around in a few years. I was considering an American car, but some models are being discontinued and other brands are up for sale. Even the foreign cars seem plagued with recalls. The next new car I buy could be the last of it's kind! And if I buy used, how do I know if the previous owner has dealt with any recall problems? I want to give in to this nagging itch, but I'm now wondering if I should wait until the auto industry settles all their problems. What's the best thing to do?

Cash: Since that itch keeps

bothering you, it may be time to do something about it. Let's face it, if you're waiting for the auto industry to iron out all the dilem-

mas, you could be waiting a while. By then your new car would be an antique! Carry: The auto industry has had many issues through the decades. Some people may remember the "Edsel" model that flopped in sales or the "Pinto" whose fuel tank design could cause explosions in rear-end collisions. Even the fuel crisis of the 1970's was enough to change the types of cars being produced. Fortunately, these things eventually get worked out. Cash: Regardless of the auto industry's current situation, you should always try to focus on buying a car based on your needs. And as for recalls, you can check with a dealer or the manufacturer

before purchasing anything if you're concerned. Even a quick search on the internet will answer most questions you may have about recalls on specific models and how to handle them. Carry: If you're buying a usedcar, the future of any auto company should have little affect on your decision. The car parts and repair industry will be around a long time regardless of any manufacturer's future. Even automobiles on the road today that have been discontinued years ago are some of the best used-cars still available. Cash: Besides, going forth and buying another car will finally allow you to scratch that annoying itch!

The automobile industry has seen it's fair share of recalls, but they are not the only ones. In 2006, Dell was forced to recall 4.1 million notebook computers due to the potential for exploding batteries. Apple recalled 1.8 million notebooks for a similar issue. Johnson & Johnson spent over $100 million on withdrawing Tylenol capsules from the market in 1982 after several deaths related to tampering. And most recently, more than 125 different peanut butter products, ranging from dog biscuits to candy bars, have been recalled for the potential of salmonella poisoning.

All About Style

Success is often celebrated, but failure is usually remembered. The "Edsel", manufactured from 1958 to 1960, is arguably the worst car blunder ever. During it's brief two years of production, only 118,287 Edsel's were built and sold, about half of the breakeven number required. The company lost nearly $350 million dollars, equivalent to about 1.5 billion dollars today. While many critics site poor workmanship, weak styling or lack of support by chief executives as the cause for failure, the car's reliability is actually considered similar to many of the cars produced at the time.

I've learned the hard way that no one likes a police officer when he's holding a ticket book. Last week I found a car illegally parked in a loading zone and stopped to write a citation. Sure enough, while finishing the paperwork, a man approached and started telling me that I had some nerve for writing a ticket. "For crying out loud," he said, "the flashers are on and it's only been here a few minutes." He continued to talk back and started getting quite rude. Finally I had to warn him, "If you keep it up, I can stand here and write tickets for this car all day long." "Go ahead," the gentleman said, not the least bit worried, "This isn't even my car!"
