A Friend of Unfair Park sends us a link to an online petition virtually circulating amongst local motorcycle and scooter enthusiasts demanding City Hall create "off street motorcycle parking in all public parking lots, whether privately or municipally owned." The petition offers myriad reasons for such a demand, including "skyrocketing" popularity due to rising gas prices and traffic congestion and the fact that, man, it's just cooler to ride a scoot, ya friggin' square. Thus far, 132 folks have signed the petition, which, I believe, was just posted yesterday. In unrelated news, I was thinking of getting a new car -- Prius, maybe. But, suddenly, I have a deep craving for one of these. --Robert Wilonsky
