Ohh! I forgot to mention my parking ticket. I have to mention my parking ticket, because it's funny. =) So, we all know that if you have a car on the Cornell campus, you're bound to get a parking ticket (multiple parking tickets) eventually, because the desire to park in places you shouldn't so that you don't have to walk is overwhelming. So....yesterday, I parked near Bailey for the PSP meeting. I've parked there before and not gotten a ticket, so I wasn't too worried. Well, this time I did get a ticket. Kinda sucks, but what can you do? I saw the sign. I resigned myself to putting another $20 towards car violations. But later, I looked at the ticket. I knew they didn't have my name or anything (because my car isn't registered with the university) but figured they would have my license plate number and everything. And yes, they did get the license plate number. But, for my state, they put KS. Kansas. Kansas? Now, I have done a lot of complaining about my license plates. Illinois (yes, that's where I'm from, believe it or not) just redesigned its plates and I hate them. They say "Illinois" in curvy letters at the top and say "Land of Lincoln" at the bottom. And, right in the middle, they have a giant head of Lincoln. Now, yes, they are new and they are ugly. But Kansas? Kansas doesn't even border Illinois. KS aren't near enough IL to make that plausible, either. Cornell police are clearly underpaid to make a mistake like this. It's good news for me, though. Since they can't track me down by my license plate or anything at all, the ticket isn't getting paid. Sucks for the money-hungry administration at Cornell, now doesn't it?
