I would like to see a show of hands here...who likes the parking meter guy?? I for one, DON'T!  Now, I suppose I am blaming the wrong guy, giving the wrong guy a bad name and sure, he is just doing his job....blah, blah, BLAH!

You know it is bad when they make a TV reality show out of this issue, so I am not the only one, really.  Today folks...you really should start saving those pennies, nickels and dimes...oh wait! DOLLARS!  Yes Sir, I did say dollars.

The City Department of Transportation has a whole new mission for you, raising funds. 
After several months of bureaucratic hosh-posh, city techs will  be adjusting all of our downtown San Pedro parking meters to abide by the citywide rate increase enacted last summer.  Rates will go up to $1.00 an hour or $4.00 for 10 hours or $100.00 for 5 seconds...ok so I am being a serious brat on that last fee, but really, what is the difference?    

In the parking areas that display "all day/long term/etc...etc", the new hours are 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. daily, including Sunday, Sunday did they say?  Hmmm? That's funny because the meters are not in effect...or are they now?  Yep, they are!  Someone needs to tell old has been Arnie that showbiz WAS his day job and he needs to KEEP it!  All I keep thinking about is that "Meter Fairy", remember him?  I do, and I want to find him again! I like fairies, maybe I should become the next meter fairie!
