Where are the Parked People Lately?
I’ve been at a loss for words lately and not sure why. Is it that there are no more parked people in the world? I doubt it.
I’ve been puzzled by this new phenomenon for a few the last few weeks. Maybe they’re taking a break for awhile, but for what reason? Oh yea, maybe it’s the holidays. Are people really getting into the Christmas spirit this year? Shopping hasn’t even been that bad lately. Of course, there’s still minor infusions of bad drivers and crankiness, but it seems to have waned a bit.
Maybe I’m just being idealistic, but I don’t think it’s my imagination. Why are we surprised when people are actually nice to us and have manners? It’s because we’re not used to it all the time. Now, I do believe in the premise that most people are basically good, hard-working folk, although perhaps to differing degrees. But I wouldn’t be writing this post if it wasn’t noticeable.
Is it just in my area or are others noticing the same phenom? Will it immediately change on December 26th? Well the only good thing about that is I’ll have more subjects to write about.
Happy Holidays from PeopleareParked.com!

I’ve noticed that too and thought it was my imagination. It’s a good thing!
