Picture #1 - The T-bird was a part of Susan's mother’s legacy. She was a neat lady and the car lasted for many years and was a great help to our family. It went to the Polly Klaus foundation
Picture #2 – This is Susan keeping her chickens away from Lasha who is eating raw chicken. I know there is a political statement in here but I am just not sure where.
Picture #3 – This picture is of a thief – I do not think what he did was right and he should be caught and punished. He will answer for his theft to God also. But still there is a part of me that admires his chutzpah.
Outside England's Bristol Zoo there is a parking lot for 150 cars and 8 buses. For 25 years, its parking fees were managed by a very pleasant attendant. The fees were £1 for cars ($1.40), £5 for busses (about $7).
Then, one day, after 25 solid years of never missing a day of work, he just didn't show up; so the Zoo Management called the City Council and asked it to send them another parking agent.
The Council did some research and replied that the parking lot was the Zoo's own responsibility. The Zoo advised the Council that the attendant was a City employee.
The City Council responded that the lot attendant had never been on the City payroll.
Meanwhile, sitting in his villa somewhere on the coast of Spain (or some such scenario), is a man who'd apparently had a ticket machine installed completely on his own; and then had simply begun to show up every day, commencing to collect and keep the parking fees, estimated at about $560 per day -- for 25 years. Assuming 7 days a week, this amounts to just over $7 million dollars!
And no one even knows his name.
As I said I think what he did was wrong but...

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but it seems that didn't really happen. I just had to look him up to see if they ever found him, but found this instead http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/b/bristol-zoo-carpark.htm
Wait ... maybe that's good news. lol
