Dear MiPermit, Thank you for explaining how to park my car in your car park, and how to pay for it online. It was a good plan given the time of day. I wanted to park the car like a normal person, plug a meter, and walk away. Except it’s not that easy. Why would […]
TOYOTA HIGHLANDER FOR LIFE?
April 18, 2024 by
I owned a Toyota Highlander, but it didn’t start that way. Somehow the wife and I went to a car dealership traded a van and ended up with a Rav4. She decided it was the worst car ever since I insisted on the barebones cheapest version. By the time we got home I knew it […]

GENERATIONAL GENERALITIES? DON’T TAKE THEM TO HEART
February 14, 2024 by
I admit that generational generalities come in handy. I use them all the time when I’m feeling too lazy to read anything new. Like a checked box, they are what they are and will never change. Never, ever, change. Except when they do. Then what?
PRIORITY LIST: WHERE TO START?
February 13, 2024 by
Priority list? Maybe you call it something else. What if it’s a list someone makes for you? From wife: Honey Do. At work: To Do. Your friends: How do you do? But this is your list. What happens if urgency doesn’t feel like a priority?
