the neighborhood, part 3

There was a shooting on the corner.

5 shots fired is what everyone says.

It happened 15 minutes ago.

The police station is 3 blocks away.

The cops haven't arrived yet.

****************************

If you park in the 2-hour-parking zone in front of my work for 2 hours and 5 minutes, you will surely get a ticket.

That's also 3 blocks away.

I guess the city doesn't earn money from shootings.

That's probably just as well.

Life is cheap.

Parking is expensive.

Very sad, and too true. I knew neighborhoods like this.
