Looming storm clouds approaching at the end of the parking lot.
Have you noticed shopping carts being ditched in odd places in your neighborhoods? I see them all the time now. At least these shopping carts were left near the store they were used. I see so many homeless people pushing carts around town. They are like collectors, and they always seem to be looking for opportunities. Maybe that's why they chuck the shopping cart as soon as they find a more convenient place to offload their stuff.
Sometimes I feel like I am already living in the Road Warrior (Mad Max) movie. People around my work especially already have the smokey bikes, the crazy hair, and clothes that look like they were hooked together with chain links. The mayor is always more interested in his popularity and using the police for his own protection than helping these guys taking over the streets or clearing them out. The only thing missing is Mel Gibson and the Aussie slang.
