    think owning a beetle qualifies as being handicapped.

    Photon torpedoes?! Wow! Your Klingon Attack Cruiser is really cleverly disguised as an old-style Beetle—even better than cloaking!

    They look like very old, and they drive an old Volkswagen. It’s their right to be considered disabled.

    it’s all about risk – around here there is much less risk of getting a ticket from parking NEXT TO THE DOORS then in a disabled parking spot in a lot TEN STEPS AWAY- so that’s what all the lazy SOB’s do.

    If you’ve illegally parked in the handicap spot, aren’t you then qualified as morally handicapped? Shoulda used the cloaking.

    My Mom was standing in line at the grocery store and the womn behind her was commenting about a car in the handicapped space with no handicapped tag. My Mom said she just figured that if the handicap isn’t physical it must be mental. The woman in front of her turned around and, in a huff, said “Well, I never!”

    The rabbit, especially in the third panel, bares some likeness to Bill the Cat. Hmm.

    I am amazed, and really really happy that the Volkswagen people in the final strip or I mean in the final panel were willing to play along so happily, I mean it’s brilliant that the old lady was willing to fight back, so awesomely life can be fun. Sometimes you just gotta play along dan a.k.a.…
