Read in a really whiny voice: "But Last Thursday is what makes Portland Poooorrrtlaaaaanddd!"

This post was pure Blabby porn.

This is kind of the problem with having cars towed from in front of a house: It's pretty obvious who had it towed. To me, it's usually not worth the momentary satisfaction to wonder when the aggrieved asshole is going to either come to your door or slash your tires in the next couple weeks.

Just park your car all the way down the driveway, or park in front of your own driveway those 6 days a year.

@ CC:

I can see your point, but it doesn't sound like Tarman would agree with you (though his wife apparently does). And this was the second time these very guys did this -- it appears that Tarman did precisely what you recommended the first time around.

I don't know if his bruises and the damage to his property will be worth it to him in the end, but the rest of us certainly benefited: We got a couple of punks off the streets for a while. And i'll bet you a pretty penny that they won't ever pull a stunt like this again. Dudes are going to be saints when it comes to parking from here on out.

This story would have been so much more exciting if he would have beat them senseless with a drilldo instead.

Probably a good thing for the thugs that he didn't have a nail gun laying around handy.

Good for you Tarman.

Now that Alberta is Hawthorne, can we just cancel this bridge and tunneler nonsense?
