We do this for two reasons:
  1. They make a viciously good Africano
  2. The metered parking there becomes a tow-away zone from 3p-7p
We have affectionately come to give this afternoon ritual the name “Tow Fail”.

Today’s tow fail was especially good and karmic because we got to watch a Comcast van get ticketed and towed:

Honestly, I was having sort of a crap day, and spending 10 minutes watching this guy get towed completely brightened my day up.  I normally feel slightly guilty watching everyday people’s cars get towed – so it was nice not to have any conscience eating at me this time.  ;-)
