Driver's Ed
The summer school driver's ed class uses our street and the cross-street to practice uphill/downhill parking and parallel parking. I see the driver's ed cars out in front constantly. Right now there is a car parallel parking in front of our house. BONK go the tires as the kid drives helplessly backwards into the curb five times in a row.
Please give me ideas for things I can do to torment them. (I won't use them, but it's fun to think about.)

We used to stand outside with numbers and hold up scores......
Maybe we can rent a crippled nun in a wheelchair and put her near the curb.
Or Quinn and I can be playing ball and I let it roll into the street.
Hmm. You could put two one-way street signs up, each pointing in a different direction.
When one of them bumps the curb, you could run out your front door yelling something about damages and personal suffering and such. Finish with "I'll see YOU in court!" then hand them business cards with your attorney's name.
That's a little involved...but it would be fun to see the look on the face of the driver AND the driver's ed teacher, doncha think?
....Evil, yet involved:
Hide behind a tree or a bush and as they think they've finished parking toss some meat under the tires with a collar around it that says "Sparky" or something... Make sure you leave some of it so that the drivers ed teacher can see it. Lil bit of pigs blood on the curb and tires would help, too.
Set up a lawn sprinkler to hit the car with a sudden burst of water. When the teacher complains, say "Hey, they need to learn how to park in the rain too!"
Amy! When did you get so wicked?! lol
I thought I could last without reading the Quinn blog, but i have found that I can't. Can I have access??
