Lukes Jeep Spotting 4

I think there must be a rotating site selection list for the Lukes Jeep. I've seen it parked here in front of the college before. It's strategically positioned so that if you're sitting at the May Street stop sign, waiting for the endless line of traffic, the subliminal message on the Jeep will just keep impinging, deeper and deeper, the longer you sit there.

There might be such a list, but maybe Jim just hangs it on the wall and throws a dart at it to decide where it's going to end up being parked each day.

Or maybe it's a map of the city that a dart gets thrown at it.

Now that I think about it, though, I'll betcha Konnie decides. I mean, Jim does need a ride after he parks it...

It does seem to be a rotation, including Newton Square (where they left it yesterday) and the intersection of Forest and Grove.

Do they ever park it anywhere not on the West Side?

I've been meaning to ask, as well, Jeff, if you've caught the Petty trailer that seems to always be parked at Brosnihan Square?

The first time I got a picture of the Lukes Jeep, it was parked at Brittan Square at the very beginning of Burncoat Street.

Yeah, the Joe Petty trailer is parked at Posner Square (where Grafton, Winter, and Water intersect). It never moves. I should have chastised Joe about it when I chatted with him last monday evening at the Dive Bar Debate... but all I could think of when greeting him was saying, "Hey! It's Joe Petty and the Heartbreakers!"

The first time I saw the trailer with the sign, I took a picture of it. It didn't come out. So, I took another picture of it the next day. And when I got home with it, I thought, "Hey wait a minute! Am I gonna start doing SIGN SPOTTING now?" Well, it could work if the darn trailer got moved around, but it hasn't moved throughout the whole campaign season.

Of course, before next Tuesday that, in and of itself, would probably distinguish it enough to merit at least one post.
