Episode 257: Gambler

Mazolli parks next to a stretch of curb painted bright yellow and goes into the licensing office to renew his driver’s license. When he returns he finds a parking ticket on the windshield. He puts the ticket in his pocket, then drives home. At the kitchen table he writes a check for the penalty, puts it in an envelope, seals the envelope, addresses the envelope, sticks a stamp on it, and puts it near the door to take to the post office in the morning. He gets a calculator from the junk drawer and begins to balance the checkbook.
