Commenter goddesslunacy says...

...I was on my way to work and it was then that I noticed a note had been slipped onto my windshield at some point last night or this morning. I wanted to reach out and grab it as I was traveling at high speed on the freeway, but I knew my arm was not long enough. Sadly it lost grip and slipped away to a gusty asphalt graveyard. Now I am left to wonder who the left the note and what did it say?

What do you think it said?

Perhaps this or this?

Also, what if it was a parking ticket? Can you be arrested for not paying a parking ticket that you never knew existed?
