And it's always been thought, in fact, there used to be a marketing campaign. Coffee was the think drink, that it was supposed to help you concentrate and think better.

So drinking coffee may help you stay alert and be more productive, but drinking and smelling coffee can be even better. And that is something you should know.

you have to have a place to put it everywhere you go. Parking can be a hassle, it can be expensive, and in some places virtually impossible to find. Then, of course, there is paid parking and parking meters, which can result in expensive parking tickets... If you don't feed the meter. See, parking really is a big deal. In fact, did you know that in many U.S.

So when I think about the subject of parking, it doesn't feel like that's much of a subject, except that parking is something you complain about. There's never enough of it. You can't find a spot when you need it. So why dive into this topic? Why is this so interesting?
