Seen on Tulane Avenue

Driving home this afternoon I was stuck in traffic on a shabby stretch of Tulane Avenue. So I was looking around.

There was a plain grey building with a sign on the door.

"OPEN 24 HOURS 7 DAYS MUST BE 21"

A bar, perhaps? But there was no other sign, no clue whatsoever about the nature of the place.

Then some guy walks in. Videos! Magazines! Posters of naked chicks! It's a porn store! Who knew?

And then, on down the street at the intersection of Tulane and Carrollton, more strangeness.

It was a Lamborghini, cherry red and showroom new, parked in the middle of the street. Both doors were open. A number of cops were milling around, looking in the car and seeming bemused. No suspects in the cop cars, either. No suspects at all, really, though the cops were looking around as if the might catch sight of someone running away with a Lamborghini keychain in hand.

Who abandoned that car? And what pushes someone to abandon a car that sweet?
