A ticket to park?

Verbal Jazz was the proud recipient of a delinquent parking ticket notice from the Town of Newport, Rhode Island. The only problem is that neither I, nor the Missus Jazz were anyway near Newport on the day in question. After playing verbal tennis with the parking office clerk, I found out that the actual car in question is yellow while the automobile of Verbal Jazz is blue. When I asked how this error could occur the parking office clerk suggested that the ticket blew away. Yes, there was a brief, stunned silence on my end. My working theory is that the meter maid who wrote the ticket in question didn't like something posted on Verbal Jazz.
