After seeing all these images of ice coated cars, my sick mind begins to wander.

I remember hearing of a tradition in downtown Boston where people shovel out public parking spots on the street in front of their houses, and then "reserve" them by placing a cone or lawn chair or something in the space. If someone takes their reserved spot, they sometime will vandalize that car. A better solution, in my opinion, would be to set up a lawn sprinkler and let the parking spot thief return in the morning to find their car entombed in ice like this. Would send the message without any actual damage to the car. I wonder what the law would have to say about this?
