So, DCist contributor Andrew Wiseman was outside the Wilson Building earlier this afternoon and came across this silver Jaguar parked on Pennsylvania Avenue NW and fixed with a Denver boot and sitting on a hydraulic jack, seemingly left there after some midday repairs.

The shiny Jag belongs to none other than Ward 8 Councilman Marion Barry, whose parking troubles are, well, pretty familiar. He’s also quite the pig parker, if these recent shots on Prince of Petworth of the same vehicle stretched across a Barracks Row crosswalk are any evidence.

Or, as the Post’s Mike DeBonis put it after seeing Wiseman’s photo, “Oh, good god, Marion.”
