The Holey Land

I've always wanted to travel the world and see the sights.
London, Paris, Rome, Cairo, Jerusalem-all just waiting for me.
Little did I know that the world would come to me instead.
Welcome to the Holey Land!

Yep, the Holey Land -- right in front of my house.
Holes everywhere up and down the street.
Big, deep ones! Covered with giant metal slabs!

This slab didn't entirely cover the hole.
Be careful -- this one goes all the way to China!
Yes, you can visit the Holey Land and have egg rolls at the same time.
Practically the entire town has become part of the Holey Land, thanks to stimulus dollars.
Thank you, Mister President, for the new sewer lines.
And thank you, dear reader, for touring the Holey Land.
Come again another time and tour the Repaired and Repaved Land.

Tail Light Tale


So this is what my tail light looked like after work.

Notice that bits and pieces are missing.

Notice the white paint smudges the perpetrator left behind.

I know it's only a tail light, but geez...

If you are the guilty party, please write me a heft check and wrap it nicely around a large chocolate bar.

Leave the check and the chocolate on my doorstep.

All will be forgiven.
