As Cameraman Bruce was taking a picture of this enormous hole, someone decided to drive thru it (she was yapping on her phone). In fact dozens of people hit it while we were walking to the Elmen Center last night (33rd street).

We have one on our road that is similiar right outside to the left of our driveway. Have been tempted to fill it with landscaping gravel from side of house to save a few cars. The whole road is getting bad and the ones around town are horrendous.
this would probably be a good time for a history lesson on what happened to the penny sales tax that was supposed to pay for street repairs.
Diverted to help promoters and artists to make millions.
That’s actually the beginnings of a wormhole, which will allow Augie students to attend USC, Stanford, and Yale.

I actually went to the gift shop that pothole has inside itself and bought a t-shirt. The t-shirt has an illustration of the Mayor’s head popping out of the hole (wearing a tie and well-shaven, too) with the words “Getting Down and Dirty…”
Brilliant, fill potholes with small cars! West Avenue between Russell and 12th is really bad. The city should bill it as an off road Jeep adventure.
Councilor Kiley’s wise guidance is that “you all just need to slow down, allow more time to reach your destinations, and be patient.” Maybe relevant when the worst that could happen was your horse “threw a shoe”, GRAMPS, but hardly realistic in the 21st century. Not his idea? THEN IT CAN’T BE A GOOD ONE. Adolescent contrariness, plain and simple.
