They're Here...They're STILL Here...

That's right: the potholes from hell are still with us, 3 months after their birth. But progress is being made: just last week I saw a 3-man road crew shoveling some fresh asphalt into a few pits on a major highway. They then tamped it down...with their shovels. And I'll bet they were shocked the next day to find that all their magnificent work had magically disappeared. If you think it's bad for cars, what about for motorcycles? A group of two-wheelers got so angry that they carried out a small protest march recently in downtown Brussels. The result? You guessed it: three months and counting. If the bikers' group was just a bit larger, they could form a union and then go on strike. I believe that striking has now overtaken soccer as Europe's biggest sport.
