Seeing IS Believing...
Ok, it must another THURSDAY then, right?
Correct you are.
Now since it's the VERNAL EQUINOX (huh?) I thought what could be better than to show you fine people what portents of Springtime really MEANS on the SOUTH side of our fair city.
And remember, with better weather, come worsening conditions down here for us dwindling number of "normals".

**Yessir, Spring is in the air (but the neighborhood smells more like feet)...and what could be nicer than to take the young'un for a stroll down the MIDDLE OF THE DAMN STREET? Oh gee, looks like a perfectly GOOD sidewalk within spitting distance (another nasty attribute of the local aboriginies), but alas, moving the baby stroller up ON that sidewalk would be too much like WORK.
"And all those cars travelling up and down the street at breakneck speed can go around my southside ass, 'cause I ain't movin' up on the curb".
Good for you, girl!
Make a statement! (that you're a good reason for late term abortion?)
Ah yes, 'tis Spring.

**What have we here? Can it be ANOTHER sign of impending warmer weather? Why I believe it IS. Looks like Jamarckus decided to score some crack right in the MIDDLE OF THE DAMN STREET (must be a cultural thing with streets).
And it's the third time this month.
He must have a drug problem.
Luckily, the police are nowhere to be found to interrupt his "transaction".
And that's GOOD for Jamarckus. Maybe if he turned that 130+Db car stereo DOWN a few notches, he could hear the dealer better?
Well, I guess those cars will just have to find an alternate route until Jamarckus gets his "rocks" off.
**Well, what do 'ya know.....looks like someone had a little party the other day (and most of the damn night, too). And just look at ALL that trash! And not one trace of RECYCLING in all that mess.
They don't even have enough 96 gallon BINS to hold all that stuff, either.
Shame on them!
I'll bet someone at Serv-All will wind up with a double hernia loading all that crap into the trash truck, hmm?
But maybe all the CROWS and other critters we have in the area can tear right into that trash, spread it out, and make some of those woefully heavy, overfilled bags a bit lighter.
Perhaps some of it will blow onto MY property, making THEIR job easier (for them, and annoying for me)? Don't you just LOVE the way the "circle of life" operates with such efficiency?
**Lastly, what could THIS be?
Is it the Beasty Boys? Nah, just some cute little gang bangers (in training) looking for an elderly person to assault. Nice to know that with all the STUFF young people have to keep them occupied AND amused, nothing "quite" says "fun" (around here) MORE than a nice strong-arm robbery. Bet that FWCS would love to know WHY they're not in school too, instead of heading to the local shopping center for some innocent shop-lifting.
Ah yes...Springtime on the south side of Fort Wayne.
Nothing can beat it.
And apparently not much is getting done to STOP it either.
No wonder my flowers take forever to come up through the ground. Even THEY don't like it down here. Kinda makes one wish for winter all over again. At least the locals tend to not be AS ACTIVE then.. But you know, having such people (like those pictured) in one particular area of a city this size is actually GOOD (for them...not US). The city KNOWS where they all are (pretty much, until they come to YOUR neighborhood to rob YOU), and can keep them "corraled" as it were.
And it's good to toss a bone to them once in a while (such as Renaissance Pointe) to keep them from burning this part of town to the ground (shades of Cleveland and L.A.). And hey, think of all that money from the STATE and the FEDS for ALL those "programs" designed to turn people like this into PRODUCTIVE citizens...
ROFLMAO....sorry...I can't help but laugh over that one.
Got to dash, now. Off to menards for some ground cover to hide my Punji Stick garden border (it's not evil...it's called Castle Doctrine). Just wish the city would allow me to DIG A DAMN MOAT around the property, and put an ONAGER out front of the house...LOL.

Enjoy the day...colder weather is coming back (what..again?)
