A fine largely untrafficked road along the New Homo Sapiens golf course. We really needed a trail built here; why not just call it a sidewalk and we'll shuddup.
TINY TOWN, USA –
A CITIZEN ASKS: Yo, why are you peoples harshin the city's mellow trail path for white people walkercise thing? And can't we name it afta a famous black person like Ron Artest?
Tiny Town responds to your responsible question with our own questions:
1) Don't we have a lot of potholes to fill? Doesn't it actually require a shovel to fill a pothole?
2) Couldn't shovel-ready funds be put in reserve until a season when we weren't raping the natural flora and fauna?
3) Why are we building a trail next to a little used road with that funny house at the end of it that keeps catching on fire? You'd think the fire department would have condemned it by now and gotten rid of it.

It catches fire and the firemen stand around and attack it repeatedly with tons of water then talk about it instead of going back to the station to watch TV! Then THEY set it on fire again and the whole thing repeats itself -- that's the very definition of insanity!
[Yes, this does remind us of Ron Artest, the LA Lakers forward who still remains the only champion, black or white, to praise his psychiatrist in a post-game triumphant and nonsensical rant. We hired Ron immediately to take us out for sushi. His agent will get back to us about naming the road. We are with you, brutha. We can call you "brutha" mayn't we?]
NOTE: The yet unburnt place in the back looks ok.
It needs a few windows but surely it would fetch a good price being right near the Pissant Waterfront Trail.
4) We do not understand why white people, in particular, are so attracted to waterways and biting insects that they will do and pay whatever it takes to get near these habitats.
5) What will become of the shopping cart graveyard -- will wise planners turn this eyesore into an art installation? Can we still get free mulch from the city mulch pile? Or will there some day be no such thing as a free mulch in Tiny Town?

DREAMS DEFERRED: These shopping carts had hopes, just like any other sentient being. Look ye, upon our works and weep. And hey -- isn't the net on that city hoop still in good shape? Someone should hop the fence and grab it.
