Isn't the CITY supposed to maintain it's fountains?
ReplyDeleteOh yeah, that's right, they say they don't have the funds, and want to turn it over to private citizens to raise the money.
But gee whiz, Mr. Wilson!! The CITY sure spends a lot of money on legal settlements, the Mayor's Night for Urban Youth, and a streetcar system that was overwhelmingly defeated at the polls.
Artist requirements. No big lice beard; no meaningless sleeve or neck tattoos; no exaggerated dorky glasses; no Bill the Butcher hat or zany moustache; no package of roll-your-own tobacco in sight; no ironic t-shirt; no fusion tacos; no “craft” ale; no teenage girl’s jeans; no indoor ski hat or scarf. No pretention. Nothing.

Women MUST wear this season's "it" multicolored jogging shorts.
