    There was a picture of a pot hole in our local paper. It showed a 2ft wide hole in the blacktop about 4 inches deep… at the bottom of the hole was brick paving in perfect condition. Why would the city cover a brick residential street with in excellent condition with paving that can’t survive an Ohio winter? Some of those (still bricked streets) are in excellent usable condition and they are in neighborhoods that are eight decades or more old.

    Dear Constituents;We will be needing more money before we can do the things for which we have specifically requisitioned funds previously, because we have spent those funds on other things. While waiting for those services for which our government was specifically organized, please enjoy these complementary regulations that do nothing to improve health, safety or commerce, but do address some pet peeves of several people who are very vocal or very well connected.Thank you!

    Is this another, rather oblique, Stephan Pastis tribute? So many comics with crocs and zebras these days…

    Hard to say but it looks like the pale blue denial to me. :)Somewhere between the first cataract and the zebra crossing.

    I haven’t read either but I’ve heard they are good adventure stories. I’ll accept your endorsement and I’ll look out for them.

    Tea party republicans refused to pay taxes; infrastructure will slow down even more.

    I believe that some Pot-Holes have been designated “Heritage Pot-Holes” here in Regina, SK., Canada. We tear down wonderful old buildings; but don’t fix our HPHs!My parents home in Omaha NE, was built in 1967 and the street in front is 8 inch re-enforced concrete; and guess what: Never needs repair! Do it right the first time and forget it. Concrete is a long-lasting STRUCTURE; asphalt is only a “coating”; if the sub-grade is garbage there will be pot-holes…. and don’t EVEN get me started about un-proper drainage and how that affects a road…. ;-( Sorry… an engineer is ranting….

    If local governments could go back to the use of concrete (which costs more but lasts much longer) instead of relying on cheaper asphalt, we’d see fewer potholes. You get what you pay for.

    Oh, they’ll fix them; probably on February 31st! But here’s the thing: February only has 28 days; except during leap years, when it has 29.

    “Whenever the calendar date says February 31st, that’s when we’ll fix everything!”

    o:-D

    After this winter we had potholes longer than our van and as wide as the whole lane, they’ve been “patching” them with lumps back top tossed from the back of a moving DOT vechile, those weren’t sticking so as soon as it got warm they upgraded to tar covered by gravel in the bad spots.

    In my small mid western town……they started to fix pot holes, but they ran out of one of two key ingredients…..MONEY or dead Volkswagen Beetles.

    @ wrwallaceii: Street bricks, as long-lasting as they are, may have been good for paving streets that might have regularly been travelled by horse-drawn carts or milk or ice trucks (this was the 1920s and ‘30s after all), but they’d be rather hard on today’s modern tires. Asphalt doesn’t last as long, but — in theory at least — it’s easier and cheaper to repair. (Of course, the Engineers reckoned without the “deferred-maintenance-at-all-costs” attitude of our current crop of Teabagging politicos…)

    The actual holes might be bigger elsewhere, but nobody can beat Michigan right now for the condition of the roads. The patch jobs have created the washboard effect in the cement on expressways. And they just can’t find the money to fix them in that “surplus” which they are going to return to taxpayers to solicit their re-election.

    The government can’t handle even its most basic function, such as keeping our roads in good, usable condition, and yet they think that they can handle something much more difficult, like healthcare.
