The City That Works

Monday, November 2nd, 2009

More than a month ago, the city of Chicago tore up every street around my house so they could resurface them. On day one, they screwed up and broke the water main under my block. Though they've since repaved most of the other blocks around my house, the cryptic letter they left us said that ours won't be finished until "sometime in 2010."

In the meantime, we're left with this sign that fails to use either of the two acceptable spellings of "thru."

No Threw Traffic

Fortunately, I had my Sexy Nurse outfit with me

The typed text that she has crossed out appears to be the third paragraph of Finnegans Wake.
