i stand reprimanded......there apparentely is such a thing as disc golf --
The sport comes complete with poll and basket and chain.. Which looks for all the world like someone trying to cover a pipe coming out of the ground but apparently it's real and otherwise known as frisbee golf. and there were three guys throwing frisbees at a pole in that park when I went there can't say as it was really crowded but there were three people there throwing frisbees.. but hey but they they they couldn't have a dog chased the frisbee because dogs have to be on leash.. oh heavens..
Speaking of disguising a pole out of the ground I happen to know of a McDonald's restaurant which needed to pipe gases Up and out. and put in a very tall white pipe to do that.. so rather than have any questions they just hung a flag at the top and it works very nicely.
I'm not sure why that reminds me of a gas station Long ago---before digital gas pumps--- across from a very good college.. and very often the students there were hired to pump gas
.Being creative and students and intelligent. one of the employees bought stickers. So when he was on he adjusted the dollar stickers to be one more than actually pumped so that every time he pumped gas that particular pump got him an extra dollar.. he was at it for quite a while before it was discovered.
That's almost similar to the gas station around here which charges much much more for handicap pumping.. the attendant just quietly moves you forward to this particular pump where the gas last time I knew was about $0.60 more per gallon then the other three pumps on the property.. It has been reported to the various agencies.. and company.. but it is very carefully labeled so it's one of those things that you don't look at two carefully because you're accustomed to it ...assuming things is a very bad way to go.
Speaking of that-----I have always had a habit of reading the elevator inspection sticker ever since I was electrocuted by an elevator... and I was appalled to find most of them are overdue outdated or rejection stickers..
this became even more so when Bella and George got stuck in the school elevator between floors... and I am told that that elevator sticker said that it was rejected needed repair..
but the people running these elevators have another way to get around this ----they no longer put the sticker at eye level where you can read it... for awhile they put it. knee level... and then I got the following photo,, wanna see it.??.. go to the office.....
now how many people are gonna take the time To go to the office and say please let me see the elevator stickers... and I wonder what happens when you do that.. rest assured next time I go to Leahy hospital where I know damn well that thing says the sticker is in the office.. I will try and plan ahead and go to the office
beware of little old ladies with extra time on their hands
I figure it's up to us to have the time to correct some of these terrible things.. because if that elevator is properly inspected which I believe is the building inspector's job ---- then why would they put the sticker in the office... and you know how fond I am of building inspectors
