2 weeks ago there was a garbage can in the middle of the street in front of our house. There was garbage all over the street.
It was garbage day, so being the good cold-hating neighbors that we are, we waited to see what would happen.
It wasn't our garbage can, and looking up and down the street it wasn't immediately apparant who it belonged to.
The garbage man came by, picked up all the garbage and left the can upright on the side of the street.
And there it remains.
It is really bothering Noah and he has been intending to call about it and ask the garbage people to pick it up, but he hasn't yet.
Last night he came in and said, "You know that garbage can out in the street? It is really slowing down traffic on our road. I think I will leave it there and even put ours out next to it!"
Sounds perfect. If the city won't do anything to slow down the traffic, we may as well just start instituting our own roadblocks.
Maybe we can make our own speed bumps too.
Welcome to life in the 'burbs.

It's illegal to build your own speed bumbs.
yes and if you build speed bumps in Brasil with dirt they will just remove them(:
You would think the glaze ice would slow people down like it does on our street. Isn't it fun to live in a town that doesn't seem to believe in plowing?
