Challenge: Come up with a funny punchline.

How many city workers does it take to fix a pothole?

NONE...




...at least in Tulsa

Part of the problem also is people who do not maintain the curbs in front of their property. In my neighborhood, we have tons of mature trees, and in the fall some people don't even bother to clean up their leaves. Deadbeats.

This means those of us who do also have to clean up for those who don't. And a lot of leaves make their way to the curb, where they make a dam that prevents water from making it to the drains. This causes icy patches out in the street when it's cold outside.

I've also seen people blowing grass clippings into the sewers, which I know is not permitted. And I've seen these groups of guys in pickups who have landscaping companies doing this, and I would think they'd know better. They probably do, but just don't care. Someday I might report them. (Word of warning to any landscapers who do this: you might get spotted and reported.)
