I guess that is one way to bring attention to the number of potholes that are causing trouble...throw a birthday party for the pothole.  I'll bring the cake!

According to Foxnews.com, residents in Jackson MS, did exactly that, in a joking manner, of course.  However, it seems to be an effective, yet sarcastic way to let authorities know that there is a problem.

When this party received a lot of attention, especially from local media, suddenly something was being done about it.

Should we do that here in the Utica area?  Maybe.  I can name a few spots that could certainly use some attention.  Many, it seems, reappear every year, mostly because it seems as though a patch is applied, but the patch just isn't sticking.

Where in this area do you think there a lot of potholes?  Have you reported them to anyone?
