Happy Birthday To You……..You…..Pothole?
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?
