NYC subways are in far better shape than they were in the ‘80s, but they’re still not as clean as most other cities’.
But they can also be splendid, with beautiful greenery and big, showy flowers.
:) don’t even know you...but I love you! those are some great thoughts, there. By the time we buy our small, SMALL, small minifarm, our girls will probably pretend to not even know us.....which will be by tomorrow. Goats might be the way to go...if at all. :P
Oh, for Pete's sake. He planted flowers.
yeah. sorry. meant to say “expect”.
Now they will have the meeting with the neighbors, who will tear them a new one for pulling the flowers. The vote will be 16,821 to 0 in favor of the plants.
Henry Docter offers to re-plant for free and take care of them for free. He is turned down and threatened with arrest if he trespasses.
Then they will hire a union landscape architect to re-plant them for $250,000. They will pay their union slugs to water them, but they will ‘forget’ and the plants will die.
They will pay $350,000 to have them ripped out and $275,000 (inflation) to re-plant them. They will also pay the landscapers $10,000 a week to water them. Forgetting that the plants will not need watering in the winter, they fail to notice that there will be 52 weekly waterings. Since the contract is for three years, they are stuck.
“so now we’re going on “just do nice things, even if you are trespassing or making your own judgment on ‘nice’”?
I ask again....was he going to tend it? Did he make this “nice” gesture and except DC to take care of it? Was it in their budget to do so? When it overtakes the escalator (which it would if it isn’t tending), who pays for repairs? “
I’m not the spelling or grammar police but I’ll do this just this once along with the disclaimer that I am sure I have misused and misspelled words before. Just seemed like you were struggling a bit.
I think the word you are looking for is “expect” not “ except “.
“attended” or “ tended “ instead of “ tending “
Hope this helps No big deal.
believe it or not...it does help. I think in Post 65ish I saw that. but thanks.
Don’t cross a bureaucrat. Whether in government or business they’re the anti-entrepreneurs and power-mad all. Luckily, in businesses they get fired or kill the company. In government they just keep killing us.
He would have gotten more mileage out of it if he’d planted marijuana.
What city?
Let government run things as they see fit. We've got our representatives to do the thinking for us. You vote once and your troubles are over.
Go get me a coffee, slave.
Is forbidden!
actually....I really wondered what would have happened if he had planted marijuana. :) But then DC would want their cut.

Verboten?
LOLOLOLOL
You guys ought to write books!

I would bet that the big objection was that no union labor was involved.
How dare these serfs volunteer! All good only comes from the government and public employees unions!(Do I really need a sarcasm tag?)
