My own rant doesn't really reach "rant" stage, as it's too dispiriting.
So... for the past two summers, there's been constant roadwork along the main drag out of my town; the worst aspect last summer was that it was at the intersection with the only road out of my neighborhood. One had a lot of time for cursing or meditation, depending on one's nature. And while the joke in northern climes is usually, "Two seasons: winter and roadwork," this year there was a third: winter and roadwork. But at least this was the latter year of two years of road improvement.
So yesterday, I'm driving north along this road and see one of those signs with dynamic messages. LAST WEEK OF PAVING Ah! Immediately followed by SEE YOU IN THE SPRING
What, what evil mind exists that could taunt the beleaguered local like that?
