Sell all that scrap aluminum to pay for the lights.

Wouldn't have happened with Quick Action Automatically Rising Bollards (tm)

I rest my case.

A good friend of mine is a trucker. Recently one of his coworkers, a right pain in the ass, had to put his money were his mouth is. The guy bad to take a long haul that wasn't really worth the money to the company to a new site in NYC. He did the same thing this guy did. Different tunnel on the route north but the same thing. Adding insult to injury it was a brand new trailer on its first run. Oh, did I mention this guy was also a manager at the company and the guy that rode people the hardest for minor screw-ups? Karma is a bitch and she has your cell number!

Ya'll heard about the trucker who got stuck under a bridge?
As the snickering trooper came walking up he asks
"What's the matter, truck too tall?"
The trucker replied,
"Shoot, no. I'm just delivering this bridge!
Where do you want it?"

That city limits sign... How ridiculas that they have to replace them every time another bureaucrat is enthroned!!

Only two sets, one on display and one waiting for repainting the names. Not a strain for a city with a multi-billion dollar yearly budget.
