  2. So many inappropriate comments to be made about the playground warnings...But it is very important to be careful when the equipment is wet.

    1. Particularly in light of the sign further down.

    2. I was particularly offended by the "Use the equipment correctly (see recommendations on the reverse side) for fun and safety."

      Nothing says FUN like reading about safety, and on a playground... yeesh. It might as well say "No pretending there is lava below, no pretending this is a spaceship or a castle, etc."

  4. Like most blogs... and like the mansions in Newport, your post did not actually show actual wasps, but only empty domiciles that once housed wasps. Crumbling houses and empty forms. Its enough to drive someone from old Ipswich to drink.

    2. Wasps often have large stingers:

  5. Brohammas,

    Good Shelley expressed it best:

    "Nothing besides remains. Round the decay,
    Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
    The lone and level sands stretch far away."

Let's keep it clean... but if you DO have to get foul, at least give it a bit of wit. Also, advertising disguised as comments will be deleted, unless it is clever.
