Thinking Out Loud

« Low-key Carroll has high-rise hopes for downtown's rebirth | Main | 'Lasting Impressions' »

I thought that I should never see ...

... But I have ... graffiti plastered on a tree.

In blue paint, at Cone Boulevard and Summit Avenue.

I keep telling myself to stop ranting about local vandalism (for all the good it does).

But it's hard not to be angry ... and exasperated.

Sounds like possibly another one of Deena's civil rights strategies. I know... kind of hard to understand, but if opposing a schoolbond is a "civil rights strategy" it's kind of like anything goes. Wide open. Maybe she's protesting the unequal distribution of trees...Who knows?

I hate trees--I'm paying another several hundred bucks next week to get another stupid dead tree taken down in my yard--and even I find this absurd.

Yup, but you bought the house because of the trees, I'd wager.
Can't live with 'em ...

I am the Lorax and I speak for the trees!

Please, please tell the kids to stay away from my leaves!

I know it's Deena's kids who write on my trunk. If only they would stay in school and not flunk!

For when they're expelled and have nothing to do, that's when they come around and paint us blue!

Oh, Deena Hayes, please think of the trees! Get over to Smith and make them learn to READ!
