Banter

So, at one of the properties I’m working on, some miscreant came up to an exposed manhole and spray-painted a naked girl on the side of it. Of course, since the property is looking to be sold, that’s an eyesore that I’ll have to take care of. I’m leaving myself a reminder in my phone when the following conversation happens:

Me: Hmm, I wonder how bad it would be if my wife saw “take care of naked girl” on my calendar?

Other guy: Well, you could put “take care of manhole”.

Me: Manhole? Really, that’s better?

    Sorry…I am constantly trying to put myself in the mindset of a liberal so as to better understand them.

    HL, you can try all you want, but you will NEVER get your head THAT far up your ass!

    The artistry of graffiti is readily removed from sight by use of a small collection of spray paints in colors matching the exterior walls, and maybe cement gray.

    Learned that watching an old made for TV movie about the Mayflower Madame IIRC.

    If it’s a halfway decent drawing, why not just pretty it up a little bit more with maybe a background of flowers and/or rainbows? Seriously, up here a manhole cover is about $40.00. See what the yard will give you in trade for the painted one. Might save time and money.

    “If you’ve got a business — you didn’t build that. Somebody else made that happen.” Follow the advice of your president, and just take somebody else’s cover to replace yours. You’ll be stimulating the economy at the same time.

    You ARE going to take photos for posterity and the art critics among your faithful readers, right?

    Probably shouldn’t have to be said, but:

    Pictures or it didn’t happen.

  9. NotClauswitz Says:

    Sounds like a BIG manhole, or has spray-painting become more refined? I used brake-cleaner to remove graffiti from our garage once when some idiot on the way to Shoreline decided to tag it.

  10. Sendarius Says:

    I used a 12-gauge to remove graffiti from our fence, the one time it got tagged.

    It took the bastard all day, but Mr Mossberg said that the artist wasn’t leaving until he had painted the WHOLE thing.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
