Sometimes we have those little epiphanies in the shower.. sometimes they come from other places. This is a home for those epiphanies.

Fixing a pothole is more then just slapping a layer of asphalt over the hole.

There is enough, but road maintenance and road building are two separate budgets, and the former tends to always be empty, hence maintenance measures are put off.
