Duck Pond Redneckery


The hospital is next to the Kankakee River. That's quite a coincidence because the name of the hospital is Riverside. 🤔

It has an elaborate flower garden with a brick path between the building and the river. There are 3 waterfalls, and I think two fancy gazebos & plenty of shaded benches where people can sit down and pretend like they're not smoking when doctors & nurses walk by on their lunch breaks.

It looks like they spent millions on the gardening, with big fancy stone retaining walls and water features and fountains and stuff. Lots of pointless abstract stainless steel sculptures, and two huge dead trees that were killed by beavers and look like they're in an extremely difficult location for removal because they're right at the shoreline and you can't get equipment back there without trashing the garden stuff.

I'm thinking if I can get my lift onto a big raft, probably need about ten trolling motors ... :headscratch2:
 
I took my dad to see his primary care doc. She's a black female "nurse practitioner".

Cute as a button, but when my dad asked her how the cortisone shots are able to help a pinched nerve, she told him to ask the neurosurgeon.

Not a problem, it's over her head I guess because it's a specialized field, except instead of "ask" she said "axe". 🙄

How the hell does ebonics make it into an educated person's vocabulary?

Obviously the river builders thought the best place for it was next to a hospital named Riverside.

The river has been there for like a hundred thousand million years, according to the extremely old Wikipedia authors who wrote about it.
If we see him in a Subaru we’ll know for sure Lol
I used to want a Subaru Forester until I realized only communists drive them. 😒
