Guess What...


Can you guess what this is, without reading further? You can click on it, and it will open in a larger window - I have posted a larger image which might help you to figure out what this is. Please try looking, before you continue reading.
So I was in Huntington, waiting to cross a busy street at the busiest intersection in town. I pushed the button for the walk light, and then waited about a minute for the light to change. While I was looking around, I saw this about a foot in front of my nose! At first I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I looked again. Wow! It is a utility pole, with about a billion staples in it! Whaaaat? Then I realized, that this has to be the most popular place to staple a poster in the whole town. Now there are no posters, but the staples remain. I mean, it is unbelievable how many staples there are here. Did you figure it out?

  1. You wait for the "Walk" light? I always thought NYers are born with a jaywalking gene.

  2. I have a utility pole across from me that is used for tag sale signs so I guessed right away. Not quite as many staples. It is supposed to be illegal! :-)
