What I learned from TV
On the drive home from the in-laws, we saw men in the median of the highway working on Friday. My first thought was do they get holiday pay. Then I saw what they were doing. They had hoses and were spraying green on the dirt. I actually know what they were doing and it excited me. I learned it from Mike Rowe. You know, Dirty Jobs Mike Rowe. Anyway, the reason they were doing it was to fight erosion–pretty much the green stuff was glue to hold the hill together. Who ever said you can’t learn anything from television?
