Here’s the scene on Harwood, where the Nasher Sculpture Center is getting a bit aggressive with its sprinklers. As a helpful reminder, here’s the city’s ordinance governing such over-watering.

Tim I agree with you, and applaud you for publishing this picture.
I bet you a nickel the Nasher has some sort of variance in place, allowing them to water whatever the hell they want to, whenever the hell they want to and as much as they want to. (I couldn’t figure out how to get a ‘hell’ in that last part.)
And thusly, the city code as it applies to you and I and everyone else in this city, does not apply to them.

I don’t know about how heavily they water, but I do know something about the watering at Nasher: http://bit.ly/hdaEzQ.

Cindy, you know by tattling on your friends, you’re really just tattling on yourself. By tattling on your friends, you’re just telling them that you’re a tattletale. Now is that the tale you want to tell?

If you walk in the street the cars will honk and their drivers will humiliate you with insults but if you walk on the sidewalk your shoes will get wet and soon smell like an infirm dog rolled in Parmesan.
It seemed inscrutable when I got it in the fortune cookie but now I understand.

@Daniel: I’m pleased they haven’t taken away your Internet privileges. You make me smile. You’re the wind beneath my wings.
