If I take the longer-but-nicer route into work when biking, I pass by what might be the worst business name ever:



IT'S A BOWEL'TYME
Partners on your Journey to Wellness
HydroColonic Therapy & More

Lady Justice holding up the hypnotic hourglass of doom is what wins me over, though. I kept meaning to get a picture, but since my camera isn't usually accessible when I'm biking, I didn't manage to until this Monday. So, ha ha ha, they have a really stupid name. And that would have been the end of it, except...

I was biking home today. As I passed, the door opened. This is on a fairly slow (for me) uphill section, so I had plenty of time to watch as someone came out. Carrying a big medical-looking container, made of transparent plastic. Filled with a darly colored liquid. Which they proceded to POUR ONTO THE SHRUBBERY.

Ew ew ew.

Tony adds: haven't they heard of TOILETS??!?

...I choose to believe that it was the leftover office coffee. Yes. That is what it was. You cannot dissuade me. I'm in my happy place, la la la la la...

Gyeugh. I'm glad I finished dinner before I saw this. You could fink on them to... who, the Seattle health department?

And that's some crazily bad marketing they've got there.

It might have been fish emulsion fertilizer? Or coffee grounds?

Just, you know. Being optimistic.

I'm betting fertilizer too. No, the kind that's not of human origin!

I dunno... He wasn't exactly sprinkling it around evenly. And it was a wide, fairly shallow, square container. Not the kind in which you'd mix things so much as, uh, catch drips. And it was covered with saran wrap, sort of held on with a rubber band.

It was certainly weird, even ignoring the obvious conclusions.

bong water?

That'd be a hell of a bong.

You know, that probably helps explain why the grass is so short on that end...

I'm not condoning this (alleged) practice, but... it actually would be good for the grass.

Obviously, whatever they're pouring at that end, the grass doesn't agree. :)

definately sounds like a health code violation to me!
