Warnings

Living in a high rise can prove interesting. The management often leave notices in the lift foyer telling residents of upcoming renovations, changes in bus timetables, the usual minutiae of life.

However there are two seperate warnings that are often posted that worry me greatly. The first is a constant reminder not to throw objects over the balcony. Each building is 20 floors or so, and at the base is a myriad of playgrounds, bike tracks and other public areas. File under the "bleeding obvious" category.

The second one is worse. It reminds residents the use of pellet guns off one's balcony is not just an offense but also dangerous. Just in case you weren't sure. That's right, no shooting guns off the side of a building. I'm glad they warned us.

Without being able to throw things out the window or shoot anything, what are we going to be able to do for fun?

When oh when will this blog stop rehashing alod complaints when new material is running dangerously low?

I refer you to your entry on 2 February this year called 'High Rise Living', where you talked about the strange warnings of pellet guns being fired off balconies.

Please treat your readership with more respect.

Should have said "old". Now explain why you treat your readership so poorly with your re-hashing?

Yes, why? I demand a public inquiry!
