Wordle 610: Par?

 Been a few days without a hat trick.

In Wuxi for a Weekend

 

I’m in Wuxi this weekend.

Eventful it has been, in a way.

I managed to get a local driver annoyed.  He had cut me off.  So I cut him off.  He then then one of those maneuvers done by a driver with road rage… towards me.  Interesting.  Very interesting.

My son and I went to a downtown shopping mall around lunch time.  The Hen Long Mall parking garage was full.  It took us forever to find a parking spot.  When we did, we spent an even longer time waiting for an elevator to take us to the surface.  There had to be stairs, I said to my son.  And there was.  As we were in the stairwell, I encountered a foreigner, and complained to him that we had spent ten minutes waiting for a lift.  He shared my exasperation.

We went to the mall so we could go to this place that sells pizza by the slice.  It’s not in the mall, but a couple blocks away.  We both had a slice of pepperoni pizza and a slice of chicken jalapeño pizza.  Another foreigner came in the place and I overheard him say that the one city he wanted to go in the world was Rome, for it was the center of the world.

Just as we left the restaurant, we encountered yet another foreigner.  He looked to be walking down the street and he seemed to be wondering about the place we had just left.  I said to him that the pizza in this place was good.  He said to me: “I’ll give her a try, mate!”

No Electricity

 I was sitting on the toilet.  It was about 5:45 AM. The electricity went out.

I went to the circuit box and found that a switch was stuck, melted stuck,  Not much I could do then but put on my 5G and send my landlord a text message.

An electrician came.  I showed him the problem.  He took the switch out:

It was fried.  Was it because it was old or because I had too many things on?

Parking Drama

The photo above shows a car stopped without a driver such that it is blocking the lane.  What you can’t see is that it is stopped at the entrance to an underground parking garage.  The security guard is on the phone.

A moment after the photo was taken, the driver returned to the scene and had loud words with the security guard. The driver then got into his car and drove it toward ahead a bit so that it was closer to the entrance gate of the underground parking and not blocking the lane.

The entrance gate has a device that can read license plates.  The driver maybe hasn’t paid his parking fees; or maybe has paid his fees and is wondering WTF.

Some Sunday excitement.

Building a Better Future

 Politicians use this phrase all the time.  It implies that there is more than one future.  So how many futures are there?  At least two if you can compare futures.  Since politicians screw things up inevitably, there has to be a worse future which makes three.

But if there are three futures, why not use a superlative?  Talk about making the best future!

So It is confusing to know how many futures, politicians think there are.  If the future is a range of possibilities, why have politicians seemingly narrowed the possibilities to two: the future they aren’t building and the better future that they say they are?
