Timber...


About to walk over and see the engineer guys knock over the Louisiana Tech Water Tower. It's been there about 75 years. It's not a life-changing event or anything -- unless I'm standing in the way -- but I've never seen a water tower get knocked over before. I've always just seen them in their natural state -- standing up. Filled, I've always assumed, with water. They've knocked a big hole in this one and sawed off a piece of a leg. They're supposed to make one more saw and then .... seeya. The tower's water-holding part is supposed to just pancake when it hits the ground. We'll see. Hope you didn't park over there...
