DIGGING FOR CHINA ... AT 7TH AND MONTANA!

                             

A funny thing happened at 7th and Montana this morning.  While dozens of Unsuspecting Customers were getting wired at Our Favorite Starbucks, a team of workers toiled underground to get everyone unwired.  Specifically, they removed miles of copper wires that criss cross the neighborhood.  "Now that Verizon has installed Fiber Optics, no one needs the Old Copper Wires anymore," said one of the workers, "So we're ripping everything out!"  Evidently, Verizon was forced to pay taxes on the Old Network whether they used it or not, so they came up with an ingenious solution:  They're selling their used wires to China.  Now that's what I call digging for China ...!

Or another man's treasure...amazing what you can get for collecting copper.  We actually have people thieving for the stuff in our area to sell it for cash.  Crazy.
