Anyone remember these?

Yes, and those were "the latest and greatest in student desks" when I was in elementary school. Most of us had the one-piece metal base ones with the lidded desk on a post at the front and a seat at a post at the rear, with no ability to adjust distance.

Those were horrible. Only skinny kids could fit in them. I fit just fine but I didn't like that I couldn't scoot back when I needed to.

Bullhead City was bad like this a couple months ago. They are fixing the roads and repaving is almost finished. What a difference!

I wouldn't have thought the climate in Bullhead City would produce the kind of "frost heaving" and "road treating/plowing" decimation that's in that photo.

Having grown up in Western Pennsylvania, in the snow belt between Pittsburgh and Bedford, PA, in the pre-global warming era when the tax base was slowly being decimated this was the sort of road surface I dealt with on a routine basis. It's still pretty bad in Cambria County, PA, when I go back to visit.

Bullhead has grown exponentially and the roads have taken quite a beating. When I moved here 15 years ago, the roads were great and there was a lot less traffic.

Lots of good roads and highways for riding my motorcycle. I would ride forever on the awesome back roads. These days, not so much and I had to quit riding, due to physical health issues. I sure miss it, tho, and I've kept the bike on the off-chance I can be fixed.

Same here, I saw a sticker on a car the other day "I'm not drunk, just avoiding potholes".

I've heard it said that when the inventor of the USB connector leaves his mortal coil they will bury him as usual, then raise him, rotate him 180 degrees and re bury him...

I always say to people. "If you don't like the way I drive...stay off the footpath!"
