This morning, on Facebook, Mr. Galtex asked me another tricky question.
You can read that tricky question above the picture of the source of the tricky question.
After pondering Mr. Galtex's tricky question, for a moment or two, I answered the tricky question with...
Well, since there is water under this bridge, with the water appearing to be part of a real river, my guess would be this is not a Fort Worth bridge, which means I am going with the Ticino in Pavia, Italy option.
I wonder if the Italians built this bridge over the Ticino River before adding water to the riverbed under it, you know, what with that being the cost efficient way to build a bridge?
I wonder if the Italian bridge over the Ticino took four years to build?
Facebook just made its annoying notification noise. It's a reply from Mr. Galtex confirming I was correct in my answer to his tricky question...
I thought I might be able to fool you this time, but you correctly identified this signature bridge. That water was flowing very swiftly, too, quite unnerving for anyone accustomed to Trinity-type flow.
Regarding the Dunce Confederacy and their slow motion construction of Three Bridges Over Nothing.
It continues to annoy me that the Emperor continues to wander about town, wearing no clothes, with the people pointing out this fact being ignored by the masses going along with the buffoonery that the Emperor is wearing new clothes.
Translated to Fort Worth, The Emperor is that which used to be known as the Trinity River Vision Boondoggle, but which is now known as the Dunce Confederacy. With the Dunce Confederacy foisting on its loyal subjects the ridiculous scam that the reason the Dunce Confederacy is taking four years to build Three Bridges Over Nothing is because it will save a lot of money to build those bridges over dry land. And then add the flood diversion channel at some undetermined time in the future.
The truth of the matter is the more efficient way to build such a project would be to integrate the building of the bridges with the building of the channel. At the same time.
And a further obvious reality which shows the bogus-ness of the Dunce Confederacy dry bridge building scheme, is the fact that there will be no water in that flood diversion channel until water is diverted into it. In other words, the Three Bridges Over Nothing could be built over a totally dry flood diversion channel, under construction.
The reason the Dunce Confederacy is building the bridges over dry land, in slow motion, has nothing to do with cost efficiency. It is because they lack the funds to fund the construction of the un-needed flood diversion channel. Or build the bridges in a normal bridge construction timeline of far less than four years.
It does not take a lot of imagination to imagine if those Three Bridges Over Nothing actually do get built, and if that flood diversion channel then gets into construction mode, that there will arise a problem due to those bridges already being in place, something like the digging of the channel causing a problem with bridge support piers, or some other problem.
Bottom line truth is the fact that if the Dunce Confederacy's public works project was funded like any normal city funds its public works projects, both the channel and the bridges would currently be under construction.
And neither would take a ridiculous four years to build....
