For some reason the beach, reminds me of a sandbox? And that reminds me of this article, architectural article, I read. About sandboxes. "Sandbox Standards." See, sandboxes are a problem, for school designers, because of KITTYS. Yes. Not surprising, is it. KITTYS; up to their usual. Kids in sandboxes get dirty and eat stuff and die, and instead of suing the damn felines, they sue the Creator. So this article mentioned FENCING the sandboxes, and x-raying kids' lunch pails to look for cats coming to school. And someone had come up with this idea, that is what I wanted to mention, because I have never really figured out how I would like to critique this brain, The Brain What Thot This Up: He decided to supply large quantities of WATER to the bottom of the sandbox, subterraneally, and FLOOD the sandbox; raise the water in Lake Biobath and float the floaters to the top and whoosh over the rim of sandbox to a perimeter sewer-linked drain. There was one more sentence in the article I think, where someone thought of, or noted, a problem with this approach and the results, yet it escapes me. Eludes me. But I think I should be doing some Follow Up on that, just to see what the Art of the San-Box Sandbox is up to, these days. The San(Sanitary) Sandbox. (Comes with Sanitary Napkins.) And San-Sandbox? Gets a loop of paper across the top when it's fresh and clean, so you know. The kids can have a ribbon cutting every Monday. Maybe that last line, I forgot, was that CLEAN sand, INCREASED the total number of CAT VISITS. "Oh my! Clean sand. Well alrighty. I need to crap." Vicious cycle. "We can't keep up with these pigs. We need to run the water all the time." I suppose I could get a photo, take a photo of a ring of cats around the box Sunday afternoon, waiting for the sand to dry, and mail it to this guy. You know, discourage him. From his Life Goal. I wonder where he lives. And if he tells people what he does. I need to find that article. Where was that? I could follow up, now. The State Of The Sandbox.
