Today's installment of ASK THE BORED is an updated encore presentation of an unanswered question from November of 2016.
---
You're outside walking the pooch after dark, and you trip on a malformed sidewalk that hasn't been repaired since the Kennedy years.
"Damn," you curse. "If only the street light would have been functional, I could have minded the gap."
And so you go to the city's snazzy upgraded web site, the one where you're greeted by a billboard-sized portrait of Our Beloved Leader, in order to report the street light outage, because you know the sidewalk's gonna be toast at least until the second Chelsea Clinton administration.
So much for that -- and be aware that searching for street light, street lamp and their plurals also comes up empty.
Surmising that the city probably has outsourced all such matters to the utility monopolies, which play a central role in campaign finance for those aspiring to be President Chelsea's local branded representative, you're off to Google.
Problem is, Duke says "no can do" in Indiana.
It appears to be a procedure for reporting street light outages. I tried it this evening (marked in red below).
This week's question to the Bored, destined to remain unanswered just like the rest: Exactly what is the procedure for reporting a street light outage? Is it Duke, or must citizens take a half day off from work to pay homage to Chairman Warren in person?
And: Shouldn't this information be on the city's web site?
Also this: Is it Happy Hour yet?
