Photo By Jeff Skrenes
Jeff Skrenes was out doing a survey of the Eco Village area in the Hawthorne Neighborhood, plus 6th Street N., and took a lot of pictures. In reviewing the photos forwarded by Jeff I spotted (oh, be still, my foolish heart!) an image which is...
...quite obviously an example of a STUPID NORTH MINNEAPOLIS PROPERTY REPAIR. YES!!!!!! SCORE!!!!!!!!!
See, recently the Minneapolis Investment Property blog has been trying to keep up the pace of blogging about this phenomenon, click here...which its blog master (admittedly) first documented and labeled...but can the guy who pioneered blogging about this phenomenon POSSIBLY keep up with murderously prolific nature of this blog?
(Pushing 100 posts this month, baby!!!!)
I doubt it. I highly doubt it. Not when there's my "bullet hole fixed with duct tape" example to compete with. Dream on, Minneeapolis Investment Property blog!
So, anyway, in regard to the picture taken by Jeff...well, I'm not precisely sure what was being attempted, here, by the person who nailed up those weird shingle-looking things, but I know STUPID when I see it, and I'm calling it.
Being the amazing, true-to-life adventures and (very likely) misadventures of a writer who seeks to take his education, activism and seemingly boundless energy to North Minneapolis, (NoMi) to help with a process of turning a rapidly revitalizing neighborhood into something approaching Urban Utopia. I am here to be near my child. From 02/08 to 06/15 this blog pushed free speech to the envelope, so others could take heart and speak unafraid. Email me at hoffjohnw@gmail.com

This is crazy! I was out documenting properties that were open to trespass. It was getting dark and I couldn't see a heck of a lot. Plus I don't want to cross the threshold. So I just stuck my camera into the darkness (it has an awesome flash) and snapped a shot. I didn't even realize what I'd captured on film until later.
What the heck were they going for? The hillbilly look?
Looks like that paneling you can buy to make a cedar closet. $15/box at menards. Why in tarnation would anybody use it like that? Maybe they think it keeps away the rats?
Oh, even cheaper at the Re-use store on Broadway!
