“The lady fell into the hole, luckily she’s fat, I think she has to put on a cast although I didn’t see her spilling blood, and so the trustee wants to be re-elected? When a drop of water falls, it fills with water.”
Innocent Reynoso He has a grocery store in front of one of the speed bumps and he says that he can’t sell anything for days because people can’t get in because of the amount of water that accumulates in the place.
