    I like hydrant.

    I love it that in the US, your basic fire hydrant design has changed little over more than a hundred years. A Pittsburgher transported in time from 1908 would recognize that object.

    I bet it’s older than John McCain — put together!

    (Sorry — something put Lina Lamont in my head today, and she’s taken up residence.)

    Sometimes we have squared-off hydrants in Texas.

    It’s a lovely drawing, Ms. Perry. Thank you again.

    Sheila could also tell you that something else which has also changed little in 100 years is my haircut. Any Pittsburgher from 1908 would recognize my pea-head in an instant.
