Targhetto Parking Lot Ducks

Lake & Minnehaha Target parking lot.

i really, REALLY hope these Mallards are just resting, and that that hoodie is NOT their nest.

unintentional flag desecration

PATRIOTIC CUSTOMS

§176. Respect for flag

...

(i) The flag should never be used for advertising purposes in any manner whatsoever. It should not be embroidered on such articles as cushions or handkerchiefs and the like, printed or otherwise impressed on paper napkins or boxes or anything that is designed for temporary use and discard...

target carts on the loose

looks like at least SOME people have figured out how to circumvent the wheel-locking of the carts from the lake/hiawatha target (aka targhetto), since the above were parked near the north entry to the lake/hiawatha lrt stop.

$2.50 seizure inducers

sure they look like loads of fun, but i can think of many potential probs with these...

rock turtle and target barf

rock that's painted to look like a turtle in slp on the bike path in the "cobblecrest neighborhood":

barf by the bike rack at the target in slp by 169:

kinda weird, cuz i was eating a banana when i snapped this, and i knew somebody who hates bananas cuz they reminded her of the barf cover-up stuff from her old school.
