Lessons from Musical Trucks

So, there are many trucks driving the streets here in China that play music as they go... they actually sound kind of like ice cream trucks. Some of them water the trees on the side of the roads. Some of them pick up trash. And now I know that the one playing "London Bridge is Falling Down" cleans the streets by shooting water out of its sides. Let's just say that I learned this the hard way and was hit with muddy water about an hour before a meeting today. Luckily, I was near our apartment and able to change clothes and wash off before the meeting! Oh, well... Now we know.
