Stop Flushing!

I wish all you Yankees would stop flushing your toilets so much. The Mississippi River is very high this spring. This picture shows you how high the river is. This photo has terrible color but beyond that look how much higher the ship is than the cars in the parking lot. This isn't a Photoshop trick. The levee system allows the water level of the river to be higher than the adjacent ground. The result is that ships will appear to be floating on land.
