Smoke Alarm

I'm kind of jealous of the life I'm supposedly leading.
-Zach Braff

In Bircii there are no "community beautification projects", there are no convenient trash cans placed along high-traffic areas. There are no nice garbage men who come along with big trucks and dispose of waste. Therefore everywhere you look there is trash. This fact shocked me at first, but now after living here for three months I hardly notice. But, there is still one thing that I cannot quite get over. You see, in Bircii there are no burning ordinances.

None.

This poses an interesting scenario that has happened quite a few times recently. I affectionately call it the "choke and gag routine."
