JENGA!

    For the last month or so, when in Troy, I've noticed a white wall being built behind the Stewart's at 10th and Hoosick Street. I wondered why the wall was being built. Sonic is at the top of the quite steep hill behind Stewart's. Driving past, it looked as if the wall was being built of tiles.
    Today, I drove past, and the whole of the construction has tumbled down the hill. It looks as if some of the blocks either hit or narrowly missed the back side of the Stewart's building. And now that they're down and visible, each block appears to be about half the size of an automobile. It looks as if the base for the construction was a pile of sand, but maybe that's just the resulting avalanche.
    Just don't call it a retaining wall.
