Wiki, Wild Stuff

WE'RE PUTTING on our hardhats for today's random spin of the Wikipedia wheel. A shallow foundation is a type of building foundation, we learn, "which tranfers building loads to the earth very near the surface, rather than to a subsurface layer or a range of depths as does a deep foundation." Something good to keep in mind the next time you build you own house or office building. Me, I thought a shallow foundation was an organization that funded insignificant things. (Pause for rim shot.)

So much shallowness.

It's pathetic, isn't it?
