My daughter is visiting a friend and his wife in Atlanta. She just posted this on Facebook.

I would not view that as a good idea.

Maybe they will come out in a parallel universe. That would be cool.

No other context?
Given no other context I'd have to trust my daughter. Tell her to keep her power dry. But then my daughter is a tough bitch.

I'd respond by reminding her not to spill her beer.

I did that once and I haven't been seen since.

I'd respond by reminding her not to spill her beer. That shouldn't be a problem if she follows the standard protocol for such projects: "Here, hold my beer while I. . . ." |

To complicate things, they're not big dogs like Lassie. They're little yappy kick-dogs. No way they're going to go tell the sheriff about the kids trapped down the culvert.

Those evil clowns eat yippy dogs as snacks. They like the dogs hot and, being clowns, with ketchup. Only clowns would eat hot dogs with ketchup.

We had a long culvert that went under a highway, that we used to go through as kids, because there was a stream and forest on the other side.
I don't think I ever told my mother about that.

Did her EMT training include Confined Space Entry?

Did her EMT training include Confined Space Entry? No, but as a tiny firefighter she's the one who gets sent into attics and crawlspaces. |

I guess I'm not a very good parent. My response was, "How else are you going to find out where it goes?"

Put a "Go" camera on a yappy dog and send his ass through. Why wouldn't you just send the dog through facing forward? |

There was (and still is, I assume) a natural prairie behind the high school in Ames where I grew up. In biology we were sent to the prairie, told to stake our a certain area and study the place. Instead a buddy and I found a culvert large enough to stand upright in so that's where we went. During class and after school. The place when on forever, with lots of hands on knees options which we skipped, but did eventually discover its end, which led to a stream, but was closed off with rebar so our only choice was to return to our point of entrance.
We learned two things. We learned that culverts are damp dark and pretty boring places without a whole lot going on. We also learned that the whole thing pissed off our biology teacher, and he made us go back in there to study the flora and fauna, and to report on it.
