I only found out because Ralph Wiggum's imaginary friend, Mr. Rum-ta-Tum, showed him what was behind the Big Hedge. This isn't the first time Mr. Rum-ta-Tum has drawn our attention to wasteful municipal fiscal policy. Last year, this teddy bear drum major (who floats several feet above the ground) led Ralph and a pretend marching band of one hundred high-stepping trumpeters on a merry parade to Springfield Industrial Park. It was later discovered that the Park's construction contract was awarded through a non-competitive, rigged bid. Thank you, Mr. Rum-ta-Tum!"
