More fun than Mayonnaise... or at least equally fun... OK, it's less fun, but you're still reading...
riding to work today, an attractive well-to-do girl sat next to me and pulled out a juice box. (capri sun, the ritzy kind). i'd usually use sugary-products-early-in-the-morning as an easy introduction into my world, but juice boxes make me nervous. i was a blower. the juice box quickly filled with air and my t-shirt quickly filled with stainable red #40. i worried for two stops about whether she would squeeze juice on me.
we were sitting on the sideways seat, facing the door-side of the bus, like i like. without so much as looking behind her, she threw the empty wrapper behind her.... exited the bus and walked past a garbage can. if i already wasn't 2 busses late, i was going to bolt out the bus door carrying the juice box screaming, "wooooops! you accidently forgot this. here you go. you dropped it as you were leaving.... almost lost it forever.... no need to thank me."
i once watched a neighbor pull out of her driveway, litter a few bottles in the middle of the street and drive off. i picked up all the trash and left it in her mailbox.
the garbage can is a pretty simple invention.

We'll fill our cars with garbage waiting until until a plastic bag arrives there too in which to fill and place in an appropriate disposal site, to not throw it on the street. Weird that sense of civility, eh? IMHO people who spit their chewing gum out onto the sidewalk are the worst. Atleast stick it under the table....
