you all know i realize how totally dependent i am to the reliability of my trash collector...the amount of trash generated by me in the course of the day is disgraceful-- i try-- and i used to be better--but i am thwarted at every turn... furthermoreindustry is not being held to any degree of homesty... i may be wrong.. but....
i used to buy a big - costco size- box of cherios.-- it contained 2 plastic pouches of cherios (which if you put one pouch 2" x 9"x11" of extruded o's into a blender you would get about 1 cup of dust/powder-- which is another whole problem but back to the packaging)the 2 pouches came in one box. then-- for whjatever reason... the company changed packaging so instead of one carton... they took 2 "normal " cartons and glued them together they say "2 pull apart boxes" .... they must have had some complaints because they then put on tht box that this method of " 2 pull apart boxes" saved the universe by requiring less material---
maybe some people believed it -- but i would like to have them prove it to me.... they glue together 2 pieces of cardboard... (2x( 9 x 11))= 198 sq inches that are totally unnecessary i believe... someone do check my math
i know the some boxes used to say it saved cardboard--i was mad when they asked me to believe that... the current already pulled apart box that i now have does not say anything... so ???? i am being asked to forget it???
if they lie about the content of the cardboard, are they lying about the cereal too??? who checks on this stuff??? do we as a cp community have a retired lowyer who can start a class action suit to finance sdp on the backs of general mills????
dawn this is a perfect job for your kids... you write to general mills and see how far your kids get
that could be fun !!!

where i started to go with this is in depth study on trash... it is a fact that a car without a trash container of some sort.. with become a mess.. likewise near my desk...... or in the t tent ... or in the gt ( giraffe tent)... which i noticed yesterday-- there was no trash so 2 soda cans and some papers ended uop left on the tables.. that is just the beginning of the end...
proper trash collection is critical to society in general ( remember new york during the strike??)

mariah-- report... there are those who say she is needier--- needing more affection... i have heard that kind of thing before...
i do know as she was riding around on my golf cart and we rode past opal, it was opal who was ready to attack !! so we might have that wrong...
just becuase opal got the worst of the last fight does not mean she was the innocent bystander when the fight started. could be she picked he fight and lost. at any rate she is all healled.... now all she has to do is grow back the hair.
