"This is why you keep it in your wallet, not your pocket."
One of the many tasks we need to do at my job is to take out all the cardboard from our daily shipments, and toss the cardboard into the specialty compactor. Usually we have a ridiculously small amount of boxes from the kiosk, whereas the store itself garners enough for 2-3 separate trips to the compactor. Since it was a rather quiet evening, and there were two of us manning the kiosk, I volunteered to help the beleagured evening-shifters at the store by taking out the recycling for them.
On my first trip out to the cardboard compactor, I discovered on the ground a peculiar, round red object inside a plastic wrapper. "Good heavens!" I thought to myself, "Someone else who was recycling cardboard dropped one of their condoms!" But as it turned out, upon closer inspection I realized it was just a red button.
Oops.
In other news, from what I've been able to glean based on the video clips, President Bush is looking at pushing a special ballistic missile system, which may in turn lead to orbital weapons in space. Is it just me, or is anyone else suddenly thinking of
Bubblegum Crisis' orbital satellites and the disturbing tendency they had to wipe out large neighbourhoods by mistake? Though if we go by previous articles found in the World Weekly News--if Dick Cheney
is in fact a robot, we could just rename him Largo!
