A tin can with an open top?

It's a more delicate/feminine way of opening those pesky cans.

It's the only way they do anything themselves. There is very little litter where I live, and no one is making anyone pick up after themselves. It's just something that isn't done. Even when I worked in the parks, there was very little litter. Just overflowing trash cans after the long weekends, but it was all around the trash cans. I wish I knew how to package that and ship it back east for you, but alas, I don't. tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-21434931774530881102015-07-28T11:05:52.891-04:002015-07-28T11:05:52.891-04:00tryanmax, Plus, they are cheaper if they break.

Littering here is shockingly commonplace, but recycling is mandatory. I remember during those golden Giuliani days, a caller to his weekly radio show demanded to know what he was going to do about all of the litter; his response "Well, first of all, people need to stop being such pigs!". I did a spit-take...and that's why I like Rudy.BevfromNYChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14953050916932306270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-88323071514187523042015-07-28T09:36:22.705-04:002015-07-28T09:36:22.705-04:00I figured the same as Bob said, though I've ne...I figured the same as Bob said, though I've never seen one like this. I must live in a more literate area. Our signs simply read: "NO LITTERING $500 FINE" <br /><br />I don't know anyone who has been fined for littering. My understanding is that the statute is primarily used against unsecured loads that have fallen off trucks/trailers, since about the only way to get caught littering is when you're picking it back up. <br /><br />Of course, if your half-drank ICEE lands on the windshield of a state patrol, that's another matter...tryanmaxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09881154741574720094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6251675227852122352.post-57293173496647293132015-07-28T07:56:13.058-04:002015-07-28T07:56:13.058-04:00Oh, I thought that it meant no driving with open c...Oh, I thought that it meant no driving with open cans...or no eating while driving.
