Still not back commuting yet, but I try and ride as much as I can to recondition. Plus I finally got my fixie done. Anyway, as I was riding yesterday this struck me as rather strange. I won't make a quiz out of it, because the shot isn't real clear. In front of the garbage cans, with the blue writing on it is a bag of ice. Who throws away a bag of ice? I mean, look at all the snow on the ground. Wouldn't it be easier the just chuck it on the lawn? What difference would it make? Who would notice? Especially since we are getting another 8 inches of snow right now.

I know it's a free country and all... and that ice clogging up our landfills isn't a major problem. Okay, it is now. But it's only temporary. "Honey, the ice has gone bad. Could you please take it out cause it's trash day tomorrow." Man, that guy has got to put his foot down. Some one had to walk all the way to the curb with it.

Well, I guess they saw me take the photograph cause when I rode back about 20 minutes later the bag wasn't there. And it wasn't in any of the recycling bins either thank God. I hope someone didn't garbage pick that bag of ice. "Hey honey, that's a perfectly good bag of ice that they're throwing away. Let's snag it before someone else does."
