Stuff

The Bacchanalian obscenity known as unwrapping the presents on Christmas morning has once again past, and once again I wonder why why why must they package kids toys with so much plastic garbage? Why do they hate the environment? Why must the ten dollar blocks be hermetically sealed, after being tied down by one thousand plastic wires? Is there really such rampant thievery in suburban America? Are the ten dollar blocks truly in such high demand?

Next year the little twinkles are getting cardboard boxes.

Sing it, sister! I hear you! Fifty kazillion twisty ties later, the kiddo *finally* gets the goodie. I did find, however, when breaking down all the boxes and stuff for recycling, that many of the hermetically sealed plastic boxes are recyclable. Woohoo!
