When Fed-Ex delivered my package today, I opened it up, to my dismay....
cardboard, paper, stuffing, galore, Styrofoam nuggets all over the floor!
There was plastic bubble, and cellophane wrap, it took a broom to clear the trash!
I dug around to look inside, the "Fort Knox" seal, was no surprise!
A brand new game, it's time for fun, but where's the dad-gum garbage can?
I need a battery to play my game, the one they sent is dead already!
A quick time out, ......well that's a bother....a trip to Wal Mart to buy another!
Stopped at Starbuck's along the way, tossed my cup...that's two, today
I grocery shopped, while at the store, filled plastic bags, then out the door!
Filled the trash....once more today, and back to Wal Mart...where I will pay
for plastic bags to line the can.....cause we fill them up as fast as we can!
I've heard going 'Green'...is the only way.....but UPS is on the way !
