What should we collect?
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Have you ever driven past the American Legion Post 105 log cabin in Fayetteville and noticed what looks like an old mailbox?
I believe it’s red, white and blue and looks a bit weathered. If you’ve taken a good look at it, it’s actually a collection box for worn out flags.
What a great idea. I mean, if I had an old worn out flag, it just wouldn’t seem right to throw it in the trash can. That sort of receptacle just seems like a respectable place to put something like a flag.
Driving by that mailbox on a regular basis gave me something to ponder. If I was in charge of putting up a public collection box, what kind of used, worn out or broken stuff would I use it for?
Well, since I seem to have what appears to be a convoy of broken down printers here in my office, I think a collection box for something like that would serve me well. I know it’s not a patriotic sort of item, like the flag, but I think there are plenty of people like me with dead printers just taking up valuable space.
So if you were in charge of erecting a collection box, what would be in your stuff of choice?
