There Should Be A Law
Every weekend, in every town in America there is a yard or
garage sale....While some people advertise their "event" in
a local paper, most advertising is done with colored 8"x12"
paper stapled, tied, or taped to a pole at the local street corner....
Sign pole, electric pole, wooden, steel, plastic....It does not
matter....The advertisement of this "great" event is affixed
to it.....
Very few people never see them being "put up" but everyone
notices that they are never taken down.....Days after the
"event" the paper signs are blowing in the wind held on to
the pole by the last remaining means of securement......
There should be a law that the material of these signs
be biodegradable.....Then when it rains or blows off it will
enrich the earth on which it falls......Just a thought....Pumps
