One Monday a large piece of tumble weed with some trash entangled in it appeared near the trash can at the back entrance to the department. Back then tumble weed was fairly common out in Valencia. It sat there most of the week and more trash started to accumulate around it. One day I got fed up of looking at it, so I picked it up and stuffed it in the trashcan. Later that day there was a big rukus going on in the main lobby area. Some "artist" was screaming bloody murder, because his art project had been vandalized. Turns out it was that piece of tumble weed I had stuffed in the trash... Oops. Feli n Sun, 2004-08-15 at 06:24, Jeffery Smith wrote: > That sort of thing annoys me.
