Now, Skier, I ain't got nothing against you, heck.... I was looking forward to some good talks with you about the mountains and such. But, you just made one ASSININE statement!

Well it takes a man to admit to his mistake. Yes i was to hard with my comment.
I just don't like seeing anyone throw stuff out the window and liiter our planet.
I'm not a tree hugger by anyway shape or form. But when someone can't find a garbage can to get rid of something, that just isn't right.
We are all repersentives of the trucking industy, be it co, o/o.
l/o which is already suffering from a poor public image.

Ehh, I just stick a wally world bag on the side of the passenger seat, throw my garbage in it, let it overfill for a while, start collecting on the dash, on the floor, on the pass seat, in the little nooks and crannies, in the sleeper, etc. Then once it needs to be taken out, get a large trash bag or 4, stuff it all in, hope I get it all, drive up to a dumpster and throw it all out from the window (usually done while bobtailing), and start the process all over .
Ok I am not THAT BAD! But I did have a bag in that spot, and when it got full I either threw it out while stepping out of my truck to do something, or actually bobtail to a dumpster and chuck it :P.
As far as someone throwing french fries out the window, professional? No, but it's french fries, who gives a flying rat! Something will come along and eat it eventually, probably a coolie carrier lease op, maybe an animal.

What does giving a damn have to do with anything?
Seriously, though, did you conduct a bird inventory? (There are guidlines on the Audubon website.)
How are the ungrateful pigeons supposed to poop on your windshield if you don't feed them first?

A driver once told me that the clean-up crew would be out of a job if he stopped littering :shock:

I lost sleep last night thinking about this. How could something as inconsequential, spur the sinister Rev to this level of outrage?
Added to the fact that I later learned no foil-faced or grease-laden wrapper was included, with the tater-toss.
I determined with great apathy, that this was merely one of Rev's shenanigans. He merely wanted to start a highly insignificant debate over "small potatoes"....trivia if you will... to bring out the absurdity, and expose a measure of mental illness here at CAD.
...or he likes being called a Jerk, in as much as I like Scratch and Sniff ads. We all have our guilty pleasures, and it is fun to stir the madness and watch the spectacle.

The guy wasn't littering, he was feeding the wildlife. :lol: Birds just love McDonald's fries. You wouldn't deprive those little birds the opportunity to raise their cholesterol would you? :P

Since there was a pouring rain last night, the fries have disappeared anyway, so the entire thing is now moot. They have now become part of someone's tire grooves, and as a result are now part of the Interstate Highway System.
