New Recycle cans in the neighborhood

[camarocane]

If you don't like it, just stop recycling... no big deal.

and Jax Native, did someone kick your dog and take a box full of ballpoints? did the post really piss you off that much? What is white maleness and is it different from black maleness? are you feeling better this morning?

I am an old, white, upbeat, happy individual deeply involved in my community of Riverside and ready to laugh at my own idiosyncrasies.  Painting the lid of my recycle bin was petty fun and a minor protest against City bureaucracy.  Nothing serious.

I've actually swapped the small bin they gave me at first, the one that I painted, with one of the larger bins since we recycle a lot, and haven't even bothered to paint the top of the new one.  Made my point with Solid Waste the first time.

Laugh with me at the silliness.

Wait, people are complaining about the yellow lids?  I guess I'm weird because I complain about the people in my neighborhood who use the yellow recycle bins for their trash and the trash bins for their recyclables.

I wonder, if their is a correlation between the people who do not like the yellow lids to the people who did not like the use of palm trees in Shad Kahn's renderings for the Shipyards?

(Palm Trees? Shipyards water renderings were certifiably fake- just goes to show the role and effect of Visual Image, Landscape....)

Was within Leon county last week and the area I was in was obviously Giant Matching Bin Placement Day; one there,and there,and there,and.....yea,over there. No "Safety Yellow" in sight.

At this point,I might just smother the remaining vestiges of COJ supplied container Yeller over in...skip Avondale Green in favor of Leon Hue.
As if Jacksonville "Woke Up". An act of Civil Obedience. Come arrest me! Attach Lien! We'll have a grand Press Conference that will be sure to go Recycle Viral. Carl Hiaasen probably curious.We'll get the COJ General Counsel office to render an opinion as to Assigned Unit use and disposition legalities, fines.  I'll role my multi color Bin to the curbside of a dilapidated Mayor Delaney/Better Jacksonville era re-paved street, fan out over the street and mark obvious decline/patch in safety yellow.Probably easily morph to discussion of latest neighborhood assault location,right there in the midst of Safety Yellow discussion. Yep,this discussion can go Plaid. No Sir!-we did not see you toying with your COJ Can! Prepare To Prepare! Jam the Can Chip radar!   Canballs! Comb the streets for altered lids!

On a more meaningful note,Thank You to the City of Jacksonville for these efforts at revision and upgrade.Lot's of work there. We as citizens,even tax payers might not know of the efforts,details and plain hard work.Duval is not alone in the revision.

The manufacturer that won the Bid thanks all too. (Perhaps they had a bunch of "Safety Yellow" lids,$$$$ saving Deal... )

Be glad you have a new bin. I'm still taping together my old blue ones
