• Shopping Cart Series: Trees Fell, Trapped Me

    When I heard that there was a major storm headed our way, I got scared for all of us stuff so mercilessly left stored outdoors. You can’t see it in this picture, but my friend, Kid Tricycle, got mangled under one of those trees. On the other side of me, Rusty (the old rusted propane tank), got spared by the tree. Thank goodness for that, otherwise, we would have all been blown to smithereens.

    Cleanup is happening where trees fell on houses, but I guess no one cares about blocked streets and trapped shopping carts. Forget leaning trees, we’re talkin’ the Fallen Tower of Pisa, here!

    So, if anyone out there feels something for little Baby Blue, come on over and rescue me by Avenue U and East 55 Street. As far as I know, my wheels are still working. You can just put Kid Tricycle in my cart and roll us out of here.

      Hey! Don't give up the shopping cart series! It adds a little bit of sunshine to an otherwise dull and dreary day at the office for me at least.

      That tree needs medical attention as well. Good thing you brought this to our attention.

      The ongoing plight of the American Shopping Cart has become a staple of my blog reading. The reports are light and fluffy adding a much-needed life to the otherwise depressing news. Don't let it end.
