Hello friends. This is not intended towards any of you good people. But I've just got to get this off my chest. (Maybe this should be a letter-to-the-editor in the newspaper). Like most TH'ers I curse the day that pull-tabs were invented. But with years of experience I usually know one when I hear one, much like most of you I suppose. I don't blame the soul that invented them, how could he or she have known the far reaching effect it would have on us. Who I do blame though (and wish I could ring there necks) is the knot-heads that throw them on the ground. The attached pull-tab was invented because "Bubba" kept throwing the old ring types in the lake and killing the fish. This seemed like a good idea, keep it on the can. Well now "Bubba" pulls it off, (sometimes drops it in the can while drinking?), or throws it down. And how many screw caps or old crown caps have you found that are folded in half? Is this some show of macho strength? Just leave it on the can, (and don't throw the can on the ground either). If you just gotta' pull it off or bend that cap put it in your pocket or in the trash receptacle. Maybe when my grandkids are old enough to start TH'ing the rest of us responsible citizens will have cleaned out most of the junk from our parks and beaches by then. Amen.
