A local billboard informs a driver by that if they don't "get your butt off of my lawn" the fine will be $500. The billboard is probably one of the better advertisements I've seen from the Green Team, which is the moniker of the Recycling Division of Mahoning County. I am not sure why they decided to take a less professional route and declare themselves a team. I guess part of it may have been so that Tim Berlekamp can call himself coach. A position that I am unaware of him holding otherwise. In any event, the billboard advertisements are a step up from some of the other ads I've seen from environmentalists.
Actually, my guess is that it goes with the general consensus of the recycling community to promote themselves to children, because the adults are too selfish to stop their garbage habits. I personally think this is shortsighted because it makes the recycling movement of America seem childish, and trash the grown-up thing to do. Then again, what do I know?
In any event, one hot summer day when the humidity was so thick that sex was in the air after you got past the pollution, I had run out of time before work to shower. I wore the Midori shirt to work. I sweated like Causey. Donor Jim, who happened to have a six-pack of bottled water and offered Donor Dan and I a bottle. Dan accepted the bottle. I refused, since I prefer tap water to bottled. Donor Jim then decides to give me a Green Team shirt to wear that day and in the future. I ended up not wearing the shirt that day at work. Perhaps I should have worn the shirt, for I ended up getting in a conversation with a custodian who asked me what Midori was, and I somehow obligated myself to get them something for Christmas. I did not buy them anything for that Christmas or any thereafter.
Donor Dan was able to provide me with an additional Green Team shirt. I thanked him for it. Now the Green Team ranks with Country Manor and Nokia/Cingular to form the "triple doubles".
Not Herb, donors of the Cleveland Cobras/Not Herb soccer jersey, called their fan club the Green Team.
