How many Telephone Books does one need?

No, wait! I did get one today...or maybe this is one of your phone books... I think I better drop it off at some one's house that didn't get one...hmmm...I'm sure you've got room in front of your house...

Oh, don't trouble yourself. Tell me where you live and I"ll pick it up. Maybe if I get enough of them I can make a patio out of them. Even if I don't get enough from the phone companies I am sure some people may be nice enough to give up theirs. Then I would be able to make a "Big" patio!!!!

No sweat, I've got "this secret thing" I'm going to do with all the extra phone books in the area. I'll be there in the morning, to collect them all. Well, maybe, not tomorrow... ya know, there's this Egyptian thing, and Charlie Sheen, and, ya know, the Super Bowl, and, well, I'll pick them up next week... all of them... I've got this secret thing...you can count on me...

I only use the one with the BIGGEST PRINT! The other 4 or 5 that I get with the itty bitty print hit the recycle bin.

The small ones with the itty bitty print I have trouble reading with my reading glasses on. Or maybe I just need stronger reading glasses. I can never find what I am looking for in them anyway. Is there a place to drop off old books (since there are so many) to be recycled instead of throwing them in the trash?

I also noticed I bought some cough medicine yesterday and it was a big box which I thought was a big bottle. When I opened it, to my surprise it was a small bottle in this big box with all this wasted packaging. Companies need to stop putting small things in big boxes with just empty space. I guess that is another discussion altogether though. It just made me think of the waste with the phone books. Have a good one everybody.

Bunches of Phone Books?

Couldn't find the original post, but someone was questioning the sanity of the 400 phone books we receive here. Found this article and thought it applied:
