@mountainman - that was pretty metal. I like it

@mountainman - But it continues to be water. And its fancy can is still waste. Just drink from the tab. That would actually help.

@mountainman - Chill out, Captain Planet. Didn't know you'd get sensitive over your carbon footprint. I wasn't trying to preach, just telling you that Liquid Death is still a company that sells you a product you already have literally coming out of your walls at home, but with a fancy brand. It may be that aluminum is better than plastic, but obviously no waste at all is still better. And water is absolutely something you could go zero waste on.

@mountainman - they are pretty cool people. I cross paths with various people from there often for work stuff.

Funny story, but Mike got the idea from Warped Tour many years ago. The year prior the tour was sponsored by Jones soda and water was impossible to find. The next year Monster was the sponsor and the deal was they had to provide water not just energy drink so they put water in their cans (i worked both years of this tour). Mike was just a fan in the audience, but saw the water in a can and years later it inspired part of the company. The rest ad they say is history.

@MyCoolYoung - same with paper product. My general waste bin just doesn't fill that quickly anymore (since I also have to seperate bio/organic stuff too)

@mountainman - noooo... I didn't know that. I'll try my beat

@StSteven - ay! Man, our recycling fill up so fast, and they only come get it every other week, and when a holiday fall on a Monday rather than come get it the next say, they wait until the next cycle.

@MyCoolYoung - Yeah! Same here (with the every other week thing). Sucks. I end up having to either put my recycling overflow in the regular garbage bin (which I hate to do) or having to cart it over to my in-laws' place and use their bin (because they don't really recycle (they're from China and according to my wife recycling is not a big thing over there)). Either way, I definitely end up filling my recycle bin faster than my regular one, especially if I'm being a good boy and paying attention to the little symbols on the bottom of the plastic containers to see what can be recycled and what can't.

I will say this however (FWIW): I didn't grow up in a recycling family (that wasn't really a big deal back in the 80's). But I'm pretty attuned to it now, and I will make sure that my daughters (3 & 6) pick up the habit when they get older. I mean, it's so simple: you have 2 bins side by side. Just put the recycle stuff in the recycle bin and everything else in the other bin. What the waster management folks do with it afterward is out of your hands, but at least you did your part.

That way I don't feel guilty at all when Denis Leary and I are gonna get ourselves a 1967 Cadillac Eldorado convertible, hot pink with whale skin hubcaps and all leather cow interior and big brown baby seal eyes for head lights, and we're gonna drive in that baby at 115 miles per hour gettin' one mile per gallon, sucking down Quarter Pounder cheeseburgers from McDonald's in the old fashioned non-biodegradable styrofoam containers and when we're done sucking down those greaseball burgers we're gonna toss the styrofoam containers right out the side and there ain't a goddamn thing anybody can do about it You know why? Because we've got the bomb, that's why. Two words: nuclear f**king weapons, okay?

Whoa, whoa, whoa, I got a little off-track there. Anyhow, yea go recycling!
