Another 1/2" of paper was shredded and added to the trash bag this morning, after an interesting tour through knee replacement documents and past tax protests folders.

A canvas tote bag is loaded with about 20 pounds of e-waste, the latest addition is the broken off HD antenna from last week. I have an event to attend tomorrow that will take me to the library where there is a large bin for such materials (I used to be the employee to call and have it emptied when it was full).

The new antenna has a sturdy plastic base with holes so that the steel pipe that supports the antenna can be adjusted to vertical whether installed on a vertical wall or flat or sloped roof. One screw goes through and it pivots to the correct position then a second screw is inserted through one in a row of holes to anchor the best position. I had the first screw in and pushed the pole out of the way but at one point it tipped forward and delivered a robust clunk on my cheekbone. This morning I see I have a 1/4" round dark bruise.
