got my hands on a rather large number of planning committee blue ribbons with built-in adhesive strips to adhere to your name tag at the convention or meeting or large event that required a planning committee to plan. So as I walk around and mingle and schmooze you’ll clearly see my name MATT PINTER and that I’m obviously a proud member of the planning committee.
In this package there are several hundred perhaps a thousand of these blue ribbons. Why would I buy it? You might ask. Well I bought it because it was there. Because it was 50 cents. Because I could take them out of context and put them back in some how some where some time.
These ribbons have been sitting here for a few weeks, waiting for me to deploy them in a new and interesting way. But a little while back I gave about 25% of them to 22 Heather and said “what would you do with a bunch of planning committee blue ribbons?”
Several days later Heather presented me with a little cabin in the woods down by the river made with cardboard and a healthy heaping helping of planning committee blue ribbons, as you can see in the photo above.
