Cleaning house for a new Congress
Almost nothing says Inauguration Day is almost here more than recycling bins stuffed full (yes, they have Blue Boxes in Patria) and shredders working overtime, as members of the soon to be toast Congress - not only those who are retiring or were defeated for re-election - clean out years (and in some cases, decades) of accumulated paper that no longer serves their needs or Patria's expansive growth into Positive Possibilities.
A stack of high school notebooks from the failed, brutal 40th Congress (1974-1978) are offered at Amma's feet before being chucked into the recycling bin for collection on June 29. Note the Wacky Packages on the Duo-tang on the left. On the eleventh grade physics notebook on the right, check out the attempt to draw Montreal Expos and 1976 Olympic logos. These notebooks were apparently saved "for reference", but weren't consulted much over the past 30+ years.
