Shredding It

I picked up the phone because I needed answers about the cardboard shredder. Packaging used to be simple for my farm. Baskets, then burlap, paper then plastic, but ultimately, from us, the manufacturer, little packaging was required. We still send potatoes in paper sacks, but we can also now send it in bottles, as Vodka, to martini makers all over the Empire State. With this fragile opportunity, comes packaging. The cardboard shredder I am after doesn’t shred cardboard to reduce and destroy it, but rather it handily perforates three-ply boxes, turning pieces into packing material hassle free.

In the Year 2025

2025 has already mugged me, repeatedly. I look forward to years that end in a zero or a five. They feel auspicious. One of my life’s numerical highlights was to have my high school graduation land on an ’0 year. Many of us partied extra hard at the turn of the millennium. After all, it was a ’000. I associate auspicious with superlatives like “great!” And so, despite all the signs, I was feeling hopeful, looking forward to 2025. I should have been looking backward for the kick in the butt. Let’s start with the fires ravaging my native Southern ... by Carlos Sandoval
