Regarding Waste Management's Proposed 40' Mini-Berm

by Bob Zahniser

Well, as I look around I'm reminded of how many majestic mountains (Mt. St Helens, Mt. Hood, Mt. Ranier...) are visible nearby -  while McMinnville has nothing. That's right, nothing. A 40 foot berm isn't nearly high enough. Let Waste Management raise it even higher so people hundreds of miles away can look upon Mt. Trashmore and forever associate McMinnville with a mountain - of garbage.

I suggest we start a new movement called "Trash McMinnville" and demand an ever-rising berm. Let the current addition (the lower 40) be just the start of our rise.

TRASH MCMINNVILLE! 

In place of Turkeyrama we could have Garbage Days - dump truck races, 'Guess the Smell' games, street performers juggling garbage and talking trash...

TRASH MCMINNVILLE!

We could even come up with a new slogan like "Follow your nose to McMinnville, America's Dump."

During Garbage Days the Gallery Theater could do special performances of 'Cyrano de Bergerac' and Third Street Pizza could run continuous showings of Steve Martin's 'Roxanne'.

I strongly suspect the Waste Management would be more than willing to make this proposal a reality.

If you think this is a GREAT IDEA, contact everyone you know and tell them we need their help to TRASH MCMINNVILLE!!!
