Bundle on the Doorstep

Nope, not a baby.

So I'm going for coffee from the shop next to my workplace this morning and notice something odd on the drug store's sidewalk--a Winnie the Pooh hamper in a, shall we say, heavily used state (stained, hole in the bottom, etc.). I give it a cursory look and then head into my store to see if anyone knows what it's all about.

"It's got porn tapes in it," is the reply.

"What?!" I ask. "Who would put porn tapes in a ratty Pooh bear hamper and leave them in front of the store?"

Well, there were no answers forthcoming but it was pretty damned funny. I went next door for the coffees for my mom and I and couldn't help but open the hamper on my way out. Sure enough, three cassette tapes were inside. I nudged one but felt very self-conscious looking at this outside so left the mess go. Quite an interesting encounter so early on my day off. I can only wonder what's next?
