this came today
inside of a box of something else I had ordered
maybe it was added as a surprise free bonus
for being such a good customer
there were no directions
and no warranty
but I am
looking forward to using it.

That’s sort of like the seat-filler folks at the awards shows, Beth. They’re in the TV shots, but please ignore them.

Sounds like a marketing scheme. It has come to our attention that the cost of recycling and plastic peanuts it rising. Mail your empty boxes to customers to reduce costs. Just be sure to label them as empty so they don’t think we are insensitive or trying to offend them. We are studying the big picture to see if the cost of tape and labeling don’t rise too much. Thank you have a nice day. And thus progress was invented. Personally I am just glad they do not include a free stray cat with the empty box…

I love that — it’s almost (but not) like pages with the words, “This page left empty” after which, of course, it isn’t empty.

That box probably came from the White House. No sense returning it, as it would add nothing of substance to the vacuum.
