Like this one:

Every year in America 4.5 billion pounds of carpet are thrown away.

Billion.

Take a minute and try to wrap your head around that.

A question that eventually comes up when meeting the new trainees or new volunteers or just old volunteers you’ve never had the chance to talk with before, is, “so why’d you join the Peace Corps?”

I might start responding with “carpet”.

There comes a point, if your lucky enough, to look around and see what your doing.

Now I have tile.
