If you click on the OP’s screen name, it takes you to his/her profile. He posted this on 12-6-22 and has not been back since

Amusing-we had racoons. They used to break through the cans. I called the ASPCA and they sent a plan for a racoon proof garbage can shed.
The lady I spoke to said don't bother nothing is racoon proof. Here it seems the cayotes and crows have formed teams.
Does she take it to the driveway or ?? (Selective placement.)

Seriously though, if we had alternate days, I’d have a hard time remembering them and so would many others, so we’d have garbage bags out every day in case it was the day THIS week.
