Plastic Bag Still Up In Tree

BOISE, ID– Employees at Boise Mutual Insurance reported Monday that the red plastic shopping bag they first noticed Dec. 8 is still ensnared in the upper branches of a tree outside their workplace. “Well I’ll be–the darn thing is still up there,” payroll secretary Barb Weicherle said. “I really thought this weekend’s gusts would have blown it out.” Office manager Paul Probert was equally surprised, saying, “Son of a gun. It’s still there.”
