I've lost track of the number of times we've flattened cardboard, bundled it, and put it out on the curb to be recycled... only to see the trash men pick it up! In these cases, it's been more cardboard than we can reasonably cut up and fit into a bin. Is there something else we should be doing with this type of recycling? It's really annoying to have gone to the extra effort to neatly bundle this all up only to see it thrown away!

Jim McGaw

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
