Every so often, upon arriving home, I find abandoned bags on my doorstep. I know why they are there. The shrunken, outgrown, stained, and gifted gems are tshirts hoping to be given new life, remade into some Pretty Stinkin' Green wearable art.
The mystery is who gave up the treasures. Who snuck over and quietly left the noteless bundles? This is where a sharp mind comes into play. By now I have learned what clues to look for.
- The bag: Does the packaging tell me anything? Of course, an American Eagle, Ambercrombie or Pac Sun bag points to a family with teenagers, whereas, a Gymboree bag, well, you get the picture.
- Contents: This is broken down into several categories: gender, size, logos.
- Total package: an overview of all the evidence is the only way to solve the
crimethoughtful gesture.
For now this particular bag remains a mystery. I do have my suspicions. It is time to pull out some unrelieved techniques.
In the mean time THANK YOU. You know who you are.
