Retirement Package

Wow! It has almost been a year since Henry retired. Last year, before he retired, we thought it would be appropriate to wrap up his cube like a package. If you don't know why its appropriate, oh well...

Here is a photo of us building Henry's "retirement package." We rigged a printer paper box up so that it could hold peanuts inside. When the top of the "package" was opened, it appeared as if we filled the entire cube with shipping peanuts. We also filled his overead compartments with peanuts...a feat of engineering to say the least. Think about it...How do you get the peanuts in there and fill the overhead compartment completely without them splilling all over the place?...that is, until the intended time when Henry was supposed to open the overhead compartments and be subjected to a landslide of peanuts! We won't reveal our secret.

Here is the final product.

I sit in this cube now and, one year later, I am still cleaning up shipping peanuts!
