Tuesday Video: Don’t mess with Spokane?
I always love how the phrase "Don't Mess with Texas" started as a trademark of the Texas Department of Transportation to reduce litter on roadways. Their commercials seemed like fodder for a Simpsons parody but it worked! Litter decreased 72 percent in just four years after launching in 1986.
Now, we have Spokane's "Report Litter" video. It really dives into the process of how the City Of Spokane deals with refuse but it's missing - as George W. Bush couldn't say - a certain je ne sais quo. Perhaps it's the narration or the music. I think it's missing Mayor David Condon in a B-17, sneaking up on an unsuspecting litter bug. Come on Spokane, let's go big or go home!
