Giant Window Sticker Refuses to Cooperate in Chainsmoking Investigations

Although the conclusions that we've drawn from this picture are purely based on circumstantial evidence, we, the property management of the building, feel that something has to be done about the unsightly accumulation of cigarette butts in the area in front of the toy store- and we think we know who's to blame.

Repeated questioning of the giant child by our building assistant yielded little more than a cold, steady stare, and a few strange looks from passers-by. We wanted to know: had he seen who'd done this? Could he prove that it wasn't him? Whatever he knew, it was plain that he wasn't saying.

TO HELP US SOLVE THIS MYSTERY, WE'RE ASKING FOR EVERYBODY'S HELP ON THIS ONE:

If anyone sees this child doing this again, we'd like you to sternly remind him that SMOKING SHOULD BE DONE 10 FEET FROM THE BUILDING, and preferably around the corner, so that the second-hand smoke does not disturb the patrons of Jeffrey's Toys.

Remind our friend here that it also sets a bad example for the kids who patronize the toy-store and may look up to their giant buddy in the window as a role-model.

Also, leaving the butts there in front of a retailer in our building reflects poorly on us all. If we could get this kid to just walk 10 feet to Annie Street and deposit his cigarette butts in the Smoker's Station that is expressly set up there for that purpose, I think we'd all be happier and the whole building would look better.

THANKS FOR HELPING US KEEP OUR BUILDING CLEAN AND BEAUTIFUL!!! Posted by Picasa

This kid has asked me for "smokes" on numerous occasions, and before I have time to reflect, he usually has something off-color to say. Not the model child. I think he's toying with me butt I am growing wise to his ways.
