Chuck
Perkins
Chuck
gets
special
mention
because
he
has
contributed
an
extraordinary
amount
of
foil
to
the
ball
on
several
occasions.
This
page
describes
the
most
recent
shipment.
I
did
not
photograph
his
first
shipment,
but
it
is
described
in
the
contributons
list.
The
other
day,
I
answered
my
doorbell
to
find
the
UPS
carrier
bearing
a
largish
box
which
was
marked
"The
Ball"
and
"Foil
Ball".
I
opened
the
box
and
found
that
it
was
filled
quite
full
with
pink
bubble
wrap.
It
wasn't
entirely
bubble
wrap,
though,
as
I
found
this
plastic
food
storage
container
crammed
full
of
foil.
On
the
top
was
a
layer
containing
some
Easter
foil
(visible
on
the
left),
including
two
Cadbury
Creme
Egg
wrappers.
There
was
also
foil
from
quite
a
few
candy
bars,
some
Kit-Kats,
and
the
foil
from
some
cigarette
packs.
Below
that
layer,
there
were
six
neat
stacks
of
wrappers.
Clockwise
from
the
upper-left,
they
are
Peanut
Butter
Cups,
Andes
Mints,
Peppermint
Patties
(plain,
Christmas,
Easter,
and
Halloween
colors),
Gum,
Some
small
Easter
candy
(probably
egg
shaped),
and
Kisses/Hugs.
Thank
you,
Chuck,
for
your
wonderful
contributions
to
the
ball.
