Day 3 of the big fill-a-bag challenge. Starting at 4:00 pm and ending at 4:30 pm, the challenge is to stop whatever you are doing and just find things to donate to charity or to toss out for the next trash pickup. Let me try to tell Big Frank’s story, broken down into 10–word-sentences…

  1. Frankie needs a new home. He might be worth something.
  2. Born in 1992, he was part of Fisher-Price Playskool.
  3. Found and purchased at yard sale, 1998. Fell in love.
  4. Alan paid $5. Bought it to cheer his ailing dad.
  5. Dad Larry loved Frankie. Displayed him proudly in hospital window.
  6. Dad Larry died October 1998. Frankie needs a new home.
