Anyone who’s spent time in Iraq will recognize this:
Now that summer heat is arriving, everyone goes through a couple of these a day. Uses I have seen for empty water bottles:
- Cut down, as scoops for laundry detergent
- As bumpers for hand-operated steel automobile barriers
- Filled with sand, as counterweights for improvised self-closing doors
- As floats for the ropes separating lanes in a swimming pool
- With holes punched in the cap, to spray water on the short-order grill
- Full of water, in shrink-wrapped packs of 12, as temporary furniture
