Once upon a time in the Land of Hyster the sisters were in a quandry. Every where they turned, they were overrun with supplies. They tripped every time they turned around in their homes. Boxes piled under sinks. Boxes stored under beds. Boxes stashed under car seats. Tiny boxes. Big Boxes. Medium boxes. Their homes were piled high and deep with supplies. "Oh my!" they shrieked, "Whatever will we do with all these supplies we no longer need?"
Sending a message to the king, they asked for his help. Thinking long and hard for days, the king finally had an answer. Sending a messenger with the proclamation, the hyster sister gathered at the door of the castle to await the answer. "Hear ye, Hear ye! By proclamation of the King, you will all recycle!"
Confused, the hyster sisters had no idea what the king's answer meant. "I wrap up all my newspapers, tie them in a bundle and take them to the paper plant," said one sister. "I gather all the glass and tin cans and take them to the factories," said another. "I throw out all the food scraps into my garden," said a third. Scratching their heads and wondering how they could recycle their no longer needed supplies, they headed back to their homes.
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she headed out to the garden. Knee pads!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she headed out to exercise. Forehead sweatbands!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she decorated her Christmas tree. Ornaments!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she sewed them together. A snuggly quilt!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she buffed her floor. Dusting pads!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she bandaged her child's knee. Bandaids!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she set her table. Coasters!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she shuffled through the house. Bedroom slippers!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she glued them into a tube. Candle holders!
"Ah ha!" remarked one hyster sister as she wrapped them up and sent them with a sympathy card to a friend who didn't live in the Land of Hyster.
All over the kingdom, the hyster sisters set to work recycling. Pool liners, sachets, elbow pads for hockey, handi-wipes for spills.
The king was so pleased to see his proclamation give good results. Heloise added a column in the newspaper. Martha Stewart sent awards to the Land of Hyster. The Kingdom of Hyster was listed in "Who's Who in Recycling". It was a great day.
And they all lived happily ever after and were hormonally balanced forever. The End.
