The dumpster of dreams.

So in my travels a dumpster has turned up. The first day it was fairly uninteresting, full of branches. An ordinary dumpster for sure. The next day as I passed I noticed an Old Navy bag in there. Inside were what I would swear were two completely brand new shirts. They were clean and folded and unmarred in any way. Yes, I know you're thinking it. I didn't take that bag because the size was obviously wrong. I snapped a picture and went on my way, certain those fine shirts would be devoured by a passing college student.

The next day brought two surprises. One, the shirts remained. Two, they had been joined by a set of golf clubs. I swear I am not making this up. It was a worn golf caddy, with what seemed to be a set of still-workable clubs. I was amused, to say the least, but figured 'Surely this is the end of it, maybe these clubs are rusted and a cat peed on those shirts'. Off I went.

The next day I find this.



An entire Mac G3 computer.

Now, I admit this one looks pretty beaten up, and it is an older mac for sure, but it made me really think.

I envy the people who have trash like this.

It certainly does make it seem like they live a pretty decadent lifestyle...either that or someone was caught cheating and the other has been systematically tossing their things.

How scandalous! That's a much more fun thing to imagine than wasteful people.

Mrs. Roberston worried about her husband, Tom. He had gone over to Chad's house again to play poker, and once more he was late coming home.

She didn't even know you could play poker with only two people.
