Default can't pass up usefull trash

That reminded me of something my wife told me. I've been working on a
canopy bed for my daughter, pretty little hearts in the headboard and all...
With all the crap (and flammable crap at that) in the garage, I generally
weld n grind in the driveway, so project pieces are at times visible from
the street, or on the side of the house. Round bulk collection time some
lady ran the bell to ask my wife if we were putting the bed out for
collection. I'm not sure if that was a complement or insult!

And come to think of it, one time I was cleaning to get to the welder and
someone asked if he could still look knowing we were closing. HuH? That
sale is down the block. The look on his face as he glanced around again was
"maybe, but it SHOULD be here"!!

My ex-mother-in-law was once a garage sale freak. Addicted to garage

sales.

One day, she stopped at a garage where the door was open, and it was full

of
treasures. She was walking through it when the owner came out and asked
something like - what the f*** do you think you are doing?

Isn't this a garage sale?

No, now get the f*** out of here!

I think that is when she went for help. ;-)
