How many are hopeless scroungers who will stop on garbage day and grab
something someone's put to the curb?

I do it. Got a VERY NICE pair of graphite fishing rods that cost about $125
each one day. Mama musta been ****ed at Papa, or the old boyfriend moved
out. Coupla damn fine poles.

I could go on for about 3,000 words, and my wife sinks into her seat when I
do it, but she doesn't mind when I use the item around the house, or if it
saved a few bucks.

.............. errrrrrr, that is if I EVER get around to using said item
...........

I actually love to go cruising on trash day, go to local dump spots, and
watch commercial and manufacturing dumpsters.
