    Nice finds just now at my dumpster......

    A ten-speed bike
    A very nice coffee table
    A nice lounge chair
    A nice cast iron fruit basket

    Threw it all in the back of my truck and will be delivering the goods to the local auction house in a couple hours.

    Here is my prediction on what items will sell for..........

    BIKE--$35
    COFFEE TABLE---$35
    CHAIR---$30
    CAST IRON BASKET---$30

    TOTAL......$130.............minus 20% commission

    PROJECTED NET PROFIT-----$104

    Easy money!!!

    I have never lived in a state where the consensus IQ is any lower than in this state.

    Get this, I buy Mike Alstott cards on ebay for a nickel and sell them for a minimum $5 here...............I really should attack this angle more. However, I currently have about 399 Alstott cards in my possession that need to be unloaded, many of them rookies.

    Fishface, you mention in the title "my dumpster". You don't own those dumpsters; you only own what you manage to pull out of them.

    When you're digging for smaller stuff in smaller spaces, make sure not to spend too much time down there without coming up for air.

    I loved that guy. A true white fullback. Probably the toughest sob on the teams he was on.

    He might be broke or this is why he has cash. He is shrewd and a big time grinder in whatever he does. In NJ area you cannot do this because you would be labeled as broke but in Florida it is accepted because the state is so poor.

    I never saw a guy what to turn a profit in anything he sees or touches.

    unfortunately it's true Ambly. With most pro gamblers, even when they have a lot of $, they will shit in their pants before allowing a dollar go uncollected.

    Does anyone envision Fishface in the fight of his life against an angry raccoon not taking kindly to his foraging space being invaded?

    OMG...........when I dump my trash this is a big concern!!!!

    I'm always scared to death opening the door to the bin.

    I NEVER TAKE ANYTHING OUT OF A DUMPSTER, ONLY THINGS LAYING BESIDE IT.

    Not trying to be an ass but do you ever drive the stuff to a place like the salvation army or the goodwill and donate it all to the needy instead? Just curious.

    I mean I know it's not your responsibility and you found it but I have found doing something like that makes me feels way better then the few extra bucks I am going to get for it.

    *Plus as a gambler it's better to have good karma on your side, LOL.

    F*$k them. Those lazy parasites could always get off their hand out fat asses and beat Fishhead to the rich pickings of what dumpsters have to offer. It is a fish eat fish World out there.
