Dumpster Divers Club
Ahem... I now call to order the first official meeting of the Dumpster Diver's Club. Before we begin, I shall outline the rules and premise of said club.
Rule 1: All members shall be inducted by their first dumpster diving experience. If a member does not return from the alley with an interesting piece of refuse, he shall not be permitted entry.
Rule 2: All findings shall come from "clean trash" only. That is to say, the trash must come from a home we know to be clean, and must have never been inside an actual trash can.
Rule 3: All members must provide decoration or furniture for DDC that came directly from the alley, as non-recycled pieces will not be permitted.
Rule 4: Sworn secrecy... oops.

Good haul!
I was watching this trashy reality program the other day and some of the people were freegans. Apparently they live off of food that gets thrown away from supermarkets. So, if things ever get real bad...

HA! Thanks a lot Chris!
Rule 5: Nothing edible may be scavenged from the alley!

Hey, don't be crackin on the occasional dented can reject. Could be meat, could be vegetables, it's the thrill of the unknown...
LOL!

What's that saying? One man's trash is another one's treasure!

I so love leather suitcases. Totally impractical in today's world, but so pretty. Hi Jessie -- I'm back, now that my computer mysteriously allows me to see Typepad pages again!
