You sure have to think outside the box to even think about climbing into that box! Not sure I could do it. Great puzzle.

Absolutely! The best place is in a nice apartment complex... people will throw out ridiculously good stuff because they don't have storage and they can't be bothered with recycling or going to Goodwill. Long ago when my kids were little my hubby got me a set of Revere Ware missing one small pot in perfect condition and got the son almost 30 GI Joe's plus vehicles and accessories from a kid who outgrew his or just wasn't into action figures. I have complete confidence in my soap's ability to clean any possible germs or dirt.

It depends on where the dumpster is. Several years ago, my son had a friend who was able to raid the dumpster of a telephone company whose attitude was it was cheaper to throw away faulty equipment than repair it. My son was trained in telephone communications and repair in the navy, so between them they managed to keep all their friends well supplied.

If it was the only way to feed my family then yes I probably would. I probably wouldn't have to though because I would sell my body first,and probably make out o.k.(excuse the pun). Very cool image by the way Travis,excellent bin.:)

One of the TV stations here did a story where they learned that there were people who got a large percentage of their food out of grocery store dumpsters getting food that had to be taken off the shelves, but there was actually nothing wrong with the food as long as you either froze it or ate it right away.

I would have said "no," until I got a part in a play by a new author. The play is "Government Issued Long Johns," and the lead character has to dumpster dive to get away from the very restrictive long john society. It only looks like a dumpster, but is in fact the entrance to the "outside." The play runs for this and the next weekend at the Aurora Fox theater in, well, Aurora, Colorado. Any nearby folks ought to come see this very funny show.

Break a leg, Gary. Wish I were close enough to go see it.

I don't think I would but then I have never been in a position where I had to. Hmmm

Hey Gary, I have my tickets and I'll see you this Saturday. I read the play last year and can't wait to see it.
