Why do keep having all the fun in NY?!

haha. but yea. Dumpster Diving is a GREAT way to view the effects of the wasteful comsumer society we live in. Whether for food or profit, you will notice a trend fairly quickly,"this stuff is still good!"

I found about 75-100 dollars worth of blank cd-r, cd-rw, dvd-r, and dvd-rw today. plus a slew of other goods.

heres an article from a week ago in the washington post, on me and other dumpster divers in the area.
