Dump Diving Score



My wife just came back from the transfer station....from the dump with two boxes of Magna-Tiles. That's a $100 paper profit!

Incredibly, she said she was JUST thinking about buying a set for our kids.

What are the odds that someone would toss them at this very moment?

With my luck running this high, I should probably buy one of those wage-slave lottery tickets...

Never mind the lottery tickets--they are for SUCKERS.Put on your "proprietary trader" hat and do what you are best at--short the market--MORON!

The swap area is legendary...but I'm still wrapping my head around taking my own trash to the dump! I'd never heard of such a thing before moving to Hingham!

Did you ever hear of a *townie* before?

Never did hear of a "townie",but I too love to marginalize MORONS.

Did I ever hear of a townie before moving here? no! but yeah, now I know several townies...they wax nostalgic about the good ol' days and they have interesting opinions about things like, why they don't think the fruit center will go out of business when the new fresh market opens, etc. etc...and they are notorious for thinking El Sarape is AMAZING mexican food !
