One more reason they should die face down in ... well, you know.


We haven't had any dumpers in a long time, perhaps because construction activity is down. Several years back, I came home one time and there was a pickup in our alley and a whole bunch of old televisions in the alley in one of our neighbors' alley area. Something like 8 or 10 televisions, mostly older styles. I jumped out of the car and asked the couple what they were doing, thinking they were in the process of dumping them. Their eyes got wide and they said, "I thought we could get these if they were in the alley."

Now, that neighbor is somewhat elderly and has a really big house that is somewhat packrattish, and it turns out that she was doing a big cleanup. She had all of those TVs in various rooms and had taken them out herself.

Oops.

I apologized and said, "Go for it," and the people loaded them all up and took them.
