Drinking heavily, in a vest, whilst cycling, sounds good to me... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

Add to that guns!

My dad stealthfully purchased a couple handguns over the past year without my mother knowing. ALL the guns have already gun up $50-$100. With the exception of our Lee Enfield and some heavily used favorites, all have gone up tremendously in value.

To think that so many thought they'd be shot to pieces.

Beer cans (or any aluminum cans), copper wire, copper pipe, scrap aluminum, and even what some people throw out as junk metals (cast iron, tin cans, scrap iron), all goes into the recycling pile to be disposed of at the end of the year at your friendly scrap dealer. Which turns out to be quite a tidey sum, I average around $200.00. Here's another neat thing I do to have a bit more stash at the end of the year. I make sure I get change, in coins.  I don't care if the register says $1.10, even if I have that 10 cent in my pocket. I want 90 cent back in change. That adds almost another $200.00 at the end of the year. and you never know when you might get lucky and get a rare piece. Also 1/2$'s, quarters, and dimes before 1964 are worth there weight in silver, got a few of those stashed for a rainny day! It's nice to have this security, cause you never know when something unexpected comes along like a car part or the rent! ;D ;D

Same here...

We get things like cast iron drain covers in the pavements and roads, removed and stolen, together with various pipe fittings, etc, from buildings temporally left unattended!
..and never leave your new Washing Machine, Lawn Mower, etc, in the front garden, whilst you put the car away in the garage...!!
All stolen for their scrap value!

Paul... >:(...!
