DEAD MAN'S SHOE: Nov 23, 2003; We will become evil and the stars will come alive

Reporting in for some dumpster diving, since it doesn't cut into my uni obligations. Hopefully I can get there before it's covered with other garbage.

Will also attempt to obtain Jean Climax mug.

Any other suggestions before I go? :pranke: ?

Actually LEDs can burn brighter than incandescent bulbs and last much longer while using less electricity. Although they don't actually burn, the light is generated by electrons. In fact, that quote is completely wrong.

The main thing that attracted me was, admittedly, the 'OH WOW NINJAS' thing, but since then I've found a lot of great things about it and it does get annoying when people just assume it's some LOLNINJAS totally kawaii thing. If you look past the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles pop culture thing built around ninjutsu, it really is a great martial art, and has a fascinating history too.

I'm in there now. Suddenly the prospect of dumpster diving looks less and less appealing looking at the state of the bins round there, never mind picking the right bin, and then there's the chance its in there at all

:cry:

Well, at least take a peek into a couple, you don't have to dig around too much if you don't want to.

Well I'm back home with nothing but smelly hands and an external ip address (213.78.157.225) to show for it.

The p-p-p-powerbook wasn't in any of the bags in bin no.9 nor any of its neighbours', as far as I could dig. Chances are either the scammer hasn't thrown it away yet or he chucked it elsewhere. No addressed envelopes or parcels, and nothing much in the bins inside the place for that matter.

The only mugs around were in full sight of our Mr. Climax and his (non-romanian) mate, and he wouldn't sell me one either. Needless to say I wouldn't have gotten very far if I had swiped one.

At least it was only a tube and a walk away.

Sorry guys
