It was a truly eye-opening experience to see HOW MUCH food is thrown away. It made me very, very ashamed (and also feel stupid for paying so much for food). I was out with the Freegans and they made a huge communal meal for a dozen people from the trash and it was GOOD! I have no problem with this - you cook the food anyway! Food Not Bombs is another great org that feeds anybody/everybody who wants a hot meal to veggie meals made from free food.

My roomate got the bed she still uses 10 years later off the street. We got files cabinets, new pillows, and various odd items for art projects too. Even living in the Mountains of NC people would put out good porch furniture for the trash. We had one friend who made his entire living in Brooklyn by selling garbage found items, like CD's, on e-bay! I have never actually put my body in a dumpster before, i never went by one that didn't smell totally foul. When I lived in NYC, garbage days were the ultimate !

Is george really holding a bong or is that photoshop?! Hilarious either way. My first and only time dumpstering involved a family of skunks. Disgusting. Haha, Mike is spam.
