You Are A Bottle Digger, If: 1) Pick & probe has nothing to do with your nose.2) You keep a shovel & probe in your vehicle at all times.3) You enjoy digging holes for no pay.4) You'd rather have a back hoe than a bassboat.5) You read fire insurance maps at the breakfast table and in bed.6) Your family & friends believe you're nuts.7) Construction & demolition sites get you extremely excited.8) Most of your fantasies are about digging a treasure trove of bottles.9) "Dig it", is far more than a slang term.10) Your personalized license plate has the word "BOTL" in it.11) You have an "extra" wardrobe of ratty clothing used only for digging.12) If there's a shelf anywhere in your house, there's at least one bottle on it.13) You cringe at paying $20 for a new shirt, but quickly shell out $50 for a new shovel , probe, gloves, & a potatoe rake.14) Assorted buckets with dirty bottles, shards, and sherds line your porch. There's also a couple containing various metal items/objects.15) You take a vacation day off work with the reason you need rest, then you spend the entire day digging.
