    These were foisted off on me

    Nostaliga: It's gonna be a sifter, hopefully producing far more than 5-10 dollars worth of items.

    These were foisted off on me

    The guy who found them probably picked them up out of ditches/contruction sites, but I've only ever seen broken ones. Then again I don't do much digging. Basically this set of bottles is just enough to keep me interested, and enough to make me wish SOMEBODY around here would get out there and...

    My grandfather owned a mold for some soldiers very like those top ones. There was even an alternate mold to make lead boy scouts!

    HUNTER - GATHERER

    A sad thing happened to me today.

    As I was semi-digging through my usual dump, I stumbled upon the first marble I have found that I would consider old. As I examined it, it crumbled to glassy dust in my hands.

    Snorkeling a lake

    They have to build lakes where you're from? I don't get it. Maybe its just cause I'm from LAKE County, but I only know of maybe one standing body of water that is man-made.

    So, what do you drink?

    Heh, you said pop. As for soda (coke being the general term to us Central Floridians) I prefer Ginger Ale. Not just any kind though; it has to be Blenheim. Other than that, Root Beer and Grape soda are both a close second to the reigning champion, Coke. Beer is definately Yuengling and I...

    Better late than never!

    Heh, I wasn't asking if you fuond dumps like that all the time, that would be insane. No, I asked because I'm from Florida too and have trouble finding people to dig with. I live half my lfie in Jacksonville and half of it near Orlando. If you ever need a hand with a privvy or something just...
