    Hey rob TRiple bagged them you say ? was it three seperate bags of cases or three bags inside one another ? If they's thriple bagging like groceries could you ask Blockbuster to send those employees down here ????? LOL - REally!!!! Great haul for you buddy ! I'm happy though WE don't have those Pentagon sized dumpsters down here so the hauls are somewhat smaller !!! But to Quote our Pontificating Potentate of Plastic and High Deacon of Dumpsterdom JVC!!! "FREE IS FREE !!!!!!!!!!!!!" so if it's 10 or 1000 it's still a bargain I'm Just glad the posts are jumping again ! t'was quite dead for awhile here !!!! P.S. #1 check out my blog the new bridge is in {SEE PIC} now I just have to decide on replacing the troll LOL!!!CIAO!!!

    Rob, the BB employee was bagging them just for you! (Or one of his buddies to pick up later) Great haul, speaking of which, Boston may be bringing home the biggest haul again this year......

    that is a pci/e 16x card. should fit on any motherboard that has pci/e 16x slot on it. just download the driver for it for the os you are using.

    I checked with our local Hollywood Video, about the closing. The guy there said it's only a few stores, not all of them. He assured me that this store isn't closing. :eek:)

    Great morning for dumpster dive, only bad part is cases weren't triple bagged so when i gave the bag a pull 202 cases went to the bottom of the dumpster! Yep had to climb in feet first and crawl around on the hands and knees but made me a happy camper sort of like buck fever. Chris
    Edit did a count and puts me at 1600 empty cases and 247 cases with movies, gettin time to seek some professional help about this addiction.Chris

    My neighbor let me dumpster dive in his big trach cans (He's a trashman.) like a month ago, and he still let's me do it. I don't have a camera, but I found a copy of the games Heretic and Hexen :D

    I also found a bunch of old DVD's, including Short Circuit. I'm in love with that movie now :)
