This was my (and the site's) first appearance in a book, so it's pretty exciting.

The book isn't half bad actually. I found some pretty interesting hobbies which make spotting seems as normal and popular as baseball.

Hey, Dumpster Diving is an awesome hobby. I found a perfectly good 20" monitor that I do all of my image editing on. :D

I agree, Dumpster diving was integral to my college experience.

Isn't dumpster diving illegal? Maybe out here in Cow-Country. I can't speak for New York City...

Well you do know the difference between an FDNY EMT and a Pizza, right?


Even a Pizza could feed a family of four!
