Thankfully, I've not had that experience. I thought about it a few times when walking into one of those block enclosures. You don't know whats behind the dumpster. I'm 6'2"/255, but I don't like surprises and I don't run fast.....or far. And can you imagine trying to explain to the emergency room nurse what you were doing in a dumpster at 4:30 in the morning? LOL FIFPJVC

RippDogg- You were sleepwalking & having a dream about chasing leprechauns & you forced one to take you to his pot of gold ( The Dumpster ) you were then awakened by his band of Leprechaun cohorts cleverly diguised as wino's , gutter punks , street crazies and communist infiltrators ! who insisted you swear alleigance to the Great Gazoo & join their Dance party - And while you are not averse to the muse of dance , being a good christian you Affirm ( Not swear !) and are therefor forced to open up a Major sized can of WHUP A** and that's what you were doing there@ 4:30 in the A.M. ! The end LOL !!!!!!! That's your story and I'm sticking to it !

cincyrob- Naw Just a regular joe like the rest ! And though I can do math ( Count my money !!!- It's easy when you have pennies LOL! ) Math was never one of my favorite or better subjects ! So I don't think I could be like the numbers guy ! Fractals , decimals , cosigns, tangents all that stuff makes my brain hurt !( OooH ! my Brain hurts !!!!!"MONTY PYTHON " LOL! Back in my P.I.= pre -internet & Bacherlor days I used to read alot of books - Now I surf alot & read magazines like ComputeR shopper & Maximum Pc & the occasional book still ! - So I suppose you could classify me as a Transplated Cityboy -psuedo-intellectual/ Fountain of Useless information with a flair for the creative word! ( all This and so modest too ! ) LOL! who lives in the sticks of central louisiana - and no I'm not a Katrina Refugee I've been here since 1997! Though I don't mean any disrepect to those who were diplaced ! When the storms hit my family & my wifes family came to stay with us & lets say 22 people in a small 3 bedroom home is stressfull all way around ! thankfully everything went back to normal after that ! Now for my question Why are there no Leprechaun women ? You never see any -maybe it's like baby pidgeons ? Just a thought - Later everyone !@!!!

cincyrob- Thanks for the compliments, Guilty on all counts ! You've got the right attitude - Tenacity ,fortitude - Or is that just gas ? LOL! , and Dogged determination ! Oh no It's De-Terminator !!!!!! I'll be Back !!!!! My brain Hurts again ! It's not a Toomah ! !!!!! I went went TuesdaY but was only able to check one dummpster ! had errands to run & bills to pay ! Found 1 dvd case -well actually I really found two but one was one of those Cardboard /plastic Eco-Friendly kind that never close right again after you open them the first time !so I left it there ! 9 Times out of 10 the ecologically friendly packaging is just cheaper to make/buy so the profit margin is even higher ! We do our share for the enviorment anyways we recycle plastics !!!! Should have double checked it for a movie though ,but it felt kinda light so Probably empty ! Maybe we'll ask Ireland about that ? Leprechauns thing -? . Always after Me Lucky Charms ! And if you buy a box today in with all the marshmellow sugary crusted goodness !we'll actually include a small packet of cereal!LOL!!! for a limited time only ! again thanks for the kind words ! Good luck -Safe & Prosperous diving , Happy Burning ! "free is free", & You so Crazy !!!!!!!! LOL! later cincyrob hope you hit good this time !

Or you could put on Dio's (Holy Diver ! ) - This may really Date me but Dio reminds me of a Shorter version of Tiny Tim ( TipToe Through the Tulips !!!!!) on steroids !!!!! Looks wise - not musically Though ! Still TipToe Through the Tulips !!!!! Might be an interesting cover for Dio To Do ? It would like Marilyn Manson singing that Old song By Louisiana 's former Govenor Jimmy Davis ( You are My Sunshine )= ( Goth remix !!! LOL!) Twisted thought of a Twisted mind I suppose ? Or you could put on something a little mellower ? Steve winwoods ( ARC of the Diver !!!) depending of course on Musical taste & Mood! or perhaps something a little more obscure - Surfing Bird - By the TRASHMEN of course LOL!Oh ! well I think I've beaten this concept to death !so good Luck & safe diving cincyrob!!!! later

EEEWwwWWWW thats bad i didnt mean that RIP Randy..... think ill get my Tribute cassette out and play it... now whos showing there age...lol

LOL! have a Good'n later ! ps #1Forte est vinum fortior est rex fortiores sunt mulieres super omnia vincit veritas: "Wine is strong, a king is stronger, women are stronger still, but truth conquers all" (1 Esdras, chapters 3 & 4)!

Well then ! Deep subject ! - & speaking of deep subjects ,If weather & time permit I'll be diving today - almost literally ! it's been raining & cold so if the dumpster is watertight! it might be mask and fins time LOL! Though I suppose that a cordless drill could put some Drain holes in it ? That would be vandalism ! I really don't expect that much water though ! could bring a Bar of Irish Spring Soap to ward off Leprechauns ! & splash on in like a bathing Saquatch in a BirdBath ( Not a Pretty Sight ,Trust Me!!! LOL!) & kill 2 birds with one stone ! I know your out there ,I can here you breathing LOL!

Yeah you know you've got the fever when you start buying tools to make diving easier & or more efficient ! Like a Grabber/reacher see - reacher.com ! I bought a folding one at biglots and wore the hinge out - I fixed it with some cable ties & a wooden dowel ! In hindsight if I were to buy another one I would get a 1 piece -non- folding one ! makes reaching them dvd cases a lot easier ! think of it as a Giant Claw machine that you don't need quarters for !I keep mine in my truck along with a supply of garbage bags & some hand sanitizer ! I'm not OCD or a Germ -A- Phobe but it is a trash can your rooting in ! & a snagger /hook-rod helps too - Metal or wood pole/rod with a point bend or hook on the end ( for snagging bags & boxes ) mine was a tool someone made at work & threw away ! free is free ! it stays in my truck & nobody bothers it ! Or me LOL! O'well RippDogg good luck & dive safe " FREE IS FREE )JVC)"

In light of your good fortune, I think it only right that you should start a coop there in Cincy to help underpriveliged ADers with cases for their backups. It's the only right thing to do. Hey, I could use a few!

I got the same response from a few of my friends when I gave them cases. They saw the Blockbuster insignia on the inside and instantly knew I was giving them trash. LMAO...Yeah, I'll bet the dumpsters in Cincy are much nicer than the ones here. You only get real trash up here and besides, it's too friggin cold. Maybe I need a dry suit or something. I know one thing, if I'm going to be diving around here, I definitely need a respirator. P.S., I think someone posted on getting those stickers off easily. I know I saw it somewhere. Course, I could probably find a good recipe for Gumbo on this site if I looked hard enough. Long Live AD...free-is-free, don't bother me if you don't agree...so sayeth JVC...
