Micah Winship (Unwelcome Guests)

SPB: Dumpster diving: yes or no? Got any stories? 

Micah: Dumpster diving? - yes. Though it's been a while for me, I used to live next to a very convenient dumpster where it was almost easier to pick up stuff from the dumpster window than entering the store.  Highlight was the, "October Storm," of 2006 in which a blizzard came before the leaves dropped and made a huge mess of things.  The store lost power and threw out a bunch of packaged snacks along with everything that should be frozen or refrigerated. We were set for a while.
