Think of the amount of e-waste that could be recycled.....

I was laghing my ass off reading about the porn finds in your link!

I once found a bag of porn magazines in a bag on the side of an (industrial) road
when I was a teenager. You know you're poor when your first thought is "I can
get money for these!" Selling them proved to be a little more work than I
initially thought but I did get a few bucks for them.

The tricky part was moving them without my parents noticing. I figured
out an idea though. I go to a friend's house and tell him I got some really neat
"computer magazines", once we get upstairs out of his parents earshot I tell
them they aren't actually computer magazines and ask him to hold them for
me a few days. Then I pick them up from him the night my parents are
bowling, put them in my school bag under the textbooks, and take them to
school with me the next day to put in my locker until I can sell them.

Eventually sold them to others at school, although some of the local comic
book shops dealt in used porn magazines none of them were interested in
them. One place said they were too new, annother said they were too old.
One guy I asked said he had some he wanted to sell so I ended up selling
his on consignment. (I learned from comic book trading "never get stuck
with excess inventory" so I wouldn't buy them outright.)

You saw the one about the porn find at a funeral?

Apparently I'm not the only one that finds porn and thinks "I can sell this!". ^_^

When I was about 13 I found a 20 yard dumpster full of computers,software,printers,fax,copiers,ect. after a few trips back and forth on my bike I had the best computer set up a kid could ask for and I had a box of about 1000 3.5'' disks.

You must be real young, when I was 13 3.5" disks didn't exist yet, 5.25" disks were the
normal size but most people kept their compter data on short audio tapes because the
special computer tape drives were cheaper than the disk drives by a wide margin! No
computer would be "thrown out" back then either! :-O

Heck.. when I was young.. and all cents were copper.. folks didn't even have computers. A computer took up a huge room in some building and used punch cards.

Quiet Grandpa, or we'll put you in a home.

Im 29,I guess that could be considered young. I think 3.5'' disks were introduced in the mid 80s.

I know I was using 3.5" disks in the late 80's, so you're probably right about when they were introduced.

Great Porn finds bring $$$$$
