    Well, this weekend went way better than the week started. My sister-in-law had an awesome time at her prom from what she told us. And my wife somehow found an MSR 4-person tent for $10 at Goodwill. We did a test set up yesterday and the thing looks like it’s unused.

      Yo that’s a good score. It’s crazy what shows up at thrift stores.

      The real draw here in Philly is when all the University of Penn kids finish up their semester and move back to whichever Chinese province they came from for the summer.

      Those kids are all so wealthy that they buy the nicest stuff when they move in, and rather than haul anything back to their hometown or pay for storage, they just drop everything outside like a house collapsing in Ultima Online, lol.

      I found a brand new computer once, still in the original box with styrofoam and everything! I put Linux on it and ran that shit for 10 years as my media server.
