Illegal Trash Dumping

Mousefield · Sep 20, 2010

Scesnick, good move. :thumbsup: In the 80's I managed a large drycleaners and we had someone fill our dumpster with their garbage bags. I went through a bag and found their address. Loaded up a company van with the bags and dropped it off in their driveway about ½ mile away. Never heard anything more about it.

Wow !! Seems like I'm nopt the only one who has this problem. I am lucky that illegal dumping is one of my state trooper buddies pet peeve.

I found a load on the side of the road this past spring and of course I found all kinds of mail with the culprits name on it.
My buddy had them out there cleaning it up in the rain. lol..

She just kinda looked at me with a surprised look on her face. She didn't seem too happy. I really don't think she knew why I was throwing it on her property, but I'm sure her husband told her later.

Kinda reminds me of the song "Alice's Restaurant".

we got a phone call from officer Obie. He said, "Kid, we found your name on an envelope at the bottom of a half a ton of garbage, and just wanted to know if you had any information about it.":laughing:

I like his answer: "I cannot tell a lie, I put that envelope
under that garbage.":laughing:

I like the part where he is in jail sitting on the bench...

and he was mean 'n' ugly 'n' nasty 'n' horrible and all kind of things and
he sat down next to me and said, "Kid, whad'ya get?" I said, "I didn't get
nothing, I had to pay $50 and pick up the garbage." He said, "What were you
arrested for, kid?" And I said, "Littering." And they all moved away from
me on the bench there, and the hairy eyeball and all kinds of mean nasty
things, till I said, "And creating a nuisance." And they all came back,
shook my hand, and we had a great time on the bench,

The scene at the draft physical location was in Springfield, Ma. That is where I passed my physical and they told us we would be inducted within 21 days. I said yeah right this is the gov't. I didn't trust them so enlisted in USAF. BTW this was in 1968 and I do believe they did induct within 21 days. Good thing was I met my wife while stationed at a base. 4 kids and 39 yrs later she still puts up with me. I guess I was lucky. Kinda off the point but what the heck.
