The Lounge / Anniversary
« on: January 11, 2013, 11:38:44 PM »
Seems, from my profile, today is my 1yr anniversary here.
Though my "Alias" account that got messed up has yesterday's date as its anniversary yet has 200 posts.
Pretty sure I didnt make 200 posts in one day before switching to Alias300. And pretty sure it's been more than a year.....
But that's what's listed so......presents? Anyone? Helloooo.

Online Storage Auctions / Re: Has anyone bought a unit using SealedOnlineBids.com?
« on: January 11, 2013, 06:47:01 PM »
I'd give it shot but none in my area. The Texas ones would have to be pretty good for me to bid. I'd have to pay either storage until I was in town next or pay to have it moved.

Just watched two episodes.
I like the cast better and filmed/edited just a touch different, maybe due to indoor lockers, that I like better.
Entertaining enough but don't think I'll watch anymore.......

The Lounge / Re: Looking for Decent Furniture........NW...Bellingham to Lynnwood Areas
« on: January 11, 2013, 04:17:10 PM »
I avoid units with furniture, no truck.
But I hit estate sales often. Tacoma/puyallup to Everette but mostly (90%) in UW, ballard, capital hill area.
Last day they work deals. Have seen some beautiful pieces go for pennies because if not sold thy have to lug it out and donate.
Want me to give you a heads up or you looking for a sure thing (not go there to find its gone or overpriced in your eyes). .....or are you looking for "free"?

The Lounge / Is it stealing if.....
« on: January 11, 2013, 04:09:23 PM »
The grocery store had preformed bacon, cheddar, hamburger patties. Four 1/4lb patties for $5.
But five weren't marked $5 but $0.50! So I grabbed them all. 5lbs of burger for $2.50.
Figured I could use not just for burgers but scramble over rice or hamburger pasta with beans......
But now I feel guilty. Is not telling them stealing?

*****NEWS FLASH!!*****
-Administrator of 'Storage Auction Forums', Aka 'Travis', found living in storage unit.
Sources say Travis recently disappeared after posted defamatory remarks on the forum about his wife, name not disclosed. Travis disappeared late Friday and thought to be dead based on police photo's of the disarray of his home. Police speculated only a horrific crime could have occurred. Further investigation proved that most storage auction buyers homes are in this condition and they begun a search. Travis was found later that day sleeping in a storage unit with multiple cats. Police tried to turn Travis over to his wife but he insisted on going to jail under protective custody.
Police were also working a theory Travis's disappearance might be related to not paying royalties to other forum members for the use of the idea for a title of a book by Travis; yet to be published.

General Storage Auction Talk / Re: DFW buyers - you don't want to miss this MAN unit!
« on: January 11, 2013, 01:32:32 PM »
I know. Just give'n ya sh*t.
We were looking at it and with out being able to see it in person, $2000 is pushing it.
All those boxes could be the crap they pulled. New parts are out racing around.
Pic's look like the block is ready for build so who knows, but I've seen plenty of cracked blocks being stored for some reason. Radiator perked my interest but, again, picture doesn't help much.
Leather jacket looks interesting.
I'm going to put my money on it going for............$2640+10%premium.

The classics never die. 
Looked into plasma donation. I might do it just cause they pay $100 bonus for people that have had recent tetanus shots! Two days, two hours each, for $170? Why not? And all the juice you can drink? Come on!! I LOVE juice!
Downside: They keep a sample and put you in a national registry......sounds to me like covert Government DNA collection scheme to me. Probably inject nano probes back into you to track you and read your thoughts!
What? ......My love for conspiracy theories go to far this time?

If you're really that bored, you could always overpay for a storage unit and hope for the best.
Oh, I've totally bid on lockers 'just because'.
Sadly the best I've won has been the "sure it's two dusty boxes and a dead cat but its only $35 bucks and I'm bored......"
