Takin' a dump

I'm not by any means a radical environmentalist, but there are certain eco violations that just piss me off. Dumping your crap along the road is one of them. I live in a rural area and I have pulled more than my fair share of trash bags out of the creeks and ditches than I'd like. I always put on the latex gloves, open them up and see if I can find the long lost owner. I've had a couple of gold strikes in the last couple of days that need to be shared with the world. If I can figure out how to do it, I'll be posting a wall of shame for my local dumpers.

I have to admit that of all the trash I've picked up, most people are smart enough to remove anything with their name on it. One person even took the time to cut out their name and address from several bills. I can almost admire that. Hmmm, I wonder if they put that much effort into it if it would be easier to just burn their trash or call a disposal service? But hey, I have yet to soar to their depths of thought. I suppose that I could give them the benefit of the doubt that it fell off their truck. Nah.
