Kittens N Bowflex


Hey Fellow curb shoppers its been a while I know  and I'm sorry about that! but Ive got some great stuff for you! You can expect some interesting things coming up!

Firstly, I found this speaker left outside in the same place where I got my dresser, and keeping to the curb shopping code section 106 POINT 3, which states “Upon finding a whole stereo, one should take the stereo and one speaker to signify that the other speaker is taken when it actually is left behind.” Mainly cuz the common curbshopper has only 2 arms and a stereo is just too much to carry with 2 speakers and the main stereo part.


































A few days later I came across the very pink scenery picture while coming back from work. It didn’t match my décor so I left it where it laid. If you come across something that is interesting but it just isn’t you… or anyone you know… leave it. Because a curb shopper is never greedy. And one curb shoppers ‘meh’ is another curb shoppers “Huzzah!”



Which brings me to this months Huzzah moment! I found a Bowflex sport in my works junkpile! Most of the parts were there, except one piece that I’m still trying to track down. But around 93% was there! Apparently a department was throwing it out and it caught my eye. After checking with my supervisor and my supervisors supersvisor, and making sure it was being thrown out. I happily began taking the pieces little by little. Now I have the perfect Bday gift for my gym enthusiastic girlfriend! It’s a smaller home variant of the huge one in the commercials with the Rambo cut lookin dudes. Anyway, this is by far my greatest find in monetary value, Original Price $1200 or somewhere around there.


After a few trips of parts and sweat and pain I reassembled it back together. Doesnt it look sweet! I even fixed some problems on it that were due to the original person putting it together wrong. Which they apparently didnt have a manual. I had aquired one somewhere. And even though its missing parts, it works perfectly for lots of excersizes.


But My absolute cutest fuzziest most meowiest find has to be Blackie Num-Nums. My girlfriend named her. She was a kitten I found in a bush next to a Kmart, it was meowing and meowing. I didn’t have any food and my girlfriend came and we gave it some water. It walked all over the entire car. Adorable! But alas we couldn’t find anyone to take her, and so we searched for an hour using lots of gas to find the animal shelter that was literally 5 minutes from where we found her.


We got attached to little Num-Nums. I wish I could have taken her with me. I think about her from time to time. And I remember what she said to me, “Meow ..Meow …Meow meow." Hope you found a good home Blackie! Sigh...
