WAM-CAN

The Official food deposit station was the brainchild of Mr. "TOMS Shoes" Dan. Of coarse having a place for people to intentionally feed me would be out of line with this experiment. But think of the possibilities. Stations where the public could toss out there scraps knowing there is a chance of a scavenger scoping it out. That idea isn't to far out is it?

Dear Sir:

After cursory consideration our marketing division is unable to accept your project. To begin with the nomenclature "WAM CAN" projects a negative connotation, "wam" generally meaning to get hit in a hard fashion, as ingetting blindsided by a bus. Secondly, the non-transparency of the vessel itself is discouraging, possibly implying that that is where the "wam"will come from - in the dark recesses of the container, when one sticksone's hand in there to deliver a donation. Thirdly, if the public should find out that "WAM" actually stands a for a man's initials, the strong odor of arrogant grandiosity will keep them a minimum of 10 feet away.And lastly, and probably most importantly, this is nothing more than a thinly veiled effort to secure free groceries. We suggest that wam can get a job.

Ever sincerely yours,

ACME Marketing Dept.

Before the night was over, I had a rewarding conversation with one of my professors. On the topic of my new diet, he shared some of his experiences of scavenging when he was in grad school. He would go after a yogurt dumpster. The company caught wind of what was going on and put a lock on the bin. The Good Professor said he was still able to pry open the lid a bit to get a bunch of the yogurt cups. He would then distribute them.
The Experience of my professor gave me a heads up for being careful on who sees me diving. I want the public to see me digging to get them thinking. What I don't want is a manager or a worker to pull the plug. The worry wouldn't be about me, but for those who may need the dumpster in real life.

In the morning, I baked the last three crumby potatoes. Cool thing today, I found the buns to the hot-dogs! Also three, 2-liter bottles of soda. At school, I managed to get my hands around 3 Combos and a bit of an Egg Salad Croissant. Some brown sugar cinnamon Pop-Tart crumbs, Banana bread muffin, bagel, turkey bagel sandwich, and turkey Swiss sub.
