    I told my three grand daughters when they go out trick or treating not to ask for candy but ask for #1 wire and clean extruded aluminum...... they didnt think that was funny. You the man Mike keep up the scrapping and the awesome videos stay safe and take care as always your fans in Alberta Canada

    Greetings from London!
    I find myself walking along the road, coming across scrap and exclaiming; 'Scrappy Scrap!' as I pass, 'Snibbits' when I see bits of wire and can't help a little 'Alright Alright Alright' 👊👊👊 when passing bins.
    You're too damn infectious!!!
    Keep up the good work my man.
    No piece of Metal is safe when Mike's on the hunt!

    Mike sir big fan long time but someone suggested taking that iPad to the police and just for your information I've been into computer technology for going on 38 years and I've had a few times where situations came up where I suspected things were stolen and I've taken them to the police station a couple of times and only a couple of times because a friend of mine who is a cop that had been a cop a long time informed me that I shouldn't do that simply because I screwed up and chaotic as the system is it tends to fall short, and he advised me never to bring stolen items to the police station because possession is 9/10 of the law and they could turn around and charge you for it which I had to learn the hard way like I said after the second time that kind of situation happened I stopped being foolish if you suspect it's been stolen I would suggest and this was his suggestion which was to bring it up to the police station lay it in front of their door and walk off leaving it to avoid any possible complications from it it sounds crazy but I literally went through it to get it off of my record and everything for months and actually just to get it scrubbed ended up paying a $1,700 fine for stolen property so sir and short I hope this helps and you and anyone else out there not a good idea! God bless you guys have a good one

    Our family used to go to a weekly auction way back in the day. Friday nights in Los Molinos California. Whenever a toilet seat came out of a krap box, the auctioneer would always announce, "We have a picture frame for the mother in law." That always brought the house down. I sure miss those days. Good times!

    I found a laptop, passport, $150 Canadian, some other items in my apartment dumpster once. Went through the stuff looking for contact information. I found an e-mail address on the backpack. Contacted it. A few days later the owner responded. Seems she was in Salt Lake City at a convention. As she was riding Trax (our light rail system) to the airport to go back to Canada her backpack grew legs and walked away. She had a hard time getting back to Canada, or even a hotel room without her ID, without her money. And she had a lot of family pictures stored on her computer.
    I cannot imagine what I would do without money or identification in a foreign country.
