this is a follow-up to the previous vintage picture post. i forgot to mention that i've been buying these photos at a flea-market from two sots. today it rained and all their photos got wet, so they dumped them in a garbage containter, poor souls.

for your american slang collection: "dumpster diving"--i.e. going into the garbage to collect things :)

oh, thank you! it's a very useful expression :)

:) I forgot to use it in a sentence:

"Hey! Check out these awesome vintage photos I found while dumpster diving"

or

"Let's go dumpster diving and see what we can find."

;)

i can assure you that this is my favorite form of diving! i'm a born dumpster-diver. no present or purchase can give me as much satisfaction as something salvaged from garbage. flea-markets are the closest thing to dumpster-diving that is socially appropriate, that's why i love them so much. and an attic full of toys is one of my most tantalizing dreams!
