I Don't Know How Many Cases. Maybe a Thousand?

[Spock]

Channeling Quint (from Jaws) as we slowly clean up the building site of a property that we recently bought.

Well, I can cross cleaning up a building site of an alcoholic that shot himself off my bucket list. It is extremely sad, but all you can do is laugh about it. Mostly empty beer cans everywhere-every once in awhile we find a case with full cans in it. The cans aren't so bad as they are at least worth something (slightly more than a penny a can-and no BobJ, I do not want to know exactly what they are worth)-45 cents a pound here.

It is the bottles that are going to suck. One sad thing is that we could get every can (an impossible task) and then show people the piles of bottles remaining and people would not be able to believe the amount of beer bottles.

I talked to somebody who was on site before the family burned the house and he said the whole back side of the house was piled up with cans and bottles. Apparently, he threw a large amount out the windows when he was done with them. I got into that pile the last few days.

I really hope that somebody tried to get him help-he was in his early 50's and lived alone-but I don't think that even people who knew him realized how bad he was.

As I said, all you can really do is laugh about it and the several empty sticks of Old Spice deodorant kind of surprised me-apparently he wanted to smell nice and from the many sardine tins-he really liked his sardines.

The vast majority is Busch Light cans and bottles, to the extent that the relevant supply chain had to notice the drop-off when this customer disappeared. It is that extensive and remember this is a rural area where such a customer would be noticed.

What a sad way to live. Glad it's getting cleaned up.
