I still can't drive by a dumpster without scoping it for goodies. That's a habit I'll probably never lose.

Likewise. My wife has commented that she knows I’m not looking at other women when my head turns when I’m driving :)

Great habit. Trash picking is excellent because people throw out such great stuff. Perfect working condition, sometimes perfect condition period, sometimes just good for materials. One such Mr. trash picking is shown here with his pile of motors and hand made power tools ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4d_EN4jB_BI ) though I don't know if this is the video in which he mentions the pile of free motors he has. Another great trash-rescue proponent is DiResta (youtube maker person, seen in glorious trash picking mode here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=epBIl4zDk8c ).
