    Bravo erewen!! of a good response. I spent a good part of the morning tearin' apart flat screens and trying to convince myself to stay out of it.

    BUT

    Seems to me all OP did was relate an experience, I did not take it that he passed any particular judgment or dissed the homeless fella
    . The sad fact is many segments of our society see an honest days labor as "more work than it is worth". Then there are those of us who see a ten pound bag of screws meticulously saved over the course of a weeks tear down as a Saturday Matinee Movie Ticket with their Girl (Granddaughters rock) that was not in the budget before a little extra time was taken to save the screws. Value is a relative thing. Sadly we for the most part have become a nation of "Gimme Instant Gratification" and have forgotten that a penny saved is a penny earned.



    The old fart will now step off his soap box and return to pinching them pennies.
