Anyone want some scrap metal?

We have a handful of old systems laying around at work, systems and monitors that don’t work, in actuality. According to the Ohio State EPA we are now to be considered a “Hazardous Waste Generator”, and must, by law, find a way to recycle the systems and monitors. Obviously, we don’t have the ability, in our little office building, to recycle the scrap metal of the machines, so my new duty is finding someone who will take this stuff off our hands. I’m on the prowl for a scrap metal dealer or some such place that will actually take the stuff without charging us for it, as opposed to the places who we’d have to pay to come take the stuff. (Wouldn’t the head honchos love that expense..”Oh I need you to reimburse me for this expense I incurred in trying to junk our old systems, because I had to pay someone to take them!” *L*)

So, I add yet another hat to my job description, “Junk and Scrap Metal Dealer”. I think I need an MP3 of the theme from Sanford & Son to play while I try to accomplish this task.

    I’ve been trying to get the RecipRoll from blogrolling.com to go into the table in place of the Gnomedex roll, since Gnomedex is sort of old news. But the RecipRoll, because it uses actual URLs, is a little too long to fit without changing the width of the tables to accomodate it. Not cool! I…

    Brad reminded me about the Columbus ITEC show going on next month. I had forgotten all about it. I’ll probably be there at some point during the two days of the event, but I’m not sure when yet. Gonna have to get a good look at the seminar schedule and what not before then. 🙂…

    Because of us leaving for Myrtle Beach right after work, and needing to get the monthly invoicing done before a meeting that managed to get moved to first thing in the morning, Angela dropped me off at the office early this morning. A full hour before I normally get here. (And I usually get here 15…

    While we were in Louisiana we had some small opportunities to get out around town and take some pics. Unfortunately one of our SD cards had a problem. Someone managed to pick the “delete all” option on the camera menu when she was trying to delete one picture that hadn’t turned out very well. I…
