Old Mar 3rd, 2007, 09:30 PM        For Anyone Who Has Wanted To Smash Their Computer...
While most of you have no doubt one time or another gotten so fed up with your Computer, your monitor, your Microwave, your fridge, a slot machine, anything electronic, I for one at least have a way to deal with such things.

I work for an Electronic Recycling Center, we basically get tons and tons of old, used, and sometimes new electronic doo-dads and whatsits shipped to us every week and we take them apart, sort them into their recyclable materials and ship them off to be re-used.

You'd be amazed at some of the weird, disgusting and strange things people just decide to get rid of. In the last week I've taken apart:

-A Bunch of Microwaves
-Tons of computers
-An Old Intellivision
-An N64 With what appears to be hammer marks on the top
-Some Broken Slot machines that nobody had bothered to check very well for money, so I made a small fortune in..ahem.."tips"
-An 8-Track player with a sticker on the side that read "GLORY TO AL-" (I think the other L was ripped off)
-A Box of Games for said Intellivision, which are now sitting on a shelf in my house
-A perfectly working portable heater
-A scanner with a picture still in it depicting a group of people apparently dancing...or convulsing
-A Lot more.

At least once a week I come across something which is pretty damn unique/interesting/worthy of note. Maybe to offer some amusement to all who can't seem to to find enough of it in I-Mockery to begin with, I'll try to get a picture or two and show something off each week.

Or Maybe I won't...I dunno, I have a horribly short attention span.
