I am often preoccupied with the philosophical questions posed by classifieds.

Used to have drawers now just the frame

Does a dresser without drawers become a “hutch,” or is it just firewood?

Sentry safe with no comb! I lost the combo…..

And how can one use a safe without a combination? All I can think of is weight to block the door when the zombies come. But that’s something, I guess.

Well, of course, you can’t get the job done without one of . . . what’s that now? An old pick-up bed? Cattle feeding trough? Post-explosion propane tank? Wait, wait, don’t tell me – one half of a sensory-deprivation isolation tank, turned into a wildflower planter! The very one used by William Hurt in “Altered States.” A little piece of movie history, right here.

If you like marshmallows from the store, this will take your appreciation to the next level. If you think they’re just for cool weather, hot chocolate, and melting on top of casseroles think again. You must be able to pick these up in the Food Lion parking lot on Fisher road. There is no catch, just pick them up and enjoy. Thanks for looking.
Spend even a little time on free classified sections and you’ll see post after post of people trying to give away construction refuse. Just did a quick look on my local free section, and found 38 listings for concrete pieces. Looks like there’s more available “fill” than there is need for it. Supply outstrips demand, and there’s a lot of unwanted, super-heavy garbage sitting around out there, cluttering the yard.
So what’s the answer? Increase demand! Convince people that they need fill to help build a little hill in the backyard. Suggest that throwing some concrete in the pond will provide a nice little habitat for the sunfish.
Or just flat-out lie and tell people you’re giving away marshmallows.
“Yeah, I know they’re heavy, it’s Mom’s recipe. Don’t open the box until you get home.”

Free dental cuspidor. You pick up.
I love that song: “yo soy un cuspidor, I’m a spittoon baby, so why don’t you spit in me.”*
That aside, I think someone, somewhere, is having the following thought right now: “Yes, I failed dental school, and my ‘license’ is something I designed using Microsoft Paint and laminated at Walgreens. But dammit, I’m going to have my dentistry practice. All I need is my love of teeth, and a . . . oh my god, there it is, and it’s free . . .”
But seriously, INAD cautions against back-alley root canals. Keep Dentistry Legal!
*Here’s hoping a 15-year-old Beck song isn’t too esoteric a reference.
