Before my Betty Ford visit I was a scavenger... There was always some urban renewal program going on in Richmond, Va. and there were a number of us who would break into boarded up buildings and scour them for anything collectible... Several pieces of furniture that I still have came from those days... Not to mention a lot of the stuff that crams my office with another 20 - 30 boxes of stuff for which I have no room...

BTW, before the latest move, I had an auction house come and haul off a 12 foot trailer and pickup truck's worth of the stuff which, BTW Part 2, brought a little over $2000...

So, for me, "America Pickers" is a little like methadone... LOL...
