Well Don't feel too bad everyone,
at least we were represented.

I was kind of passing by Boston this evening (on my way
from Connecticut to New Hampshire). So I made plan for
a little detour when I saw this original message.

I was not familiar with the "alley" in question so it proved
to be a pretty painful adventure (for any of you familiar with
the streets of downtown Boston).

I knew I wouldn't arrive by 6pm, but when I finally found the
right dumpster, it was closer to 8pm. All that was left were
two empty steel racks.

While I was rummaging an employee happened by on a
cigarette break. I asked if this was the "right" dumpster.

He said that it was but that there was a line of MIT students
waiting when the computers hit the loading platform. They
apparently didn't last long.

Now, aren't you glad you didn't all drive into Boston like I did?

Merry Christmas,

Jon
