well, it's not really a classic to my way of thinking but.....

I was sitting in my office 1/2 hour ago, and out the window I saw a truck
pull up to the dumpster in the parking lot. The guy started to pull out a
very nice clean decomissioned hours ago AS400. He was headed to the dumpster
with it. I have no interest in IBM stuff whatsoever, but decided to walk
down for a looksee.

When I got downstairs, someone in another office downstairs had seen the
same thing and was already handing the guy cash for the system.

I found it amusing.....
