The project is done
Now I have my "Dripping Tap Principle" project completed enough to go live. I'm going to drop some links, of which the first 2 will both open in new windows. Simply close each window to return to this blog. When the project was completed 3 days ahead of schedule, I went through it again to be...

The Dripping Tap Principle of accumulating some cash.
I know I said that this post was to be posted "tomorrow" but sometimes tomorrow never comes. I decided to use some downtime from the junk business to set up something I have wanted to set up as a "dripping tap" for some time now. The project swept me away with the possibilities but I have its...

Junkdom guidelines encapsulated
When people outside of my social periphery ask me what I do for a living, I simply answer that I am in the "buying/selling" game. It is commonly understood what is implied by this term by most people; you are buying something at a certain price, then selling it at a higher price with the difference...

Where are the goods - part 2
North America is littered with gold, we are figuratively standing knee deep in wealth, all one needs to do to realize this wealth is change some hardened attitudes. Number one of all of the junk questions I am asked is "Where do you find things to sell?".... the answer is everywhere and anywhere but...

Where are the goods for your junk kingdom?
But first things first: To become junk royalty, a person needs to undergo a transformation of their thought processes. The basic premise is easy enough in finding things that have been undervalued by others but the knowledge, attitudes and clairvoyance you will need, take a bit of time to develop....

Becoming a successful "Junkee"
The term "junk" is an all encompassing term to include anything that is seen as a disposal issue, surplus item or something of value that can be purchased for pennies on the dollar or taken away for free. It can (and will) also include new items sold to the same clients who buy your junk. Depending...

My junk store
I am always amazed at how much good junk there is on the North American continent. As the king of junk, I have made a fair bit of money with little or no investment from junk. This past week for example, I eclipsed $1,200 from junk, spare money that anyone would like to have. A number of my...

If I owned Blogit >>>
Everyone would have a spiffy looking blog template that they could call their own. Even though I can whip up a template for Blogit in about 10 minutes, unfortunately I am on the old format. My templates only work for those who have been here 18 months or more and are using the same format that I am...

Any ideas what to do with this?
I was looking around the internet for some free scripts to play with. Of particular interest were some of the free classified ads scripts available. After checking out a slew of poorly conceived ideas and scripts that didn't quite have the flexability I was looking for, I came across Noah's...

I'm the wrong guy to mess with sometimes
If there is one thing in this world that I truly hate it is when some dummy steals from me, gets caught at it and then has the utter gaul to become indignant about it. I caught one such chucklehead stealing a great deal of my development website bandwidth to show pictures in his eBay listings....
