If Goodwill has a sign out saying they recycle electronics, think they mean working/saleable stuff?
To me, "recycle" says you're taking "junk" and splitting it into discrete substances to recycle the raw-ish materials.
But for computers, etc. that usually costs money, right?
looks like they're trying to recycle

That's what I'm thinking. I'd give more saleable stuff to Goodwill.
I'm getting paranoid about my PC. If a chkdsk operation means that the BIOS can't see the drive anymore, am I well and truly hosed? I think I might have had more than the boot partition up there, but I don't remember.
Right. There was to be food. Iron. Hot.
I wish someone would bring me hot brown rice with baked beans and a dollop of sour cream, cheese and chunks of fresh tomato.
Don't ask.

Huh. Good for them.

that sounds really good actually.
Speaking of Facebook, I just had another friend who I haven't been in touch with since college contact me through it. I'd been thinking of her these last couple of weeks because she has the same last name as a certain recently disgraced governor. She told me that I looked the same as I did in college. 20 years ago. So as far as I'm concerned today Facebook is one of the most awesome inventions of our time.
Nearly all Goodwill agencies receive donated computers. Last year, Goodwill handled over 23 million pounds of computers. Most of these donations are unusable and safely recycling or disposing of these products is costly, and directly impacts funds available for Goodwills’ job training and career services.
That makes it sound like they almost don't want any.
Hi Shir!
I somehow seem to have agreed to take pictures of the Purim party at my parents' synagogue. I don't quite remember agreeing to this, but my mother seems to think I did.

So it's like they're saying:
If you insist, we'll take your dead computer. But you should feel really guilty about it.
