I walk into the dumpster area of our apartment complex to dump my trash and notice a nice mellow brown-and-white dog resting alongside the dumpster.I give him a smile and, before I can put my plastics into the plastic recycle bin on the left, a scraggy wild-looking dude jumps up from inside the dumpster on my right, grins and explains:

"Looking for buried treasures."

I gave him the high sign and moved on.
