We put out 8 bags of garbage for our cleanup appointment as well as some old mattresses. We came home from band practice and all the garbage bags were gone. Trash nappers I guess

Ah those were the days. I had my own email and webservers for years but shut them down due to it being to much of a pain to keep up with patches and security what not.
