you are!

Yeah, I got chips

No, actual betting chips.

I'll bring some Doritos,

too. I don't care. F*** it.

Chips and chicks man,

that's what I'm telling you.

Beer and b*tches.

Can't go wrong.

- Hey, is this a

good place to park?

- Sure

- What's wrong with that?

I don't care how

old they are -

alright, that's a lie,

never mind...

Alright man, I'll

call you back.

Yeah, Hall & Oates

just showed up.

Yeah, I'll call

you back. Later.

Classic.

Let's go.

- You're driving, you have a license, right?

- Yeah

Alright ladies, file in.

- Yeah?

Come in.

- Hi Mr. Bear. I'm

sorry to bother you, but

has anyone called

about the urn?

No, I haven't

heard anything yet, but

I talked to someone

at the police department

and they put a

notice in their

lost and found department.

So I'm sure someone

will call soon.

- What will we do if

no one comes for it?

- I don't think you

have to worry yourself

about that.

Its been reported.

Alright ladies, here's

the deal -

We're going to clear

everything out of this

house today.

And we're gonna

do it in two stages.

First, I'm going to

go through everything

and mark all the

good stuff with a sticker.

This is the stuff

we're going to keep.

It should be

packed up carefully.

Once we have the

good stuff packed up,

we'll get the rest

of the sh*t loaded

and get the f***

out of here.

There are boxes

and packing supplies

in the back of

the truck, so why don't

you guys open it up,

and bring that stuff in.

K?

Then go ahead and

get that piece of sh*t

out of here.

- Whoa, dude.

Shouldn't we warm

up or something

before we lift this?

- Come on, princess.

We got all day

to warm up.

- Alright

- So how long you been

working with this guy?

- Well, I got there two

minutes before you, so

- So you're with Manforce?

Well, I hate to think

of it in terms of

being "with" Manforce, but

yeah, that's who called

me this morning

and turned me on

to this enlightening

experience.

- Oh yeah?

Whatever, dude.

Whenever you're ready there,

we can do this.

- My name's Eli, by the way.

- Dale.

- Pleasure

- So what do we

do with this stuff?

- Either throw it away,

or give it to charity.

If its not obviously

trash,

put it in a box

and write "donation" on it.

- Okay, and the

dirty dishes...

I mean, do you

want to wash them

or throw them out?

- No. F***.

Just throw them in

the donation box.

They don't care

if its dirty.

Besides, they hire retarded people

to clean this stuff.

Don't throw anything

away you don't have to.

It costs money to

take sh*t to the dump.

But donating sh*t to

charity is tax deductible

- So what's the deal?

Who left all this
