I would love to know more about how this idea of Using Dumpsters Creatively came about. Anyone have more details? This seems to be the original source, don’t understand a word though, seems to be russian?

In England they are called a Skip. These are designed by Oliver Bishop Young

English chimneys and English windows lead me to Oliver Bishop Young – but the others above were quicker ;-)
Anyway, great idea and I’m happy to have found it via your blog. Thanks for posting.

That’s the beauty of being that age (college-ish). You look at a dumpster and see a swimming pool. I’d see the swimming pool and think menengitis – nuh uh. But in college, I’d have been ALL OVER it. :)

Oh MAN, look how shallow that water is – PLEASE tell me that guy unfolds his legs before he hits the water.

yeah, the “original source” is a Russian web page (i’m a native speaker), but the designer (as mentioned above) is from UK: Oliver Bishop Young

I’m a native speaker too. I wonder what that Russian site is. It seems to be trashy, but that post is pretty awesome.
I love your blog, Tina! I check it almost every day!
