Back in early December, it was a plastic bag. The other day it was a bottle of Corona and some juice type liquid. Also, someone […]

[Photo courtesy of Miss Heather] Miss Heather, who found this chair on Ainslie Street near Keap Street east of the BQE calls this the Wolverine Chair because it looks like it has been set on by wolverines.
