Howdy, y'all! My name is Mike and I absolutely love scavenging for free stuff, random treasures, lost valuables and other interesting artifacts. I mainly rock the dumpster diving scene but can be found digging through trash curbside as well as scavenging the river bottoms for lost treasures in the summer months. Join me on my epic voyages!

Increase gravity is due to Stardust and meteorites slowly adding to the gravitational pool of the Earth. You are not getting weaker or older you are just entering the the heavier earth stage of a planet.
