What is claimed is: 1. A debris collection apparatus comprising: (a) a gripping portion; (b) a structure attached to said gripping portion, having: (i) a horizontal surface having a front, back, and two sides; (ii) a pair of side walls, one attached to each of the two said sides of the horizontal surface; (iii) a rear wall attached to said back of said horizontal surface and each of said side walls; (iv) a top member attached to each of said side walls; (v) an entrance opening adjacent to said front of said horizontal surface; (vi) an exit opening adjacent to said rear wall, wherein said exit opening is proportioned such that debris that passes through said entrance opening can then pass through said exit opening; and (c) a container attachment apparatus attached to the structure; wherein said horizontal surface has at least a portion of the edge adjacent to said entrance opening with a triangular shape. 2. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 1, wherein said container attachment apparatus comprises a lip surrounding said exit opening. 3. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 1, wherein said container attachment apparatus is attached to said exit opening of said structure. 4. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 1, wherein said container attachment apparatus comprises at least one cleat adjacent to said exit opening. 5. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 4, wherein said container attachment apparatus further comprises a lip surrounding said exit opening. 6. A debris collection apparatus comprising: (a) a gripping portion; (b) a structure attached to said gripping portion, having: (i) a horizontal surface having a front, back, and two sides; (ii) a pair of side walls, one attached to each of the two said sides of the horizontal surface; (iii) a rear wall attached to said back of said horizontal surface and each of said side walls; (iv) a top member attached to each of said side walls; (v) an entrance opening adjacent to said front of said horizontal surface; (vi) an exit opening adjacent to said rear wall, wherein said exit opening is proportioned such that debris that passes through said entrance opening can then pass through said exit opening; and (c) a container attachment apparatus attached to the structure; wherein said rear wall creates an obtuse angle with said horizontal surface. 7. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said gripping portion comprises a gripping unit having one or more base ends attached to said structure and one or more grip ends opposite from the base end. 8. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said top member, side walls, and rear wall form said exit opening of said structure. 9. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 8, wherein said container attachment apparatus comprises a lip surrounding said exit opening. 10. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said container attachment apparatus is attached to said exit opening of said structure. 11. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said container attachment apparatus comprises connecting devices. 12. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 10, wherein a container is removably attached to said container attachment apparatus. 13. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 12, wherein said container comprises at least one container opening and at least one of said container openings is operatively associated with the exit opening of said structure. 14. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said top member is attached to a grip attachment device. 15. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 14, wherein said gripping portion is removably attachable to said grip attachment device. 16. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said side walls are substantially parallel. 17. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said structure is removably attachable to a container by said container attachment apparatus. 18. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 17, wherein said container is made of a flexible material. 19. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said container attachment apparatus comprises at least one cleat adjacent to said exit opening. 20. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 19, wherein said container attachment apparatus further comprises a lip surrounding said exit opening. 21. A debris collection apparatus as in claim 6, wherein said horizontal surface has at least a portion of the edge adjacent to said entrance opening with a triangular shape.
