I thought I was not TOOOOOO bad on the useful (I know I'll need it the day after I throw it out) junk dept but alas reality hit when I had to remove my stash of goodies from my workshop in Psych and take it home since all junk hidy holes are filled up in Engineering. I sense an impending time limit on said items to be imposed by the better half, or at least limited to a relatively smallish area of the garage. The excuse that "its not nearly as bad as other people I know" doesnt seem to wash and my 5 year old daughter identifies pictures of "daddy" in books of mad scientists and eccentric inventors. How did that happen?
