Top 5 ways to quickly clean out a junky garage.

By observing my five principles of work:

1. Determine if it really needs to be cleaned out.
2. Wait and see if some workaholic does it.
3. Sit under a shade tree and carefully plan an efficient way.
4. Make some Garage Sale signs.
5. If none of those work, roll up your sleeves and get it over with.

Your Top Five Sentimental Keepsakes

I have virtually nothing that predates my recent life. VBut I do have:

1. A Swiss Army Knife, circa-1970, with checkered red aluminum handle and four very useful blades.
2. A pocket magnifying glass, originally owned by my grandfather about 100 years ago. (Both of the above are always in my pocket)
3. All of my old passports, stamped in over 100 countries (currently in my stepdaughter's custody)
4. A few pieces of baseball memorabilia, scorecards signed by Schoendienst and Slaughter, and some world series press pins, all obtained by myself.
5. Not old, but treasured, is a pin inscribed in Chinese 'wild bird society of Taiwan, 1996', given to me by birders I met in the field there.

I guess i type too slow. Carry on.

Top 5 reasons to ignore this thread:

1. One has passed on, in the glimmer of his monitor, and is thus as inanimate as a motel nightstand;

2. One is a sociopath, with no interest in human lists of any kind;

3. One cannot count to 5 in any language;

4. One is of an elite calling and has no time for trivializations;

5. One is a *****cat and finds the shimmering monitor lights fleetingly playful, but would prefer having his belly rubbed.

PLEASE NOTE: In #5 above, I wrote a very innocent name usually associated with a pet cat. My mind is not so base as to have substituted the first two syllables with *****; someone else did that for me [INSTANTLY ... what are we coming to?].

As in the dreaded Carlinesque "*****cat *****cat, where have you been? I've been to London to visit the queen". Or the Peter Sellers XXX-rated romp "What's New *****cat?" What's the difference between a ***** and a Bush?
