I just thought I would mention I few interesting things I have found.

1. Halloween candy. It was in a bag in a bowl pushed back towards the wall on the top of fridge. It's still good! :D

2. A copy of Time's Arrow by Martin Amis. For those of you who like to read interesting books, I recommend this. It is one of my favorites. It is the story of the life of a German doctor who performed hideous executions during WWII ... only the story is told backward. Hence, Doctors healing the sick seem to actually be killing them, and sadists killing people seem to actually be saving them. Here, Amis shows that the horrors of Nazi Germany were truly fucked up since they could only make sense if told in a reversal of time.

3. Why I am Not a Christian by Bertrand Russell. If anyone wants to argue about Christianity with me, I suggest they read this book first.

4. A copy of Stephen King's The Mist on audio CD. It comes in a really cool spider-box. I forgot I had this.

5. A poseable art doll: It's one of those faceless, wooden things that is completely poseable. They creep me out! (Stuffs it into the box).

6. An empty bag of Munchos: I actually remember eating these. I can't believe I left bag here! (Checks inside for remaining crumbs)

7. A copy of the King James Version of the Holy Bible: In MY house??? Yes! And it even has my name embossed on the cover! I keep it around because, as they say, "know thine enemy."

8. A plaque awarded to me when I won first place in the Calloway County Tournament of Champions for Storytelling. This was back in 1990.

9. A small replica of a garden gnome with the word "Games" carved on the side. It was a gift given to me by the office manager of a satellite business I sold products for back in the day.

10. An ornate letter-opener that looks much like a dagger. It has dragons and skulls engraved on the hilt. It's pretty cool. I wonder why I never use it.

That's it for now. Most of the stuff I have packed thus far is books (5 boxes of them!). But, I will post more if I find anything interesting. Or maybe I won't, because nobody probably finds this stuff interesting but me.

LOL no problem BR, I'm pretty sure they have some letter openers there also...you can sign up to recieve free catalogs from them, and they are pretty cool to, I'm sure I saw some letter openers in the catalogs...as a matter of fact I got a new catalog in the mail today...

Actually, Bloodrayne, the first letter opener in your series of images is the exact same letter opener I have. The very tip of the handle is a little skull, and there are dragon heads at the very base of the blade. That is my letter opener!

I can't believe that I actually found it...That's pretty cool...Now I CAN have your letter opener ;) :p

Holy shit! I just found an unopened Slim Jim beneath a pile of papers! (mmmmm ... <snap! chew chew chew) Yummy!

the last time I had to pack.... i found a suitcase.

So, when I move ... should I:

A. Take everything out of the desk and dresser drawers and pack that stuff up, too.

B. Just take the drawers out and move them with all the stuff in them.

C. Leave the drawers in and tape them closed.

????

I'm just moving down the street, and I want to make this as quick and efficient as possible.
