That's always true, but in some cases even that doesn't help.  I've gotten

I wash mine by hand. There's a stainless steel set here, but I almost

That's a help.  Been there.  Did that.

My oldest cousin's son just got engaged too. Dang I feel old.

Me neither.  I had some a long time ago, just for giggles, but didn't keep
them long.

-> for $1.00 each.

All over cat print is a good thing.  I'm working on a throw at the moment
myself.  The top is all but done.  I'm appliqueing the Dallas Cowboys logo
onto both sides with the colors reversed.  A friend is a diehard fan.  The
whole thing is that really soft micro-terry stuff with fleece appliques.
 
->  RH> Odds and ends I've got.  More odd than end in some cases.
-> 
-> We've got some odds, some ends and a right fair amount of meats.

Then there's the strange stuff....  I've always got strange stuff.
