At least you have a sock "drawer."

I've got a closet with large pull-out trays, and a tray for my white,
black and "other" socks. Not a monstrosity of my making.

In the drawer to the right of my desk, I have the following:

55 different kinds of computer/camera/tape record connect wires
a half dozen different airline frequent flyer cards, some for airlines
that no longer exist
earphones
two different tripod heads and several different quick release plates
three boxes of staples
a bic lighter
three boxes of speer golddots
various receipts I need to keep

Hey Tim,

I think Tom suggested this as well. I have a little HP R717 point and
shoot as my kick around camera.
It came with the USB cord for uploading to a computer using the HP Photo
something or other software that came with the camera.

I quickly determined it was a pain in the neck, cumbersome and slow using
the HP software.
I bought one of the USB SD cardreaders for about 29 bucks, and just take the
SD memory card out of the camera, plug it into the reader and then into a
USB port. (In fact this computer has a SD slot in it).

Anyway, it shows up as another drive in "My Computer" and is much faster to
open, download, delete, etc.
than using the camera as an external drive connected by the USB cable.
Plus, you don't have to have the camera sitting on your desk or waste
battery power in it to upload the pics.

I keep all my daily clothes in the same place. Dirty ones in the washer,
clean in the dryer.
Drives Mrs.E. nuts, but fortunately we have two washer/dryer setups in our
house, so I adopted one set as my clothes washing, drying and storage areas.
No need to separate darks from lights either. Just let the new jeans modify
the colors of the socks and skivvies. I mean, who cares?

Ever since I stopped working, the type of clothes I wear has been reduced to
about 3 or 4 pairs of jeans, white crew socks, a bunch of skivvies that I
buy in bulk at WalMart or similar, and a bunch of goofy T shirts or pullover
type cheap shirts. About once a year I make a trip to WalMart to replenish
my wardrobe, whether I need to or not.

I also have a pile of dark, forest green polo type shirts with a embroided
Sportsfish type boat with "Pangea" over it. Mrs. E. ordered a ton of
these, plus matching ballcaps back when I was considering doing paid fishing
charters on the Egg Harbor. She got about three boxes, of mediums, large
and extra large.

I am still working on using them up. I definitely am not a fashion
statement.

Typical for around here.

At least you have a sock "drawer."

I've got a closet with large pull-out trays, and a tray for my white,
black and "other" socks. Not a monstrosity of my making.

In the drawer to the right of my desk, I have the following:

55 different kinds of computer/camera/tape record connect wires
a half dozen different airline frequent flyer cards, some for airlines
that no longer exist
earphones
two different tripod heads and several different quick release plates
three boxes of staples
a bic lighter
three boxes of speer golddots
various receipts I need to keep

In the drawer to the left of my desk, I have the following:

(classified)

:)
In my sock drawer I keep my Plastmo compass, my Standard Horizon VHF, my
Garmin GPS, old Sony Watchman and various AC charging cords.
Seemed like a good safe place.



(unclassified)

In the drawer to the left of my desk sits a
9mm Sig semi-auto long barrel handgun. It is not loaded.
A fully loaded 19-round mag is carefully hidden nearby.
I can slap the mag into the handgun and rack the slide pretty damned quick.

Naturally, if there are kids in the house, the handgun and mag go in the
safe.

No need to separate darks from lights either. Just let the new jeans modify
the colors of the socks and skivvies. I mean, who cares?

Ever since I stopped working, the type of clothes I wear has been reduced to
about 3 or 4 pairs of jeans, white crew socks, a bunch of skivvies that I
buy in bulk at WalMart or similar, and a bunch of goofy T shirts or pullover
type cheap shirts. About once a year I make a trip to WalMart to replenish
my wardrobe, whether I need to or not.

I also have a pile of dark, forest green polo type shirts with a embroided
Sportsfish type boat with "Pangea" over it. Mrs. E. ordered a ton of
these, plus matching ballcaps back when I was considering doing paid fishing
charters on the Egg Harbor. She got about three boxes, of mediums, large
and extra large.

I am still working on using them up. I definitely am not a fashion

I think in this state (MA) he would be arrested for doing that, if caught.
If not mistaken, all household guns must be stored in a locked storage
container, locker or whatever and/or have locked trigger guards installed.
Could be wrong, but that's what I recall.

It must be hell being such an asshole to everyone you come in contact
with that you must answer your door with a loaded gun. Either that or

incapable of depending yourself without your phallic symbol guns.

Not really. The house was built with a large "in-law" apartment that was
never used. I took it over.
It has a full kitchen, dishwasher, clothes washer/dryer, etc. Works out
good because Mrs.E. has the rest of the joint for her and I have my "space".
Two worn leather chairs (one belongs to Sam Adams), a kitchen table covered
with notebooks, various manuals and other important "stuff", and a living
room filled with amplifiers, guitars, keyboards, speakers, wires, unfinished
projects, car carburetors.

She rarely comes in here anymore though. I wonder why.

I'm not upset at anything.

In fact, I'm very amused.

He sounds a little like Dirty Harry. Don't you think? He'd be peeing his
pants at the first sign of aggressive behavior.

Typical for around here.

At least you have a sock "drawer."

I've got a closet with large pull-out trays, and a tray for my white,
black and "other" socks. Not a monstrosity of my making.

In the drawer to the right of my desk, I have the following:

55 different kinds of computer/camera/tape record connect wires
a half dozen different airline frequent flyer cards, some for
airlines
that no longer exist
earphones
two different tripod heads and several different quick release plates
three boxes of staples
a bic lighter
three boxes of speer golddots
various receipts I need to keep

In the drawer to the left of my desk, I have the following:

(classified)

:)
In my sock drawer I keep my Plastmo compass, my Standard Horizon
VHF, my
Garmin GPS, old Sony Watchman and various AC charging cords.
Seemed like a good safe place.



(unclassified)

In the drawer to the left of my desk sits a
9mm Sig semi-auto long barrel handgun. It is not loaded.
A fully loaded 19-round mag is carefully hidden nearby.
I can slap the mag into the handgun and rack the slide pretty damned
quick.

Naturally, if there are kids in the house, the handgun and mag go in
the
safe.

I'm exercising self-control....

I think in this state (MA) he would be arrested for doing that, if
caught. If not mistaken, all household guns must be stored in a
locked storage container, locker or whatever and/or have locked
trigger guards installed.
Could be wrong, but that's what I recall.

I don't live in Massachusetts. I also am licensed to conceal carry in
three states.

ll. Pray tell. What for?

Maybe 16 years on rec.boats has something to do with it.
