This is a great post, Alex!

When I was a young homebuyer at 26, my wife, daughter and I started with very little and even though we bought a tiny house, there was plenty of open space - room for people and guests and parties, etc.

In the 12 years that have lapsed since then, we've managed to stuff this tiny home full of STUFF. In my case, it's mostly books that have taken over my space. For my wife and daughter it is clothes. We're all responsible for DVDs, furniture we don't need, useless gifts we've received, etc.

I'd love to be able to liberate us from this scourge and return to the good old days. I can't imagine how I'd go about doing so, however.

This article is food for thought for me. Thanks.

Hey!

Everybody who *amazingly* came up with "retailers' occupation token" need to work a little bit harder.

If you're going to use Google to get an answer for one of these, AS I FREELY ADMIT I DID IN THIS CASE, you need to expend a little bit of extra effort to conceal that fact.

OK, what exactly is a "retailers' occupation token?" Beats the hell out of me.

Obfuscation is the Google-cheater's best friend.

My bohemian parents decided to let my sister (born 1972) and I (born 1970) choose our own middle-names. How lame is it that neither of us followed through and chose middle-names?

My wife is from a country/culture where EVERYBODY has a given name and a formal "nickname" with which they are associated for the rest our our lives. Perhaps coincidentally, my wife is one of the only people from her country that any of us has ever met that doesn't have a formal nickname. She's always gone by her complete first name.
