Do you remember where you got your answers before "Google" and similar sites?
Yeah...I think you could find stuff in a set of books....ummm what were they called? Encyclopedias? Ha...I can't even give away a set. No one will take them & I will feel terrible just throwing them in the trash. They're only like 30 years old. haha
You can't sell them on eBay !? It would be interesting to read 30 year old information
Shipping would be too high. The library won't take them & not even Good Will. I thought some kids could use it as a coloring book? I guess not.
I had to throw away a set of encyclopedias at my dad's when I cleared out his house for all of the same reasons. Sad. The Beatles were even mentioned in them. They were from the '60s.
I think I need to get in that mindset that you had & just throw some stuff out.

I used to wonder why dictionaries weren't banned .... They were full of bad words and dirty words and words you should not use - ?
Dictionaries, for example, have the correct words for anatomical parts of the body. I wouldn't call that bad or dirty. Today you can use those words on TV!
Re read the post - Tongue-in-cheek Look at all the words that are bad (Could be the word "thief " for example) Dirty - could be mud itself etc... You will find many in there
Re-read it and still couldn't tell you were kidding. Sorry!

Who calls a kitchen sink a duck? And even if they did, why shouldn't you?

I can't imagine ever having that much free time. I'd be in that restaurant all day. And no one would care anyway.

Should I throw away old textbooks that I used in school many years ago? There is higher Math and electronics that I used to go back to as needed to refresh ideas and brush up when Rusty - from not using some of them for years and being challenged by them again later in time. Much of this is found on the Internet quickly. The books take up space - Are not in demand, not used, unable to resell.... * they cost me a bit at the time .... Trying to clean out a few rooms and toss stuff away. Should these books be tossed?
