Of course, in Wisconsin you have to wear three times as many clothes just to stay warm.;) Well, I think that says something about the fashion consciousnesses of Wisconsin vs. NYC’s.

We have enough clothes, for all three of us, to last, well a few years at least. Enough decorative objects, art, flower arrangements to decorate three houses, and then there's the fabric. Any quilter/sew'er will tell you " you can never have too much fabric" well I have too much, if I sat at the machine for the next year 8 hours a day 6 days a week I might not finish all the quilts, pillows, drapes I have lined up in the projects pile. I think humans are pack rats, we get stuff, buy stuff, and we keep it. I'v been trying to clear out the extras, things I know full well I will never use. DJ, well thats another deal, she wants to keep everything she has, even stuff from Jr. High... Sheeeesh ! So I throw out more and more of my stuff, she keeps all of her's. Small price to pay for such a good companion. Looking out the door from the office/sewing room, I see the door to the ” mother of all closets”.

When it appears that Springfield is doomed, all the people in the tavern rush out onto the sidewalk en masse, as do all the people in the church (which is immediately next door), then the two groups, en masse and simultaneously, each run into the other building. “a Bible store right next to a store that sold barstools” reminds me of a scene in “The Simpsons Movie”.
