-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's where I put stuff that is
generally "short lived" and/or of immediate interest and doesn't fit into any of
the other regular sections. It's analogous to the "kitchen junk drawer"
that many folks (including me) maintain. Small bits and pieces that are too good to
throw away but you really don't have any better place to put them.
Choose an item from the list on the
left. Good luck finding what you're looking for!
