When men declutter

Rob got Max to help him clean out the car the other day by telling him it was a game called "Trash it, or Keep it." It worked pretty well.

Max came in with a stack of papers and asked me if we should trash them or keep them.

"Trash them," I said.

"No, we should keep them," said Max.

"Okay," I said. It wasn't worth the argument.

Jane was sitting on the couch and she told me, "They're playing a game. It's called 'Keep the Trash.''

Sometimes she hits so squarely on the truth, it's scary.
