I threw out a Jordache (as in Jordache jeans from the ‘70’s) brand suitcase recently.

Well, I hope you saved the ‘Members Only.’ That could be worth big money in no time.

...a coupon that McDonalds gives me a free coke. ( 35 cents or less) ..No kidding.
A hard drive from a laptop with 125 gig...(I'm sure that jewel is worth a fortune) and a 2 gig stick of Ram.
Several notes that insist I don't forget....something about don't set off the Hydrogen bomb...OK it's a roach bomb.
.....and something in the bottom of my drawer that moves and I do believe has eyes....

I think it works, but I haven't had anything that it would fit for years.

Considered tossing an old folding pencil with the name of a sheet metal shop on it. It has the address with no zip code and the phone number with no area code.

I think that makes it pretty old, so I put it back in the drawer.
