No offence Apu, but when they were handing out religions you must have been out taking a whizz

On another note, living here is a little weird. My office was my bedroom for all those years. Every once in a while, I have a flashback of being a child
DUDE!!!
You need to preserve that stuff! Find out where your local Historical Society is and have them come in and inspect and preserve it. That is truly history. Photograph everything. You just moved into a piece of history and it's your responsibility to do your best to preserve it and record it. You never know who's life you might touch.
