“I’ve watched enough “Antiques Road Show” episodes to know the value of junk. Because everyone knows someone whose parents threw out an expensive Mickey Mantel 1951 rookie baseball card, people keep everything. That’s why I keep stuff from my childhood. My Sports Illustrated magazines. My APBA cards. My old, rusted firetruck that squirts water. Various objects.”
— Joe Vulopas. “Clearing My Cluttered Judgment.” Lancaster New Era (Lancaster, PA).
McClatchy-Tribune Information Services. 2008.
