My Dad is a 4 star general in the pack-rat army. I call him 'Sanford'. It is actually a problem and some of his brothers and sisters seem to have it as well. They grew-up in a very large family with absolutely no money, so that is what I attribute it to. It drives my mom nuts and it is embarrassing too. The only man that I know that would go to the dump and come back with more stuff. He has a shed so packed with stuff you could not walk into it, the garage is jammed and you have about 30" of floor space to turn around in. Trying to find a tool will drive you out of your mind - and he has a lot of them, but can never readily locate them. I gotta keep a check on myself too, but at least I realize that stuff has to go and do it when I can. If you have not used it in a couple of years then recycle, donate, pitch it. For me the mess weighs on me and gets me stressed out and it feels like a weights lifted when the stuff is gone.
