} Classical Greek, Orr's Ocean Survival Manual, a World War II surplus
} Army field oven, sheet music to "Malaguena" and "Climb Ev'ry Mountain,"

} I haven't been in here in years. Can you believe I actually *asked*
} for all this stuff? Well, I'm sure I had my reasons. I'm like a kid in
} a candy store with you supplicants. I can ask for anything I want! I
} tell you, it's even worse than watching QVC.
