When the government's boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence. — GARY LLOYD
The nation we live in is the nation we have built by design, each successive generation raising the wall of tyranny a little higher. - Chris Griffin
oddly, it makes perfect sense to me. if the provenance is certain then rarity is assured and you have a unique piece of history. i'm not sure i'd be interested in stuff from random plane crashes--i'm assuming these items come from well-known events and/or are between well-known correspondents.
but i'm a numismatist so i collect stuff too ...

Move the new VCR/DVD to the kitchen.
And after you move it to the kitchen, tell her you needed to do it first so you can document the upcoming remodel on video for future reference, or the DIY channel, or..................... you get the idea.
Hello.
Rule number 1, mancave, there is NO kitchen.
Rule number 2, remodel means buying a new refrigerator and perhaps a toaster oven and microwave.
Rule number 3, do not get married.
My first wife was married to me for just over two years. It's been twenty eight years since the divorce, my former in-laws are distant but civil, but the first wife still wouldn't piss on me if I were on fire.
Second wife and I will be married twenty-two years this week. She's a keeper, I brought up her two kids from a previous marriage and we had two of our own, all now grown and the youngest two in college.
As was said before, it depends on the woman. But my grandfather, a very wise man told me "Son, always treat your wife like a thoroughbred. That way she will never grow to be an old nag!"
