Well, I watched Horders on TLC last night and again, I do not understand how the Horders also have filth involved. Some of the Horders are rather neat and orderly in their effort to collect and save items for their personal enjoyment. (yes, I have hording tendencies) And, then some have dead cats, dirty, stained carpets, spoiled food in plates everywhere. To me, that is not hording but nastiness. There is a distinct difference between throwing a half-eaten plate of food on the floor–fork and all–and saving decorative plates to display later.
Another thing I noticed is that most of the Horders have money to burn on unnecessary items.
I understand the hording mind, I do.
Granted, when I first saw the show Horders, I saw a lot of myself in the ones who like to save things thinking it will be useful later or hate to throw things away only to find its use later and not have it. However, I cleaned up my act straightaway! I didn't even know hording existed. I called it "saving things."

What is a Trick Bag, you say? It's when you are in a conundrum or an ordeal where there is no quick and easy solution. Some people call it "getting jammed." The opposite of being in the trick bag is having solutions to problems. So which are we, as Americans? Are we in the trick bag or do we have real solutions? This is a Midwestern spin on the political rant sweeping the country. And yes, I am a middle-of-the-road Democrat. This blog will often be updated pre-coffee.
