re: #362 William Barnett-Lewis
A few selections:
To avoid breakage, glass items should be melted down, then re-blown after moving into your new home.
Six weeks before moving day, fill one small box with books, seal it tightly, and write “books” on top in permanent marker. Then do nothing more until the day before your move.
Throw smoke grenades into every room of your new home to flush out any possible Viet Cong.
Get a jump on things by cancelling electricity and water service several weeks before moving.
Boxes are an unnecessary expense. Place all possessions in the truck and fill to top with packing peanuts.
For the love of God, don’t ever move.
