Are You Sentimental?
Being the sentimental person that I am, I'm a total saver when it comes to anything special. I collect business cards of restaurants I've been to with friends, napkins from weddings, menus from great first dates, and place cards form dinner parties I've attended. I savor love letters, old photos of my parents when they were my age, and I even have a piece of the ratty, old blanket I used to snuggle with as a child.

Why You Should Trash the Term White Trash
Some people tire of more don'ts to add to the so-called politically correct list of things not to say.
