Ashes to Ashes, Crap to Crap

Misc_crap

Clockwise from the top:

1) Business card from my credit union, which I interact with online or via interoffice mail.  Should I ever need to visit in person, I can probably find their location, since it is housed, after all, in my company's main building.

2) Coupon for cat food I do not buy.  (This got recycled)

3) Rubber stamp of new address, freebie from my mortgage company.  Was tempted to keep until I remembered a) I bet I'll be getting (less bulky) free address stickers from some other advertising effort shortly (and I did!) and b) when I do address an envelope by hand, I still like to use the Cross pen that was given to me as a gift when I graduated from high school.  It was "just like Dad's" and I am very fond it it.

4) 2 packets of spiced cider, leftover from Kidlet (who moved out in 2008).  She was visiting recently, but she won't eat anything expired, not even dry goods one day past the printed date.  These have no date stamped on them, but she didn't trust them.  I make real cider when I want a hot cider drink, so these are useless to me.  Won't compost since I don't want to add sugar to the pile.

5) Keychain flashlight with corporate logo.  The battery is failing.  Will toss as after I remove the battery, which I will recycle.

6) Not sure what this plastic thingie is - possibly a holder for some corporate foam logo thingie circa 2003. 

7) Patch kit for the Aerobed.  The Aerobed is rarely used, I don't find it easy to find the leaks in the things, and if I ever really wanted to patch it I bet I could use my bicycle tire patch kit.
