HA! Nope....I just looked under "House Contents," and there were no teeth!

Did you see the "House Contents?"

And I thought I was a pack-rat!

I was commenting on the teeth in his mouth. I only see two in the picture. I did read the contents. It's interesting that they were from an upper middle class family (father a doctor) and were both very well educated. Very strange.

I actually have some experience with this. In the 80s a guy I worked with said he'd pay me $20 an hour to help clean out his recently deceased aunt's house in Federal Hill, Baltimore. I thought that was pretty good money so I agreed. Unfortunately, I quickly realized I shouldn't have agreed. Every floor of the house was stacked floor to ceiling with junk of every imaginable kind. There were narrow pathways through the junk that allowed some semblance of movement from room to room. The stench was overpowering. Fortunately we found no bodies.

This hoarding disorder seems to mostly afflict those who were in their impressionable years when the depression hit.
