[info] I know this seems like an odd thing to have on the minimalist list of things to get rid of, but how many times have I saved paper stuff like this?  No time to go through it a pull out the important stuff.  If it’s so important, why is it sitting in a pile?  I do this with my personal paperwork, papers at work and even art paper stuff.  Maybe I’ll invent the ‘Ronco Residential Paper Mill’ and do commercials, or infomercials, on late night TV.  What?  I can use the Ronco name.  It was my grandparents last name.  I’ll make my own paper.  I have done that before…  Why does this world need so much paper?  Yes, some is necessary, but all this?
