^Wow, just read about a book called "the Radical
  Minimalist".There's a whole minimalist movement where you get
  rid of most of your possessions and just live off of the
  essentials. As a guy who likes to keep the little stuff he buys,
  I don't think I could do it. But kudos to those who can. It's
  admirable. One here on Facebook wants to get rid of 2,011 things
  in 2011. That might actually be doable. Maybe.^
