Question: Where do you store a sofa and a dozen empty glass water cooler bottles in a garage filled with boxes?

Answer: You don’t. Toss ’em.


The nightmare of this garage cannot be conveyed by mere photographs. But an unapparent deeper horror remains: somewhere in this pile of dross are the missing Smogmobile 2000™ tapes. And possibly Jimmy Hoffa.
