I am always investigating good books and good classical music. Many of the things I discover are pretty old – and often out of print. When I discover something I really want to have, perhaps an old CD of a rare piano performance, or a book from the last century that fills a unique information hole, I may feel lucky only paying double the going price in order to get it.

Q-tips brand ear swabs. I know it sounds crazy, but they are the only brand that I have found that provides enough material to comfortably remove moisture from my ears after a shower.
