5) 1 pair broken sandals, 1 pair broken tennis shoes, 1 pair painful dress shoes, 1 pair scuffed dress shoes.
6) Numerous framed Japanese prints and calligraphy, none of which are mine.
7) 1 Plate containing the remains of reheated Waffle House hashbrowns scattered, covered, chunked, peppered, and diced.
