Help for People in Extremely Cluttered Conditions

[crasichineseboi]

this phenomena is not so much a psychological one as it is one that lays it bearing in the realm of philosophy. we live in a fatalist and determined universe, and therefore this occurs. these examples serve to show how choice is an illusion, all order is vain, and freedom is a delusion. no one is ever free. we are all mere players held by strings in a game of fate and solitude.

[AutumnEnergy1]

I know that the TV programs are to let people know that they "are not alone", and to know that there is help out there. It's also to help the general public understand the reasons behind the clutter, and to remove misconceptions about the hoarders. UNFORTUNATELY, to get people to pay attention, it has to be entertaining. So, these people are put on TV and humiliated (sigh). I wish there was another way.

[HustlinAllDayLong]

I was at visit in one apartment of a hoarder, what a smelly mess.

[snowsamurai00]

I thought this video was just going to give me tips on organizing. :-O

[MrFaisel34]

Andy, my friend has always known it was you, with assistance, behind the targeted web ads. (Twilight Zone Music here) My friend told John Abraham (supposedly a devout Christian but lies with ease) in the employee kitchen lounge that he used a certain insurance company. When John thought my friend wasn't looking, he marched down the hallway to Andy's office. My friend peaked out the door and watched John Abraham tell Andy Cucchiara about the insurance company my friend used. and...

[MrFaisel34]

...and later that night: BEHOLD--targeted web ads from my friend's insurance company began popping up, along with the other targeted information you got exclusively from the inconspicuously lowdown Linda C. McCrae and elsewhere. My friend witnessed John Abraham tell you. There is more proof of how he knows you are behind it, but later.

[DiamondGlitter21]

Thank Islam Islam enjoins cleanliness everywhere I can not imagine that there are human beings living in this filth

[AutumnEnergy1]

@DiamondGlitter21

Oh...yeah, that's right there are no muslim hoarders, and no muslim homosexuals ! I remind you that muslims are HUMAN BEINGS, and they suffer from every illness and rejoice in every good thing that everyone else does.

Your religion (nor anyone else's) is a cure for ANY sickness, disease, or disorder. Note; Homosexuality is normal and not a disorder.

[lifewithoutmywife]

I don't think I'm an actual "hoarder", but I do like to keep stupid junk: /watch?v=mKIh0CvQ0Hs

[weynkum]

i like the music they are using....they make it sound easy,,and i dont know...less overwhelming....

[Voltronkun]

Everytime I see this stuff or catch a bit of the Hoarders show I can't help but clean. I understand that this is a mental illness butI cannot wrap my head around it. I'm not a neat freak, I left dishes unattended and clothes on the floor.

[sugandhwafai]

my GOD !!!!!!

[OrangeZebraTree]

That song is unfitting. Should have played John Cage. XD

[Sinjinator]

my friend's apt. was this bad... piles of garbage everywhere.

MY STUFF IS GOOD STUFF, YOUR STUFF IS CRAP!!

[BeautifulBelovedOne]

Boy.... I started cleaning my messy apartment today and... I am overwhelmed watching this video. I'd probably kill over if I was facing a cleaning job like any of these.

[TheSunshineKisses]

i feel so these people. i now look at my nice tidy house and feel very lucky

[TheDarkDresser]

I know someone who hoards. She feels that if she could send all the things she hoards to a country where the people are desperately in need, she would be able to clear out her house. She has tons of beautiful clothes, shoes (some still in their boxes) and household knick-knacks. She says that she does not want to donate her belongings to Goodwill, because when people buy things cheaply and EBay is too much trouble. Hoarding is a devastating and crippling illness.

[TheDarkDresser]

@TheDarkDresser I left out the last part "When people by things cheaply, they don't value it as much."

[REX719]

JUST GET RID OF ALL THE STUFF... THROW AWAY ,, TROW AWAY,,, IF YOU DON'T NEED ALL THOSE BOOKS , AND JUNK MAIL.. ... YOUR GETTING BURRIED ALIVE.

DONATE IT... OR JUST THROW IT IN THE TRASH

[Serenity10000]

Hoarding has become the new "illness of the month" while its sufferers are persecuted on TV for people's amusement. Unfortunately it carries a mugh worse stigma than alcoholism or drug abuse so people who could be helped are afraid to ask for it.

[writofmandamus]

So my mom is a hoarder, for almost as long as I can remember, but I wouldn't say she's disposaphobic. But the problem is she wouldn't really admit she has a problem. She always says she's trying and has a goal, and if you say anything about it, she'll get completely defensive. Is it possible for organizations like yourself, to even help people who wouldn't want to be helped? Where do I even start? This problem has been the crux of the arguments and problems in my family (almost daily).

[DerdleDoo]

@writofmandamus I hear ya man. My mom always has some excuse. My room is spotless but the rest of the house is like walking through a maze of total crap.

[hunhun23]

I recently had to put my mother who has Alzheimer's in a nursing home and when I went into the house there was clutter everywhere! I took me a long time to clean up the house and get rid of all of the stuff that she had been collecting over the years,

[dsrtflwr]

[padswaggle]

[ElCibau]

please: what is the name of the song?

[1weirdgurl]

thats not hoarding thats filth.

[RobingdfelowsLady]

@1weirdgurl No, that really is hoarding. Hoarding often results in filth because when items start swallowing a house, they are impossible to clean. Paper starts to break down. Food starts to rot. And the person gets overwhelmed and stress out. When they stress out they start to hoard more, and it just gets worse. I knew a woman who did this and these pictures looked like her house.

[jetaju]

you've helped thousands like me...really?!

[epd0126]

what is the difference in a hoarder..and a lazy person who wont clean the house..most hoarders seem to have mental issues as well.. on one hoarders episode the lady was not attached to all the mess and clutter she was just crazy and lazy and nasty ???

[RobingdfelowsLady]

@epd0126 Often it starts with serious(suicidal level serious) depression that doesn't get help, or serious anxiety issues. The people don't know how to cope, so hoarding becomes their coping mechanism. They buy things they don't need (and sometimes can't afford. I don't mean huge purchases, but huge amounts of just stuff like baskets and little trinkets, books and shoes, or pillows). Some hoard food. The food gets bad. It rots and they feel like they can't get rid of it from attachment.

[funnymanedgarrivera]

You should check out my videos on Daniel's Place!

[999Atwood]

Neat hoarders like the book guy are really pretty smart. I have saved everything since high school neatly in boxes. My house & garage are full. I sell around $1000 a month on ebay. I've had books & records $100-$300 each. I don't save garbage but it's hard to discard things that will be future collectibles.

[HattieLovesCattie]

@999Atwood Do you still collect things?Your house may get too full and you need to put stuff in storage.

[999Atwood]

I'm concentrating on selling stuff off.. but still can't resist buying valuable books & records at 2nd hand stores for pennies on their dollar value. I guess I'm different in the fact it doesn't bother me to get rid of an item. I'm more obcessed with hunting treasures at giveaway prices. I had a rare Ike & Tina Turner record sell for $300 that I bought for 50 cents. I just can't see throwing something in the trash I might be able to sell later. But an over stuffed house is the side effect.

[HattieLovesCattie]

Can you sell that Ike and Tina record on ebay for $300?With the sucky economy now,things may be harder to sell.

[999Atwood]

Oh yes, Ebay sells are still strong. Many people out there still have money & a lot of it goes overseas. I want to get this house emptied out but want as much as I can get out of it rather than just give it away or throw it. I don't think that is crazy. My family members are embarrassed I'm sure so that bothers me. My ebay & garage sale totals since 2004 are over $60,000. I don't want to be labeled as a hoarder but I don't want to lose a fortune either getting hasty. I'm really working on it.

[HattieLovesCattie]

Keep selling!!!!:)

[AsasMommy]

Atwood - It sounds like you need a business partner, someone to help you get more up and selling. I understand the allure of finding that "deal" that you know will make money but you do need a middle ground. I have one room that's a mess and I've decide it's going! I'm like you, I don't mind getting rid of things either and donate a lot..but you just don't want to give it all away. My problem is keeping my finger off the BID buttons when I'm on eBay. Sell 1 buy 2 does not work! : )

[gettinghealthygirl]

@999Atwood yes but is the money worth peace and mind of your house and family? Do you spend time living or going through stuff to cash in on someday?

[grettagrids]

@999Atwood I started collecting valueable things and now have NO ROOM in my bedroom. Some of it has to go.

[999Atwood]

I recommend you start cashing it in! The ebay auctions are fun to watch as something you picked up out of the trash stacks up bids. We don't feel so crazy during the sell faze.

[cuddleyduddley]

You might be a hoarder, but you also might be a collector. My sister is a HOARDER.  Hoarders tend not to take care of their things or stack them neatly in boxes. Hoarders save CRAP! So examine your living conditions. Can you invite friends over and not be embarrassed? Do you have friends. There's a big difference between people who collect stuff and people who are hoarders. I know.

[999Atwood]

Mine is all neatly stacked in boxes, I do not save trash or junk. But every room in my house is full. My house looks very much like the book guy in this video. I do have friends but we usually meet at their houses. My niece & nephew love coming here to look through the books & records.

[rtp1968]

@cuddleyduddley :Wow! Kind of harsh on hoardes.Sounds like your sister needs love and support.

[memacnoca]

then you are a collector not a hoarder

[sem53]

This video is an advertisement for a business -- but it's not a business I would use because they charge at least $150 just to tell you how much they will charge you to come clean it up! It sounds like a scam because you have to pay them in order to find out how much their services cost !

[vivitar45]

easy just get a rolloff dumster put in the lane way and start pitching

[HattieLovesCattie]

Seeing that awful frig makes me feel better about mine.One big shelf is a little dirty so will clean it out soon.I need to get rid of a few things first.

[websuspect]

Theres a solution. Get off your lazy fucking ass and throw that shit out. Your family is tired of your co dependent Bullshit.

[sem53]

To websuspect -- Gee you moron, don't you think the people who suffer from hoarding haven't already thought of your wondrous, new solution of "just throw that shit out" ??? For them, it's not that easy --- even if they want to just throw it out -- they find they just can't. Your lack of understanding is hateful and worse than being a hoarder.

[ilovety65]

my boyfriend to a t,i'm at the point of giving up....

[63611400]

I thnk it's very clear that a compulsive hoarder (well some) don't see this situation as a health issue. I have a roommate that doesn't see her own problem. However she will see the previews on tv about hoarders and will act shocked and go upstairs as if it doesn't look exactly like her room. Her car is packed to the brink. I feel angry at her laziness. Because she is lazy

[HattieLovesCattie]

@63611400 Why don't you move out or kick out the roomate?

[63611400]

It's real basic and unfortunate. I have had to move 3 times in the last 7 years due to office closings. This is a coworker. Meaning someone I can trust. In order to keep my home I have to split rent. Moving to a new place knowing no one exposes you to all strangers so you stick with people you know. She was my only choice. I keep her in one room. Along with this illness she has she has exposed some personality defects.She has exposed herself as a person with factitious disorder. look it up. whew

[HattieLovesCattie]

Wow.I wish you could find a new roomate tho,maybe you can someday.Does your roomate clean up after herself in the bathroom and kitchen?

[LivingSuccess247]

With the New Year creeping up on us faster than most of us would like, I cant think of a better way to start off the new year than to get your life organized and start getting things in their proper order and in their proper place.

[will4ward]

I've heard someone say that your surroundings are a reflection of your inner thought processes.

This in turn affects you back,reminding you of unfinished projects and creates a closed feedback loop,where you tune out your surroundings and escape or distract yourself.

I should like to see a "Scientific Psychological approach to cleaning a room!

[crewlla]

I dont feel overwelmed I feel grossed out. I cant understand how people can let it go that far. The gy with the books is understandable it didnt look messy it look like he ran out of room for the books, but the rest of them are dirty. like garbage. Not clutered. it looks like a dump. I guess they really do need help. yikes. :(

[epmelodygirl]

Yes, it is a form of OCD, and one thing I've noticed looking at those pictures is they look like nests that birds and some animals make--kind of a security thing. Some others I've seen are true hoarders with actual collections or compulsive shoppers. One show sorted it all, and it filled up a warehouse which they made a lot of money from, but that is rare. AspieCub that sounds like a good plan for most situations because all this gentle handling they do on the Hoarders show will never work!

[63611400]

I have a roommate that is a hoarder. My roommate got a new car in April and by Oct one would wonder if it was legal because crap packed even with the windows in the back. things roll from the back to the front. You literly have to climb out of this thing. It's ALLLLL trash with a few things from the dollar store. They are unstopable. sick sick sick. She also has a couple of personality disorders mostly attentions getters. factitious disorder what blows me away shes CLUELESS

[waitEveryday]

I almost feel good about my slightly messy house...I wonder if the house is a reflection of what is going on internally.

[iraqidolphin]

[nickelback2727]

Good video, just wanted to know who the music was/is by and as much info as you can give me, thanks.

[HattieLovesCattie]

Watch the new show on A and E called Hoarders.Its on at ten p m Monday nights.

[junior2004hasz]

Fuck all this damn pansy ass hippie "stop judging" shit. This is not an illness or a condition... it's just people who are fucking lazy, dirty SLOBS... and/or people that need to be fucking locked in a rubber room wearing a straitjacket.

GET A LIFE LOSERS

[GhostOfRockyHorror]

damn how lazy are these people, just throw it away fuckin shit!

[AspieCub]

Lets stop judging these people and give them the tools where to begin.

1. Get them out of the house.

2. Get rid of that trash!

3. Make 3 piles of different items after 75% of the JUNK has been gone!

4. Don't tell those people where their junk went.

[hannahwig]

The thing is you can't just throw away their stuff, they've done studies on it, they have to do it with a lot help and support. They've become attached to the papers and the other items that they have. It's a very slow and daunting process. What's needed is: patience, understanding, dumpster, garbage bags, boxes, markers to number & label the boxes, a notebooks to write down what's in what box, a storage unit, therapy, & possibly medication for depression and for the anxiety.

[63611400]

You obviously don't understand this illness.Come to my house and try that if you touched her stuff she would have you behind bars.This is a combination of mental illness and laziness. I have to disagree with many. Laziness is a factor. I live with a hoarder. Lazy is my roommate. She will wait until I would come home from a limb amputation so I could clean the bathroom ( I didn't have a limb removed) but this is no stretch at all, she would. I believe I hate my roommate.

[rtp1968]

@63611400 : Sounds like your roomate has a mental issues more than laziness.

[Mikeexcites29]

You can be evicted from an apartment if your manager or landlord were to see your place like this. Its a serious health issue and it produces a lot of weight on the floor of the apartment.

[knitpicker2k]

Please tell me the name of the beautiful piece of music in this video.

[mjmanning123]

its from the film 'out of africa'

[knitpicker2k]

Thank you!

[lisagarden]

I think that it is an Oboe Concerto by Mozart.

[knitpicker2k]

Pretty close! I found it on Amazon. It is: Mozart: Concerto For Clarinet And Orchestra In A (K. 622) (or at least a part of it) Thanks to both of you for putting me on the right track, (so to speak).

[inkey2]

honest to God....I cleaned up my condo after seeing this......it was getting to be "boarderline" on the excessive clutter

[inkey2]

i can understanding hoarding things like magazines etc......but why save bags of trash

[BrittenLi]

It's a mental disorder, I think.

[inkey2]

A good story.....my late father told me this story, it happened many years ago. There was a relitive, a lady whos husband died fairly young. Well, she became a recluse and when she eventually died someone finally got inside the house. It was just filled with stacks of newspapers, magazines so bad that there was barely space to get to all the rooms....truly a fire hazard. Eventually after sifting through all the crap.....they found about $100,000 in CASH ....

[inkey2]

I can see hoarding things that have some value....but hoarding garbage and trash I dont understand....

[HattieLovesCattie]

My late mother grew up in the Great Depression.You saved everything.That mentality really never left her but her last home was pretty neat.She gave me a lot of old antiques and got rid of the clutter to move into a smaller home.Now I have too much clutter and am trying to get rid of it,its slow going.

[Zimmiez]

I would just throw it all out

[kaos3124]

Not all those photos were of people hoarding material. Some were just of nasty lazy ass pieces of shit.

[eileencepeda]

I can't believe this. Well, once a lady died because her own clutter avalanched on her. This is deadly.

[mydeardiaries]

How do keep your home clean when you live with people with disorders? Sometimes you feel like torching everything.

[gwynnypoo]

I feel you! My wife and I moved in with her g-ma to "help with the house". She's a hoarder and for everything I throw away, she collects twice as much. I know that her crap in her bedroom WILL avalanche on her and kill her but my wife won't help. What do I do?

[meddetect10]

Social Services should do an investigation if this is a safety hazard.

[meddetect10]

Give them one area and let them know that if their clutter gathers at any other part of the house, it will be thrown out-and if they deviate from their assigned area, throw the clutter out.

[1michellemarie]

omg! I can't believe people live like this! I don't even like a disorganized closet!!

[mydeardiaries]

when I was a kid, I knew a 80 yr old lady who live like this.

[azazgirl777]

Disoposobia is not the only reason for clutter. What about people who don't have "the fear of getting rid of things" but they are just lazy? How do you tell the difference between someone who is lazy and someone else with a phobia? What is the help for the lazy person?

[pallortor]

well the difference really is that a lazy person can throw things away they just dont because they are lazy and a hoarder can not throw things away and has an anxiety attack when they try because they think they have to keep everything.

[azazgirl777]

Oh, I see. Thanks!

[Driven763]

wow, that is a beautiful house too with a fireplace, behind all the clutter of course.

[boswellchrome]

this problem has gone on to long

bring it out in the open

both my parnts are hoarders i am a minamalist now i had to fix my self (thanks mom&dad i still love you both)

HOARD INFO IT DOES NOT FILL YOUR HOUSE ONLY YOUR HEAD

[cyrex94]

These people are ill, a cluttered mind makes a cluttered house, dull boze the lot lol

[nicolemama3]

dull boze it hu?

[Reverie626]

My Grandmother is a hoarder. I feel sorry for her because she is very old and she lives far away from us so we have a time hard to help her. The only person who cleans her hosue is my aunt who is lives across the street from her house. It is impossible to throw away anything. It is always difficult but we are trying the best we can to help her.

[Reverie626]

[jaggae]

I hope I won't ever get that bad...my room is full of stuff that I just can't bear to throw away, like my design school projects...

[totallybarefoot]

Design school projects are ART. I was told NEVER to throw away art, even sketchbooks. Of course, some things you can store electronically.

So long as you aren't saving pencil shavings and old underwear you will probably turn out OK.  Keep the design projects.

[jaggae]

i've only thrown away 1 design project, because it's too big. It was a lampshade made of my own handmade paper glued to a structure made of bamboo. It was about 5x3x3ft (150x90x90cm). Kept it for a year but my room got crowded and was collecting plenty of dust...so finally into the dumpster.

[jaggae]

I sold an A2 print to the school and gave 4 A0 posters to my lecturer who liked them alot. What I hv left is 2 dozens of work on A2 boards, about a dozen A3 documentation booklets, 8 1x1ft wooden frames of art, at least 4 envelopes of photo paper, some packaging items...and yeah the sketchbooks :)

I hv a turntable, a keyboard, a skateboard, a basketball and a badminton racket; all hvnt been used for ages...and abt 100 old music mags

[meddetect10]

Some people save even their urine.

[totallybarefoot]

These people probably have a good gene--one for thrift and a dislike to throw good things away. They need help not bringing clutter in to their homes.

It's not so praiseworthy to fill the land fills with stupid crap from Wal-mart you bought in December and toss in January, then buy more in January, to toss in Febuary...

[toounfazed]

I am not judging the people who live like this because a close friend of mine does. But I don't get it. I just don't get it. Is it really that hard to take out the trash, wash the dishes, toss in a load of laundry, and sort the paperwork? I do this every day and spend no more than 30 minutes a day on what I call life maintenance. I've had messes, I've had clutter, but I don't understand that level of mess. Don't tell me they are disabled, obviously they were able to drag it inside somehow.

[totallybarefoot]

It's easy when one dishwasher load and one washing machine load gets your kitchen clean and your laundry mostly done. But imagine if for some reason you let these things build up for even one week, two weeks? A MONTH? It would be a big chore to get through it. It would not be life maintainance, but life recovery, literally, getting your life back.

I do the 30" a day thing too, but I started with really big house, (room to stash now, sort later)

[toounfazed]

Believe me, I understand how the clutter happens. I had a accident and was laid up with surgeries and couldn't walk for nearly two years. That was in a four bedroom house with two living rooms, huge basement, attics, and a storage room. And with next to no help. I have a friend who lives like that video. She is college educated, has fibromyalgia. She doesn't have the "energy" to do the dishes once I've cleaned the kitchen top to bottom and declutter it, but she has plenty of energy to buy

[toounfazed]

more stuff and drag it into the house. I stayed with her for several months to help clean the place up. We both knew that the "stuff" was a representation of postponed decisions. But I can't understand how she can clutter the rooms up within HOURS of me clearing and cleaning them at her begging request. She asked and with help we got the kitchen, bathroom, living room, dining room, and bathroom looking like home beautiful! Within HOURS the rooms were trashed, seriously trashed!

[toounfazed]

The volunteers, some young teens, had tears in their eyes. How can someone disrespect our hard work so badly? How disabled can you really be if you have the energy and ability to shop for hours, to dump bags of your treasures all over the floor, and sit stuffing your face watching tv while the clutter breeds in front of you? Sorry, venting now. That is the last time I'll help anyone like that. She gets regular psychiatric care and is prone to diagnose others mental and mood disorders. So,

[toounfazed]

forgive me if I cannot understand how she can live like that. I think I'm allowed the wonder of it all. Of course there are some deep psychological issues at work. Of course I'm not judging how she lives. But I am judging how committed she really is when her actions disrespect me and others. I am judging whether it is greed or avarice or laziness that causes people to hoard so much stuff that will never be used and is thus wasted. The world is too small for that much wastefulness!

[totallybarefoot]

In her case, this may be psychological, part of her mental illness. She's not doing it to disrespect you, she does it because it's her symptom. You have been very kind to care and put in your labour and effort to get her safe and comfortable, but if she won't maintain it, you can't devote your whole life to her and her clutter.

Maybe she will find some cure herself, through medicine, meditation, some insight about what she is doing to herself and start decluttering on her own.

[Jibbie49]

Where does she get the MONEY to keep buying more and more stuff that she doesn't really need? I don't have any money left after buying, gas, groceries, and paying utilities.

[toounfazed]

She lives on social security disability and a teachers disability check. She is NOT disabled. There is more than enough energy and stamina to shop and bring home the loot. I feel bad for disabled people who really need the income when I see it wasted this way.

[GilliganOX]

Helping people with mental disorders is the hardest! I salute you for your efforts!

Check out: "How Clean is YOur House" -----see it on youtube!

[isat214]

i understand some people's compulsion for hoarding but keeping the styro plates and cups in your house? what is that? that's not hoarding anymore...it's something else.

[wayclean]

I agree. The trash is what I can't understand. Yes, we have trash that builds up sometimes in our house, and yes, it is very messy sometimes, but I always get to a point where I come through with a garbage bag and do a big sweep. I can't see throwing that on the floor. Which is how I know these people have a mental disorder.

[meddetect10]

I always criticized my housekeeping, but I cannot stand trash in the house, and especially not on the floor! The refrigerator-same thing. If it is no good THROW IT AWAY!

[felistigris76]

ok this video definately made me feel better about myself and my cluttered house. Mine isn't even a tiny bit like any of those pics I saw, thank goodness!

[wayclean]

Videos like these make me feel so much better about myself. No matter how bad my house gets, it's not THIS bad. But I do feel sorry for these people and it is a mental disorder.

[SteveSmith26]

WTF those people are stupid.

[fifilaruemissie]

No...Im not stupid.

[gypsianna]

WOW!~

Thanks for posting this- I watch this stuff for a few minutes to get motivated to do the dishes and vacuum. I feel bad for people with this problem and try not to judge them harshly. Going to the thrift shop makes me want to go home and get rid of stuff too since it's all just "stuff". We all have our problems and our vices. Try to be helpful to those we know and love whose problem is hoarding and clutter and be glad it isn't your personal issue:)

[OptimusPrimus001]

Whoa nelly! I thought I was bad,but not that bad!

[dopehousex3]

DAMN!

[pyonika]

oh my gosh! is that the refrigerator???

[BarbedWireHalo]

I am a pathological hoarder. That house looks alot like mine. I wish there were more help in the UK for us. xxx

[missannekol1]

Call Kim and Aggie.

[BarbedWireHalo]

I genuinely considered something like that but I think it has done me more good to work through the problem myself.

[Babetta9]

Oh man, a house worse than mine! Mine was almost this bad, the old guy with stacks actually looked more organized than me, but I knew where everything was! My girlfriend helped me to take about 8 bags of old newpapers, magazines and stuff to the recycler and give away stuff I could no longer use. But it never got to this point! Whoa nelly!

[velli8]

they mustve had a BIG party but Wow!

[SGIBSON3069]

Whoa!

[n14e5o15]

Wow!

[retrobg]

Wow!

[theplan06]

Wow!
