Fungible Convictions

1. Introduce a topic for uniquely nostalgic confusion

In my day, rooms were drafty. You needed paperweights. Don’t see them much anymore.

Did buildings suddenly get less drafty?

Did the drafty buildings get pulled down?

2. Show some unsolicited examples

Over the years, viewers have sent me lots of paperweights, not sure why.

There are heavy paperweights.

Light paperweights.

Paperweights with logos on them. Don’t know what “NAMBLA” is.

Paperweights made out of other things. Here’s some driftwood.

3. Don’t tie up loose ends. Just get intransigent, soldier

I’ve already got a paperweight, and it’s the only one I use.

It’s a bullet from Normandy. Pulled it out of a German.

He didn’t blow away at least.
