What's in a bag...

Molly is still not feeling well tonight.  Kyle wanted to listen to her lungs just to see how they sounded.  So, he sent Jack off to the end of the hallway to fetch his old trainers bag from the CSU Ram days of many sidelines.  Jack came running back with his eyes wide open and the anticipation of Christmas morning with what might be inside the bag.  Jack laid it down and said, "Hey Dad, what is in this bag?"  He got the stethoscope out for Kyle and then in Jack fashion ... began to empty the bag!  The first thing Jack brought out looked like an old bottle of hydrogen peroxide but was something else.  He got stuff all over his hands so he handed it to me.  Naturally, we turned to look to see when it expired.  I laughed and asked Kyle to guess how old.  He said 2006!  I laughed again, and said guess again.  IT EXPIRED JUNE OF 1992!!  This is funny because ...

1. I did not meet Kyle until the fall of 1993
2. We did not get married until summer of 1997
3. We have moved MANY MANY MANY times and this bag has made it through all of those moves with expired stuff
4. It took us until our 7 year old daughter being sick for almost 3 days to discover such things

In case you were wondering, we proceeded to go through the rest of the bag and discard of most things.  There were various other "medications" that we well beyond their effective date.  We did laugh that we could sell it to the underground drug ring in Eugene and make some folks happy today, but thought better of it and put it in the trash.
