    An easy example of this is my desk versus my sisters desk. She has a computer a clock and books. I have all of that, but I also have several Star Wars Action Figures, Lego Men, and a Monty Python Black Knight set up on the desk.

    That said, I must admit I was none too happy when Andy handed his toys over. Me, I'd've kept 'em for my first post-college apartment. So that eloquent pause when Andy looks at Woody for the last time did get to me.

    But, to be fair, I tear up at almost every movie I see. Plus patriotic songs, game show winners, and anybody reminiscing about Disney.
