I was going through my record collection the other day, and wow! There sure are a lot of records I never listen to anymore. I hate to throw them away, but I need space for new ones. What can I do with them? A. Sounds like a groovy excuse for a party! Why not invite a bunch of girls (boys, too, if you like) over and have them bring their old records. Youll have a ball listening to them, remembering good times you had while they were popular. Then have a trading session. Everyones sure to find treasures among the rejects, and there are bound to be some left over that nobody wants. Donate those to a worthwhile organization. (Mom will be able to suggest names.) Its a wonderful opportunity to have a fun party, improve your record collection, help solve the space problem, and help some worthy group, all at the same time! Q. Sitting under the hair dryer practically broils my ears to crisps, not to mention the back of my neck. But when I turn the dryer down to cool, my hair takes forever to dry.
