A lot!

Ever read 'Real Boys'? I glanced at it quickly and left it at a relatives
a few years ago. But I think there's something in there for this!

ps. funny thing. At I had this conversation last year with someone in
r/l. His wife's name was Jean. HE said her messiness was a big part of
their divorce. So when I asked if there was a messy 'gene', he screamed
out YES! there is a messy 'jean' and I married her!
