I can understand it. One spouse (the one with the old radios) begins to
allow them to overflow the hamshack and letting them accumulate in the
living areas of the house. He might spend money needed for household
necessities or on money the other spouse had earmarked for her hobbies
or interests. In short, the one spouse (the one with the boatanchors)
begins wandering back and forth across that line which separates hobby
from mental illness. ;-)
