Beware the hydroponics stuff in the oven! People forget, and visitors don't look before they pre-heat. I still remember an unfortunate incident involving a plastic popcorn bowl so stored, and if that incident were a person, it would be retired by now. The memory lingers rather like smell of the fish a young colleague overcooked in the office microwave. (We finally tossed it out and got a new one.)
As for under-bed storage, I recommend a set of pull drawers. Generally one of them is blocked by the nightstand, but the other two are useful without crawling under the bed, the whole thing isn't blocked by the the nightstand--the trundle bed effect--and you avoid the blunt guillotine.
I don't think we actually get wiser with age, but a good memory for previous disasters serves much the same purpose.
Hope you don't have an electric blanket! I have heard it's best to write about personal experiences. Now we know where Max, Markham, Peterson, Bashford et al get it from. Thanks for letting the rest of us join in the fun and the time trav.... (no I wont say it).
