what's in your glove box?

Ok, obviously I am up too late, and I am tired... couldn't sleep, so I went out and cleaned out my car... got into the glove box and was suprised at all the stuff in there.
a pair of gloves! I have the diver style of gloves so I can clean the car without getting chemicals like armor all etc. on my hands.
POI & Registration...
about 100 spoons,forks and knives (gotta love wendy's individually packaged flatware!)
a fold up squeegee
several screws and such from when I took apart either the door panel, or the kick panel.
three little boxes of fuses of various sizes

How about you ?

I have two small children. I'm afraid to know what they put in my glove box. But I'm sure it will start to smell.

OMG you let small children in your mercedes I'm fending off a 16 year old who thinks it should be her car At the moment her grades dont justify giving her a car but I suppose good grades and the car be cheaper then no scholarship money sigh sigh sigh

registration, owners manual, MB Guide to Diesel Stations in the USofA circa 1982 (the most important document in the car), couple of napkins, a couple of yakima lock tumblers, and a yakima 12 point wrench. My center console gets most of the junkier stuff...space which is now significantly limited by the 2 custom zebrano wood drink holders
