The creators of the program “HOARDERS” are searching the entire country for a home or property packed with anything and everything and a recipient who does not have the resources to clean it up on their own for a new television program that will assist someone overwhelmed by a big mess and help them dig out, clean up, and salvage some of the valuable items and have them appraised for you!

No job is too big or too filthy—and we’ll do it for free!!!

We’ll send a team of extreme cleaners to tackle the clean-up and help the recipient of our help dig out from a mess that has become too overwhelming.

People who might be perfect for this show:

• Someone who collects things or has a shopping addiction and it’s taken over their life

• Children of the aging parents or deceased who need to clean out their loved ones home or relocate them, but can’t afford to

• A divorced couple who needs to divide their possessions

• Someone who’s house or property has become inhabitable due to clutter and lack of maintenance and is about to be condemned by the health department

• Someone who’s business, house, or property has been severely damaged by a fire, storm or flood, and there is a high volume of soiled debris to remove

Please pass this message onto someone who you feel could benefit from a television program like this.

TIMELINE: We would like to tape this program right away and need to locate a recipient for the clean up before Christmas

30^th Anniversary of A Confederacy of Dunces

John Kennedy Toole’s Pulitzer Prize winning novel, A Confederacy of Dunces, was published in 1980, eleven years after the author’s suicide at age 32. Ignatius Reilly, Toole’s “slob extraordinary,” is considered one of the most original and hilarious characters in American literature.

UL & Ken Toole

Toole was an Instructor in English at UL (SLI) from 1959 to 1960. His Ignatius Reilly is based on another UL English professor–the late Bobby Byrne. The film is dedicated to the memory of Patricia Rickels, a friend and colleague of Ken Toole, and she is featured in the film. UL faculty members Charles Richard, Marcia Gaudet, and Maurice DuQuesnay worked with Sanford on the film. Joel Fletcher—son of a UL President and a friend of Toole—is featured in the film.
