I use a container object where I placed the items in a specific order. Then
I called upon them using "get" method. This also gave me such advantage as
the ability to loop through several related objects without cumbersome
searching. I guess, overall, I said the same what David did - don't search,
know where you put it.

Cheers,
Pavel
