Clear the area of sharp things, knives, etc. Flip the breaker switch on the garbage disposal.

Mr. Weasel, you'd better wanna sit down:

One of ten in a lot won for $53.10... (Mostly VG to F)

Basically, I bought this for $5.31 cents - or $53.31, and got 9 free! Either way works for me. Don't get all excited; you've seen the dogs I've picked up along the way too! The patience required to survive eBay with your sanity intact is indescribable!

Mr. Daniel: When can I start? Is Portsmouth expensive?

... Then goes and buys a nice new old stock Whitman folder for $9.00 and spills acetone all over it! My genius is very sporadic! (Don't try to clean paper with acetone, by the way. Had to buy another one.)

Thanks, Whitman! My OCD is doing back flips just about now. Did you need 37 slots? Four in the first row - only, to taunt me and remind me that I'm never going to be filthy rich enough to stick a 1916 SLQ in a cardboard folder. Because... I can.

Plus, the folder I ruined was P, D, S. The replacement is P, S, D. Who does that?! It's like when foreigners say "pepper and salt"! (Which is correct in German.)

Lest we forget, I actually handled (and sold) this little "blast-white" gem at one time in the not-too-distant past. There is a part of my collection that only comes out on Halloween!

My real father was a Ferengi.

Whitman and I have had our disagreement and gone separate ways long ago. For my SLQs I went to a coin show and bought a used Dansco for 5.00. Now one of these days I MIGHT get around to try filling it!

23. Never take the last coin, but be sure to get the rest

"Savvy", please! And if only every transaction held such pleasant surprises!"

And it's like an exquisite salmon pâté; everyone raves about it; but no one will date bite into it. She's been snubbed a few times now at auction and shows.

Maybe if I spray it with Windex and bake it in the oven for a while. Those seem to sell quite well online! KIDDING!!!! Don't anyone reading this DARE!!!
