Extremely Disappointed With The Sheriff of Homerun Hall's Existential Review

I sent my coin in to be reviewed by The Sheriff of Homerun Hall himself and I got back this letter:

"Your coin is a petrified cow chip, but what does it matter? We are but food for worms on this madly spinning orb. What difference could it possibly make what I think of your coin? All is for nothing. I sit and ponder the futility of effort."

--The Sheriff of Homerun Hall


I want a refund!

    That's worth the $10 as far as I'm concerned - and he's right you know...

    Clank,

    I think you made that whole thing up.

    ROTFLMAO!!!!! At least I got a PM back, telling me my coin was only a frankie, not worthy of a review!image
    It is not exactly cheating, I prefer to consider it creative problem solving!!!

    Dragon--

    How could you even think that?

    And as far as it being worth the $10, the "Existential Review" costs $40!!! You have to pay more for nothing. Still worth it?????

    Well it appears you at least knew how to submit for this service and as promised you did get the HRH note. image

    His sig alone should be worth the $10.00 image

    << <i>But did he change the grade???? >>



    He had the grade taken off and "VOID" put on the label.

    Is that a pedigree?

    Clankeye your literary arrow hit at the heart of the matter, "what difference could it possibly make what I think of your coin?"

    Sir Clunky, I thinks this was in jest.

    But it would be worth it to get Davids autograph.image
    The President claims he didn't lie about taxes for those earning less then $250,000 a year with public mandated health insurance yet his own justice department has said they will use the right of the government to tax when the states appeals go to court.

    What? You think I make things up? There's absolutely no precedent to say that about me!

    Look at the bright side, MD. He didn't have your disembodied head catapulted over the walls of Coinalot. Be mindful of small favors.

    You mean The Sheriff?

    He was large man, with a thunderous laugh. Use to delight in tormenting the citizens of Coinalot... Ah, those were the days.

    The Sheriff of HRH has taken on a Shakesperean attitude to answer to Clankeye the Bard of Coinalot. Maybe Sir David will grace us with a story in shakesperean rhyme this coming Monday.image

    That ol' Sheriff puts things back into perspective for us. Too bad he charges, but therapy is expensive, as Dr. Dpoole well knows. image

    Is this an impeachable offense?. I demand that we hold hearings on this immediatly. , better yet, is there a vice-presidential review for a smaller fee? lol
