As a favor to my father-in-law last night I plowed through several hundred 30's through 80's lightside nickles that were nothing special, putting them in 2x2's for him with dates, mintmarks, and grades-it was mind numbing! This morning I look wan and tired, dispirited, IQ quotient feeling diminished; somehow...contaminated. image I feel like I need cleansing and scouring.image

    Laurent at least you get to handle coins... My father-in-law is convinced I know everything about being online. Since he knows almost nothing and the phone line he uses to *get* online is the same one, we spend whole days going back and forth, "no, no, look for the row of buttons in Yahoo and find one marked 'forward'..."

    "well, I'll look when I get back on..."


    And your wife is listening to the tone in your voice after six-seven hours of this... image Good thing I really like him! image
