My QDB Lincoln cent book should be delivered today...

I just checked the online tracker at Barnes & Noble, and it looks like my QDB Lincoln cent book is a mere miles away from the Longacre homestead. I look forward to starting to read it tonight, with my smoking jacket and a glass of reserve wine, and then pound the boards with Lincoln cent questions come tomorrow. image [Actually, Longacre will be out of the office next week, and much to the delight of many members of these boards, I will show a marked decrease in activity until I return, refreshed, after the new year].

    Don't let the cigar smoke cling to the new book. You couldn't sell it on eBay and expect somebody to put up with the odor!

    I should be getting one any time now - I was supposed to get one as soon as they were printed, but I'm not at home to receive it. I think it's really cool that they put my name right on the front cover!

    Good to hear! That may mean that I'll see mine tomorrow or Monday.

    Thanks Longacre...

    I wrote that back in August. I'd have to read it again to remember everything I wrote. I know that's bad, but I write so much I don't remember what I wrote after a couple of months, especially as busy as I've been.
