    With the amount of these things laying around, future generations will no doubt think that we used them as a form of currency.

    In 10,000 years companies like PCGS will be slabbing those bloody things... image

    good one Steve!

    Brian found this place for bottle digging and I decided to stop by to visit him (I'm not a bottle digger but I have fun watching the stuff he digs up). While I was looking around at the dirt, I asked him if he'd mind if I detect the dirt he was piling up. He gave me the go-ahead, and when I found that old-style pull-tab in cement, I really started cracking up! I threw it to Brian and said "you know you're having a bad day when..." image We're usually joking, jabbing, and telling stories when we meet up, so this was another funny one.
