Did I mention the new shop location?

The shop moved "Up Town" to the high rent district. This location even has indoor plumbing and a elevator.

    If that shop is the one in St George, the most comments heard at the gun show last weekend was the shop was seldom open.
    The most money I made are on coins I haven't sold.

    Got quoins?

    So you're only open two days a week now?

    Also, the sign location is perfect- if people are 150 feet tall.

    The image was photoshopped... it's appropriate considering the dedication.

    I agree. No way is the real ghost of Jesus 25 feet tall...

    Jaw, couldn't be. Otherwise we'd see him fumbling the football.

    For those that don't know or don't remember;

    Two days before Thanksgiving, 2003, Jordan opened the doors to Allgood Coin at around 10 a.m., just as he had done almost every day for the previous seven years. Just after noon, a man who appeared to be a customer entered the shop. Police doubt whether Jordan even had a chance to see him. But the store's security cameras saw everything.

    The cameras watched as the man, wearing a disguise, pulled out a handgun immediately after stepping foot into Allgood Coin. He quickly walked toward Jordan, who was standing behind the counter. Then, without any warning, the robber opened fire, hitting Jordan in the chest.

    As Jordan dropped to the floor, seriously wounded, the gunman moved behind the counter and handcuffed him. Then, the thief cleaned out the safe, stepped over his bleeding victim, and headed for the door. Jordan was able to call 911 and give a brief description of the suspect. He died there before Police or EMS arrived. Two suspects (Todd Wayne Mulder & Daniel Robert Campbell) were eventually arrested and convicted and are serving what are likely life sentences at the Utah State Prison.

    Such a sad story. So many bad things happen to good people. Congrats on your new store though.

    At least in Utah justice means real justice and not some p---- slap on the wrist like a lot of states give these days.

    Yep, most recent execution was by firing squad. (Seriously)

    That's to be the last one isn't it? Didn't they change the law to eliminate the "Gary Gilmore" option?

    If they had given GG a lethal injection, would we still remember his name today?
