danglen · February 17, 2006 9:02AM

Just curious...

danglen · February 17, 2006 9:03AM

I guess it was because I wasn't logged in....DOH

Geez! Sounds like something I would do.

I like the new logo, Dan!

danglen · February 17, 2006 10:21AM

<< I like the new logo, Dan! >>

Thanks Rob. By the way, I have had the pleasure of meeting both your uncle and cousin here in Black Mountain! You should consider moving back here

P.S. I would have PMd you, but Dimitri would have yelled at me

You have restored my confidence that I too can rise to new levels of mediocrity not seen since the Millard Fillmore Administration...

<< not seen since the Millard Fillmore Administration >>

Wait a minute there coinkat. Millard Filmore is held in high esteem in this area.

coinkat · February 17, 2006 11:18AM

I am truly sorry... did I spell Fillmore incorrectly?

I thought Martin Van Buren, TR and of course FDR...were the most remembered from your state. Regrettably, we are not able to include Thomas E. Dewey... and as much as I would like to take credit for running for President as a "No Nothing"... your man beat me to it...

See these OT threads can be entertaining...

Aethelred · February 17, 2006 11:23AM

It is sad that Al Smith has been looked over in this thread!

ajaan · February 17, 2006 11:27AM

Fillmore is burried in Buffalo, lived in East Aurora (Fisher-Price) and he was president of the University of Buffalo.

PS, you spelled it correctly, I typed it incorrectly.

Funny you should mention my uncle, Dan. I just got off the phone with him. He's rather new to the collecting game but is more of an accumulator, coinwise. He mentioned he was buying a Charlotte Mint $5 for around $5K, and that knocked my socks off. I had some reservations, though, since I have been sort of his numismatic "scout", and I don't want him to get burned. When he said who he was buying from, though, I felt better about it.

Just bought and sold two more pieces that will go directly to him, including a nice ICG AU58 Byzantine gold solidus from the 7th century! I look forward to seeing that one. I can say I owned it, briefly, but it will soon pass out of my hands without my ever seeing it (at least until my next NC trip).

William McKinley also had a soft place in his heart for Buffalo

I think I better go sit in corner awhile for that one.

ajaan · February 17, 2006 11:38AM

<< William McKinley also had a soft place in his heart for Buffalo >>

It's kind of amazing. We have McKinley High School, McKinley parkway, McKinley Mall and a bunch of other McKinley named things. I would have thought we might have wanted to forget he met his fate here.

AETHELRED:

I completely agree and I must be held accountable for my actions... Has anyone out there ever heard Al Smith either on film, record or taped? Seriously... the man sounded very tough... Edward G. Robinson did not sound as tough as Al Smith... and that heavy and harsh sound hurt him in rural America, but Smith carried the largest urban areas and really has been given appropriate credit for bringing urban areas into what would become the New Deal coalition formulated by FDR. It should be noted that FDR and Smith broke off and their friendship was never the same after FDR became President. Smith endorsed Landon in 1936... okay this was OT... NEXT we can deal with Stanley Baldwin if it helps...

Why is it that when I post an insightful thread on NCLTs it quickly dissapears into oblivion, but when I screw up the thread keeps coming back to the top? Enquiring minds want to know........

Your screw-ups make the rest of us feel better about ourselves.

Because ajaan wants to pad his post count.

<< Because ajaan wants to pad his post count. >>

I've already reached 10,000. Don't need to do that.
