  Better change the subject line before some YN wanders in and asks if that is where baby balloons come from.

  You're just lucky he didn't name the balloons and label them "Russ" and "Marty"

  Re: Slabbed coins - There are some coins that LIVE within clear plastic and wear their labels with pride... while there are others that HIDE behind scratched plastic and are simply dragged along by a label. Then there are those coins that simply hang out, naked and free
