I'm fed up. Thinking of giving it all away...

OchoReales · November 10, 2010 8:53AM

NOT!!! just wanted to see if everyone is still alive and awake around here!

FilthyBroke · November 10, 2010 9:01AM

No, you're probably right. You could at least try it and see if it makes you feel better.

A giveaway isn't a bad idea, now that I think about it.

Some of us are still awake here, but it sure has slowed lately.

canadacolornut · November 10, 2010 9:12AM

Jolt!!!

Zohar · November 10, 2010 10:03AM

Extremely slow. I feel lonely. Where have all the good guys gone?

Walter · November 10, 2010 10:06AM

So how does this work? I message you my address? Who pays for postage?

wybrit · November 10, 2010 10:59AM

Thank you for entering me in your giveaway!

olmanjon · November 10, 2010 11:35AM

Where is Laurent? Where is Lord M? The temp is in the 40's where I live so everyone around here should be inside-playing with there coins and reading this forumn. I'm here! Where is everyone else? Oh. By the way-enter me in your giveaway also.

Sadly, I really am moving toward selling off my collection... just no time or money for it lately.

But at least, even with so many of us gone yeti, we still have more posts in a day than most other coin forums do in a week

OchoReales · November 10, 2010 12:14PM

Okay. When I get back from my vacation/ministry opportunities (South America, a ver la familia de mi esposa), it will be time for me to do my first giveaway. I already have an idea of how to structure it. It will take place in January so, I hope you all can last that long. Heck, you've been putting up with me for the last year and 9 months so be patient for my JANUARY GIVEAWAY! Stay tuned!

worldcoinguy · November 10, 2010 4:19PM

I hear you..... I agree with olmanjon - its coin time. The weather outside it cold and rainy in this part of the world so its time to do some trading/sellling/buying.

Zohar, how do I apply for a good guy license?

tonyhar · November 10, 2010 4:26PM

It is raining hard and blowing a storm force gale here. There will not be many customers in the shop today!

Eric, you're doing the right thing at your age. Just make sure to keep one or two mementos, from coins you like too much, or from members' gifts, that will lure you back just before you hit middle age. That's the way it goes, and when you come back, hopefully, some of us will still be breathing.

I wain interests in one area of numismatics - lately ancients and USA stuff, and move on to some other to start madly accumulating items like there will be no tomorrow. I never lose interests in numismatics - just vary them.

Zohar · November 10, 2010 10:28PM

<< Zohar, how do I apply for a good guy license? >>

1) Need to login to this forum 3 times during the day
2) Need to rush home to get the mail
3) Need to always spend that extra dollar on that "great opportunity" when it becomes available (every other week).

That should do it.

ajaan · November 10, 2010 11:45PM

I know many still lurk, just don't post much. Times are tough and things to do. If I really don't have anything constuctive, in my opinion, to add I don't post. Although, it's been years since we've had a good thread hi-jacking . . .

OchoReales · November 10, 2010 11:58PM

<< Although, it's been years since we've had a good thread hi-jacking . . . >>

Don, does this qualify as a hi-jacking?!?

ajaan · November 11, 2010 12:03AM

Gary, let me think about it.

Anyone having nice weather? Supposed to be in the high 50s today and 60s tomorrow, both days with sun. Pretty nice for Nov 11th in Western NY. Probably will put up the Christmas light up today. I'm sick of putting the damn things up when it's snowing and my fingers are freezing.

OchoReales · November 11, 2010 12:11AM

Mid 70's in S. Fla. today. The sun is shining amd I'm off to do a bit of Biblical Counselling.

PS. Consider this thread hi-jacked!

ajaan · November 11, 2010 12:20AM

I'm off to rake leaves. Actually I mulch them with the lawnmower. Haven't raked in years.

You have my address, right? I figure I have about 30-40 bags for you to fill.......depending on the wind direction.

ajaan · November 11, 2010 6:53AM

I charge by the leaf Mac.

I live in the country, so I let Mother Nature do her own raking.

wybrit · November 11, 2010 1:32PM

As for raking, that was another nice trade I made when moving to CO. In MN, the leaves get almost as deep as the snow.

ajaan · November 11, 2010 9:27PM

No snow here yet.

We saw Bill Nye the other night. He gave a talk at Buffalo State. Great speaker and thinker. If you ever get the chance to see him, I recommend you do so. It was only $8/ticket, the best deal ever.

santelia · November 12, 2010 9:13AM

Ajaan - gorgeous day in WNY. I decided to play hooky from work at lunchtime and took the dog out into the woods this afternoon. Scared up a 6 point buck and doe.
I haven't worked on the collection in a while - my kids are teenagers now and money is going to guitar lessons, field trips, etc. Haven't posted to the forum in quite a while. When the old computer blew up I lost all the old bookmarks and my whole internet browsing routine.

ajaan · November 21, 2010 11:00AM

Cleaning leaves out of gutters. Fun Wow!

spinaker2000 · November 23, 2010 5:45AM

SO!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's come to chatting about the weather on here. I can say the weather here in Piedmont NC has been awesome. The best real fall weather we have had in years. The campground took in nearly $10,000 in Oct so we have been very busy.( haganstonepark.com). The band only has one more show booked this year, also been very busy, and i'm looking forward to the holidays off. I have been lurking weekly or so and getting jabs in at ajaan as often as possible. Miss all you guys and sorry to here about the members we have lost this year. If you are ever in the area look me up at the park.

I'm fed up. Thinking of giving it all away...
