I am still looking for a dealer with .25 cent bins without traveling 100 miles.
Have yopu tried the store in Bethlehem? The owner is alwayes re-stocking the bargin boxes. Last week I picked up a Deathmate gold for .33 cents.
No I'll have to check it out. Only been to the ones in Reading and Lancaster plus some of the flea markets around. Thanks JM :thumb:

I bought some beer at a Texaco (in Texas, of course) and even paid with my Texaco card (you do that sort of thing in college, right?).

So after I paid, this Eastern European type 30-ish woman working there asked me and my buddy "You vant sex for that?"

I said "Huh?"

She said "Sex. For dee beer."

I said "Can I just put that on the card, too?"

She said "Sex. To carry dee beer vith."

Me: "Oh, sacks. Uh, no."

So you are saying that people like you won't let those books be destroyed? There was an article written a little while ago that several thousand books were being sent to France for some reason and the museum that got them was going to destroy them!! I'll see if I can find it if I get a chance.

Did you know that it's illegal to take a Wizzerd in public, but it's perfectly legal to take a Deathmate in public? :think:
