The lab manual for my physics class.

Given that it's a print-on-demand book that's done on campus and the school knew how many people were enrolled in the class, I'm trying to wrap my head around the fact that they were sold out before half the class could get one.

Either they didn't order enough(people make mistakes, after all), or somebody's looking to gouge the class in a way the bookstore couldn't.  Just my 2 cents, and I could be wrong.

MIB BD Rifleman.  I think I've got about 6 of those little guys now, although this is the only one that's MIB.   ;D


I'm not sure why I didn't post it earlier, but I also bought my dad's property Monday.  It's 92 acres (70 of it wooded), with the large house he lives in, the small one I live in, plus his large workship and a few other small buildings.  That's not counting his 3 deer stands either.   ;D   I are now a Property Owner!  Which means I'm the one that gets to pay all the taxes on it at the end of the year. Yay.   #P  Well, at the end of 2014 I guess, since I didn't actually "own" it on 1 January.

Oh, I'm Sorry to hear that.  Wait until you read them, then you'll understand why I say that.  I've got 1-6, plus the Annual, and the best thing about the lot are the first 2 issues, plus all the covers.  The story and art in the first 2 are the only ones that are worthwhile, in My opinion.  The other's suck you in with the covers, then kick your feet out from under you with what's between them.  :P  I Hope the Seller didn't steal too much from you!   ;D

The following old XBox games: Predator Concrete Jungle, The Terminator: Dawn of Fate, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Turok: Evolution.  Of them all, Turok was the only one "New", still Factory Sealed, though the other 3 were Supposedly "Tested and Work", so I guess I'll find out when they arrive.   :-\   All are also Supposed to be Backwards Compatable with the 360, but I've bought a couple in the past that were on that list and couldn't get them to work.   :P

Predator: Concrete Jungle sucked.  I hope you didn't pay more than a buck or two for it.

Got the LARGE Lot of BT Crack I won recently, full of Old School Goodness!  It might not have every 'Mech from TRO 3025, but it's got most of them anyway, with 2-3 each of the Unseens.  >:D  The bad thing is, there's also bits and pieces of things in the box, that I've got NO clue what they go to.  I've even found a few lower legs and upper torsos that have me confused, not to mention various arms and miscellaneous bits.   :-\   I guess once I finish pieces together the things I know, I get to start trying to figure out the "Mystery 'Mechs"!   :D

Only "Some" minis, or Many minis?  :D  And which ones?  ???


I just bought a CD - San Patricio by The Chieftains.  They snuck it out when I wasn't looking!  :P  (Back in 2008.)  I'm also looking at getting the "Deluxe Edition" of Voice of Ages (also by The Chieftains, from 2012), but I'm waiting to hear back from the Seller.  The "Item Description" says S&H in the US is Free, but the "Shipping and Payments" tab says S&H is $3.00.   :o

Ahh, like 25 or so, from all over the place.  Mostly secondhand stuff that's been archived but quite a bit new from IWM as well. Finally saved up some enough to do some splurging.  For awhile I had everything built but about 15 or so NIB Clan mechs.  That's been rectified :)
