'Lessons'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Gus--I ran the fellow's name (which I'm not comfortable sharing on the interbunny considering I don't even know him, despite his being a neighbor) but got no hits.
The estate sale gargoylelady was loathe to give up the tapes before the end of the sale (roughly 2 hours). I left a note for the gentleman and will anticipate his call.
Stay tuned.
Yup, I'm a chick. Just for clarification purposes, you know.
OK. If you need to bid the tapes, to close out Gargoyle!Lady, and feel good about things, I'll cover like $50 on that account.
If this all turns out bogus, of course, the $50 and the shipping are coming back to me in smoochies.
I insist on this last point.
Holy crap! Two solid months of 10-hour days, 7 days a week, to clear the Going-to-the-Sun road in Glacier National Park.
(Um. Deserved the "holy crap!" but not two of them.)
We'll have to establish the value of an individual smooch. I see some math coming on...
No worries on the bid. A) No one will even ask about the stoopid box before the end of the sale and B) Dammit, he said free. I'm holding him to it...in a very nice, quite refined way, of course.
Plus? I think there may be more than 20 tapes, on reinspection. And, if I have to speak to the guy, I can ask where the tapes came from.

Who can put a dollar value on a smootch?
Don't answer that. You will make beej seem mercantile with her affections. As for me, my smooches are $50 per bunch.
Where 'bunch' = n?
Where bunch == "mmmmm"!
You win. I am no match for your linguistic gymnatics.
I'm only conceding cuz I'm very nap-needing. Otherwise? I am like ZORRO with my clever words.
Okay, maybe not. And hey? A nap sounds like a great idea.
I'll be in touch if Mssr. Mystery Felicity Connection rings.
Sure. Nap. I'll just be over here cursing my obsessive need to respond to posts, and drafting sixteen versions of the ebay post.
It's all good. Sleep well.
Why are things more exciting on broadcast television?
Fox is airing the Star Wars Trilogy (complete with goofy retcon edits), I missed all but the end of Star Wars, and the tapes of the original films are sitting five FEET from the vcr and yet...
I'm such a dork.
