This.

I had dinner with Jon and Bonnie last weekend and they asked how the bidding usually goes.  I said that I had seen enough interest already that indicated to me there was still a lot of bidding to come on many of the items.  They both expressed satisfaction with the decision to sell at this time and how the auction was being handled by ComicConnect.

Jon gave me a tour of what remains and, while just a tiny fraction of the original, they are all interesting pieces, many with sentimental value to him.

Mostly original art?

lol Very good. In truth more like 'Waiting for Berk' but I love the alliteration.

Just trying to keep up with the literary wordsmiths around here. Tally ho!

In my case it's ennui. I doubt I'll even bid - and even if I do, I doubt I'll win. Good luck to the rest of you, though!:foryou:

Ennui will be gone soon, look: Since I can't bid because they don't accept my credit card (Amex), I'm gonna talk with Mrs Pickie (Visa) about purchasing some fresh funny books!! :D

I send them lots of checks but they don't always appreciate the special processing performed by my bank.  Evidently they are bothered by "Insufficient Funds."

Go figure.
