CATRICK'S CORNUCOPIA is CLOSED. 2 2

[catrick339]

That's it for this afternoon.  I ***may*** be back this evening, but there's a bottle of Lagavulin 16 year single malt 
in the cupboard, and my beloved remembered to pick up a bottle of club soda and a fresh lemon, 
so I may be indulging in  a series of remarkably good scotch-and-sodas instead,

[catrick339]

(Pokes head in)

Well, I opted for the single malt.

I'll put up the other dozen or so books tomorrow, and I DID  find a couple more slabs.  More inexpensive books tomorrow, plus a Conan 1, 4.5, and a Star Wars 68 newsstand, 7.5.

See you all midday tomorrow!

*slurp*

Ahh! My favorite single malt from my favorite lowboy glass.

Bought it for a quarter at a church rummage sale and the church ladies laughed and laughed when I told them I was going to use it to drink scotch.

The Thing 30

Amazing Spider-Man 256
First appearance of Puma

Another out of the batch of Spideys that got the 9.8's, I think this might pull the same, but  I didn't want to pay the fast track on this one.
If you have ten or twelve months to spare it would be a good candidate for a slab.

Asking $30
