Truefitt & Hill Traglafar Cream
Mitchells Wool Fat Bath Soap (4)

 

I just got a 320 GB laptop harddrive for my sister's laptop, and an external enclosure so that I can use her old one as an external drive. I can't believe how much drives have come down in price. I got a 320GB SATA 2.5 drive for $59!

 

How true. I remember back in the day when I added a memory chip to my IBM (remember those?) computer. I paid $160 for a 4 megabyte chip!

All that money so I could get Myst and The 7th Guest to run properly. :happy102

 

Yeah, I remember paying 2000 Austrian Schillings (145€ or 190USD) for 32MB of RAM for my 486-machine...

Awesome hauls, guys! Lots and lots of shiny razors, hard drives and incense

I got two razors today:



A very nice Dahlgren-Wedge from Eskilstuna and what looks like a never used Bengall cast-steel razor (~1820) :happy088

 

WOWWWWWWWWWWW--beautiful razors, bro--have fun with them!

 

Just showed in today's mail. The '60 Fatboy I got off the bay. Needs a little cleanup, but it's otherwise fine.

 

My new brush from Rodd

I just needed to show off my own Knotty Badger Brush from Rodd.. Its a Beauty and very well done.. the handle is slim, the knot dense.. Great for soaps..

Rodd - You da Man!!

 

I wasn't expecting this for another 4 days at least. The Virtual Village Silvertip badger brush.

 

That looks mighty nice DA! It looks like a brush I would want!

 

I got a really cool Colostomy Bag, complete with its own hoses, plastic insert, and extra disposeable bags!!

IF I have to have pictures for this thread, that could be arranged too.........

 

Started with the juice early this friday?

 

No juice for me. Doctors managed to throw a blood clot into my colon during what is supposedly balloon angioplasty. That killed off a portion of my colon, so now I am stuck with pooping through my side into a bag. It pretty much sucks, but that is the reality of it. Given the choice between crying about it, or making the best of it, I would rather laugh.

 

Here's to you Rolls !

My first Manhattan is dedicated to LL ...........................uh, Yeah. I had to go to BevMo for some bitters and ended up with all this. Supporting the economy, and all

 

Rick, too bad you were not around when I first gave up the booze. I pretty much gave away bottles of booze. Some of which cost me well over a grand!! I had bottles of limited edition Johnnie Walker, Scotch that was older than I am, and a load of other crap. And to think, it all started with me trying to break my old record.......

 

For starters, a mug I picked up earlier in the week for $5. The two Gillette packs are unopened from an antique mall in Bruceton Mills, WV. The set is from the trivia PIF from across the street. The unmarked dispenser on top is from A&P.

 

I woke up this morning, got dressed, checked da bay and found this Sweet never been used set http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&item=370156045305

 

wow. do you now have 2 cased executives? Haven't you had 4 execs go through your hands in the last 3 months? Crazy luck sir, you have crazy luck. Great score!

 

I cant even imagine what juice that costs that much would taste like..........

I dont partake a bunch, but when I do I try to make it quality :eatdrink047

.....................and this ........................No.9 is Bay Rummy. Just so's ya know. They dont give much info on the website.
