    WOW!

    Cleaning up the garage last month and I came upon some of my old Stephen King books. Several of them are first edition hard covers.

    Well thanks to the big ol interweb I found out that some of them are quite valuable. My first edition Carrie is selling for $2500. Others I have are worth between 250-500.

    I even have the original paperback versions of the Bachman books and not the one that was compiled together. The rarest one of them is Rage and it's selling for $750. The other three range in price from 80-250.
    When I die, please don't let my wife sell my camera equipment for what I told her I paid for it.

    they'll be so thankful...

    my kids can fight over 1000 (expected to grow much larger) progressive rock concerts!!

    Are you considering dying fairly soon?

    Eb, just a thought...

    If it was called "progressive" rock back in the 70's, can you really still call it "progressive" ?

    I'm sure that buggy whips were progressive at one time, but now they're just quaint.
