    Somebody offered him more money for it.



    No, they sent it, and I tracked it, and it was going good until it hit New Jersey and that's where it got lost.

    Damn New Jersey.


    I own a T shirt that says New Jersey is the greatest country in the world.


    Hahaha oh boy...  :))

    Reminds me of a South Park episode


    The T shirt was a gift from Stephanie, who used to post a lot to the GMB.  She was born and raised in New York, but now lives across the river in New Jersey.  But one reason why she chose that T shirt for me was that I'm a big fan of Daphne and Celeste who (of course) came from New Jersey.

    Here's my recent purchase. (Sorry for the messy room!) it's my polaroid land camera department sign and I.

    I paid $400 for it on ebay. The sign lights up when you plug it in. I'm a Polaroid enthusiast. I still use and collect Polaroid cameras as of today, it all first started in 2007 and i've been hooked ever since. I've taken over 1000 polaroids. Crazy, right?

    Wow, interesting hobby and what a monster sign!

    Not a "latest purchase" - in fact far from it... but I was given a polaroid camera in 1973, and I still have some of the snaps. Here's a scan of one - taken at school. Hilarious hairstyles!

    1973?! I didn't even exist yet. :) Those are amazing hairstyles. Sometimes when I purchase old cameras online i discover found polaroids in suitcases that look a lot like that. It's pretty awesome!  I was given my first Polaroid camera in 2000. I used it a few times and then forgot about it. It wasn't until April of 2007 that I fell back in love with it. Out of all the polaroids i've taken so far, this is my favorite.

    It was taken with Artistic time zero film on a Polaroid sx70 (it's of Seal rock, in San Francisco)

    Yesterday, I decided to buy the French DVD of The Ghost Ship (1943).  So, I went to the website of the company who produce the DVD (Editions Montparnasse).  When I attempted to purchase it directly from them, I received an error message saying that they didn't have the rights to distribute it in my territory.  So, I went to Amazon.fr, who sold me a copy without a quibble.

    Crazy, isn't it! These are the same companies who will often make comment about piracy etc then knock people back when they wave willingness & real money at them. as a business model it really is outdated in this 'small world' we have now.....

    Came home from work with loads of packets of Fringed white tulips and Black Parrot Tulips, they had just been delivered and I missed them last autumn.

    :) They are beautiful......tulips i any form are my favourite flower. Simple beauty but I love how they misbehave and do what they want to in a vase. These are the ones.
