yea, what's up with them even starting on Thursday up here. At ours, my wife sold more on Friday than any other day. Shouldn't most people be at work?

Electrical Engineers do it on impulse, with faster rise times, with more power, and less resistance at higher frequencies, without shorts, until it Hertz

THANK YOU!!!  That's what we think!  I would lose money if I stayed home to yard sale instead of going to work.

Hm, I'll have to get a book list together.  I know there's some Dan Brown stuff, John Grisham, Michael Crighton, etc.

As for wedding stuff, I have my wedding dress, veil, hair piece, crinoline, shoes, lots of vases/centerpiece mirrors, china-looking fancy plastic plates, wedding planning books/magazines, ribbon, tulle, aisle runner/rectangular table covers, etc.  I won't have the wedding dress out the day of the yard sale to protect it, but if she's interested in it just PM me.

Hope you haven't left yet...we don't have many textbooks left!  (Although we have pretty much everything else...apparently Labor Day weekend was not the best timing.)  :laugh:

Yeah...Ohio is weird like that.  Where we come from...the women have jobs and don't have 3-day yardsales!  :laugh: 

I don't know why people would do this for 3 days anyway.  We were up until 2am last night getting everything staged...then back up at 5am to put it all outside.  Then...sitting here staring at stuff we want to get rid of for half a day...yeah...no thanks.  I couldn't imagine doing this for 3 days straight. 

Oh, and lemme tell ya...the people watching was by FAR the most interesting aspect of it all.  We had some real winners.

Everything's good...thanks for asking...just was a bit under the weather.  We did ok...money-wise, it was worth it...I just wish it was all gone.  Now it's just packing it all back up...that's the worst!  Most stuff is off to Goodwill...the rest is for a friend's yard sale in a few weeks.

Anyone interested in a 40/55g stand?  I'll post pictures later.
