I like old stuff. I like the idea of getting old stuff not for me.. but for the boys.

I have a love ffor electronics too. I'm all about new toys. - GPS, Laptop, Jabba talker for my cellphone, etc etc... I just hate buying it online because I want to have it in my hands.

The bad thing about winter carnival stuff is that unless I goto a show this is the only place I can get it.

Hey you can live a month without eating.

I'm just talking about eating lots of bread and some of the outside plants. I would never make my kids go without food. :-)

I've got a Hook 'Em Cow commemorative book around here some place.  I think it's from the '30's.  Maybe I could get something for that on Ebay?  The Hook 'Em Cows were a pretty big part of the carnival years ago, back when the yards were still in SSP.

I do too. I like immediate gratification, but the prices online are so much better than retail.

I don't like it either.

I ran to FedEx last night to pick up my MP3 player.

I couldn't wait until Monday to get it.

Yes, before your time.  They were kind of like the little Hilex guys.  Popular in their time but no more.

I would be the same way...usually the price difference from buying it online versus going to the store and having it my hands is justifiable to me:)

I love getting mail! I love getting packages. I usually forget what I buy on EBay so when it comes its like getting a Christmas present -the best part is the thrill of getting something that I really wanted. The anticipation is so high and there is no let down that it is something stupid that I didnt want. unlike opening presents from my mom of things she wanted not what I wanted.
