Found these at Goodwill today, thought they were pretty cool. They talk when you push a button, first Transformers I've found at Goodwill.

How does it feel to be beside the little kids as you both go digging for toys? Lo It used to make me feels weird but I got over the weirdness quicker than I expected

Ha ha, I do feel a bit weird about it. It seems every time I walk up and there are little kids playing with the toys, whenever I pick something up they just stare at me like I just stole something out of their little grubby hands lol.

Came across this "Lot of Boxing" on eBay.
http://www.ebay.com/itm/LOT-OF-BO...

I immediately hit the Buy it Now, and this showed up at my door earlier today:


$65 shipped for a 16 oz pair of Winning gloves? Not too shabby. They're certainly not mint or anything, but they're also not beat-up or nasty. I purchased a new 16 oz pair in black not long ago, so these will be a backup for the time being.

For context, here's a completed listing of a similar pair:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/WINNING-1...

The other stuff in the lot is mostly junk. I might keep the Windy micro mitts, but haven't yet decided. Everything else is heading straight for the trash.

Got this stuff tonight at Goodwill.



I've heard the Tiger Grip games Duke Nukem 3D is hard to find, but I don't know how true that is. Still only 99 cents, so why not? Also found this namco plug and play and starcraft shareware cd which I've never seen before. I thought it was only a download.

Got these sweet mixtapes for nothing as they were going to throw them into the trash. Some of those are rather sought after. In particular the Tape Kingz cassettes. Anyone on this site have any info on these? I checked discogs.com for some prices but would like to find out more about these.

Found a 20 dollar bill on the ground at the Gas station this morning. I have to split it 50/50 with my kid but I love finding free money.

Got surprised today with this thank you gift from friend and fellow NA member PendragonX. Thanks man!

My son... gives me Helpful Nintendo Hints that are far too complex for the adult mind to comprehend. Here's a verbatim example: "OK, there's Ganon and miniature Ganon and there's these things like jelly beans and the miniature Ganon is more powerfuller, because when you touch him the flying eagles come down and the octopus shoots red rocks and the swamp takes longer." And the hell of it is, I know he's right. - Dave Barry

Not sure yet to be honest lol. Was thinking about getting a projector and making the basement into a little home theater area but I need to shop around. They're definitely perfect for a man cave

Got these for $21 shipped on Ebay. I'm surprised because Leatherface in general goes for $25+...and that's the only reason why I bought it.

If anyone wants the other three (Freddy / Jason / Genie) let me know...
