Got a check for $205. In the Grand scheme of things it isn't much. But in Daves world it's pretty good. My Sister took $120.
Gets my "mad money" back up to an even $200. Should be a Canon 40D out there for that....

How many SquarePegs does it take to refold a 24” round reflector? I don’t know it’s never been done.

Number of square pegs to fold 43” reflector = number of SquarePeg to fold 24” reflector squared

. I'll speaking with him tonight to finalize the deal,

Sure you know this but there were some problems around our part of the country, with people getting robbed of valuables when they met prospective buyers to complete transactions.

Yes. I always meet in public places. The lobby of our police department is open for these types of transactions, so that will be our likely meeting spot.

@SquarePeg I have one of those large round reflectors that has a spring wire around the exterior. If you carefully reach over the top, grab the opposite edge pull toward you while twisting each hand in opposite directions and you're lucky it will magically coil into a nice neat little package. If you're not lucky it will become a man eating monster from which there is no escape.

After 3 YouTube videos and 4 new curse words, it’s done. Going to have to practice with that before I take it out anywhere.

Thought for a minute coming into the middle of this it sounded like somebody was trying to put away a pup tent, and there was a geometry lesson going. Yeah, it's a Friday, I think it's time for the week to be done.

It supposedly is warming up but I see little to no snow melting yet. Getting nice and sunny at least.

Our city’s police station has that too. I used it for most of my Nikon gear sales. Great way to weed out the jerks and make the legit buyers and sellers comfortable. I had a few supposedly local people that disappeared as soon as I said that was the only place I’d meet.

Local police out here have set up benches/tables/rooms inside stations for Craigslist type of transaction.

@ Terri: Hey, we just hit by a bit of an earthquake. Got Maggie all startled up. Glad you're not here.

That makes two of us, bub.



Glad everyone's okay - Miss Maggie has probably already forgotten about it!

@Gary A. I grew up in the Bootheel of Missouri, 25 miles or so from the New Madrid Fault line. Tremors were a pretty regular occurrence, occasionally they would be strong enough to knock items off of shelves, but I can only remember one occasion where I actually saw the ground roll. It scared the **&* out of me, as a teen I thought the world was coming to an end. Fortunately as quickly as it happened, it was over. I'll pass on the earthquakes, at least with the tornadoes most times you see them coming, giving you a running chance.

No big deal, the house had a slight shake, Mary Lou, Maggie and Gary looked at each other ... then it was over. No big deal.
