Can I go with you?

Ohhhhh yeah!
I'm crossing my fingers for you my friend.

Unfortunately I'm 2600 miles away from Outback. I can't be there physically, but I will be there with him in spirit!

If I leave right now maybe I can beat you to it lol!!!

It is the same place, if ya wanna give it a go. But I doubt it'll be like the last haul. Sounds like its just a couple. But they have some others their bringing in, when I come in this weekend.

I'm kind of a preferred customer, so I receive first dibs, so to say. But wouldn't that be a hoot, if lighting did strike twice.

Might have to go to church, and repent my sins.

Mike..........Church...............Repent......... ....Seriously...............

Many a moon ago I worked with a little lady who was quite 'proper' and every once in awhile I'd pop off with something that would pull her chain and she'd say; "You need to go to Confession" then turn and walk away. Well one day I'd pulled her chain with a joke and she again told me I needed to go to Confession and I said; Polly, I used to go to Confession every week.

She stopped, turned around and came back and said; "I didn't know that you were Catholic". I said; "Oh I'm not--but I used to sit outside of the Confessional and the girls that stayed in the longest I'd ask out.

She didn't find any humor in it but it really made my day to see the look on her face. Damn I miss that old gal.

Hopefully it's a nice haul! Every once in a while I stumble upon one of those, this summer I got 7 razors plus a Coticule for $45 in a place that has been devoid of razors for years....Right place, right time and first shot at them (20 razors total)

You never did tell us the name and address of the store.(just to prove that is really exists )

I almost spit Mountain Dew all over my keyboard while reading this.
