I will have my revenge when we next meet. My four cats already have your scent and have been instructed to meow pathetically so as to distract you while Mike and I replace all of your Dungeon Geomorphs with used Mad-libs and devalue your white boxes by writing "Maxwell loves Aneoth" on the box lid and supplement covers with green highligter. Seriously, I was extremely envious of your find. Probably a good thing that you picked them up instead of me. I spent enough money already last week. I actually hope that you keep them though. It actually might be a lot of fun to play. Maybe it will also give you something else to bid on so the rest of us might actually win some of the nicer D&D auctions.
All in all, though Mike did find some nice books and he has already listed them and sold some of them on E-Bay with BIN's. He doesn't waste a lot of time does he?

Lol as I recall you were not unhappy for me to pick them up and as I recall you pointed out the second package after I had swiftly stuffed the first one into my already growing pile of items in the corner....I was trying very hard not to allow the little guy and later on the guys pop(?) to distract me. When Mike arrive, I could tell those guys were irritating him a little ..... and I am sure that it did not help his mood much that I kept trying to get them to speak to each other.....

I doubt it has been read, and if so, then it was very carefully. As I will be. Mike, I can now see better how it is that your constant shopping and searches for little treasures in out of the way stores can be so exciting. Finding little gems at that book store was quite fun, and might very well be addictive.....They should have been mine!!!
