Whitman is the “official” supplies seller, but not “exclusive”. It means Whitman gets a more visible location. Both places are selling MegaRed 8. Wonder if there’s a price diff.

VKurtB Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Michael Shutterly, Esq. won my door prize contribution for the SOB(N) meeting, the bottle of 1792 Small Batch bourbon. It will NOT be the last thing he wins here. Awesome exhibitor. Hoghead515 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VKurtB Posted August 18, 2022 Author Share Posted August 18, 2022 Well, I’ve officially become a drinking lightweight. One glass of Argentine red wine at dinner, and ONE gin and tonic (Bombay Sapphire) and my butt was kicked. Falklands War drinking. Brits vs. Argentines.

If it's blank, it might be caused by a power outage. (Jeffersonville was once a large trading town. It is now more of a blink-you-missed-it place --- kinda like personal freedom for women in some backward places. Blinked. Missed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VKurtB Posted August 23, 2022 Author Share Posted August 23, 2022 Rarity has been reduced from a 10 point criterion to a 5 point criterion. The rarest piece is used for scoring. 5 points for unique to 10 known. 4 points for 11-100 known. 3 points for 101-1000 known. 2 points for 1000-10000 known. 1 point for 10001 and more known. So effectively, you are at a 4 point deficit to extremely rare material, not 9 as it has been. Previously the ancient coin R scale system was used.

Alot of our state backroads are very rough. Alot of our county maintained roads look like goat paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
