It's here! Auction Catalogs
 
Posted By: <b>JudgeDred2</b><p>I still enjoy getting auction catalogs in the mail, UPS or FedEx. The Mastro catalog showed up today. Whether it's a Mastro, REA, Lipset, Sloate or whomevers catalog, I still get a kick out of it. Just out of curiosity, when do most people find time to thumb through a catalog?:<br /><br /><ol><br /><li>On the can<br /><li>Before going to bed<br /><li>In the office (at work) <br /><li>While the significant other is watching TV (usually some garbage that you just can't sit through)<br /></ol><br /><br />

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>Good one David <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14> I do three of the four, but for the life of me can't figure out what I did with my bedpan. I actually read the catalogs at my desk, and occasionally while watching TV. But they vary in size- mine makes an excellent bookmark when you have to take a break from reading Mastro's!

Posted By: <b>DJ</b><p>Two for me. <br /><br />I still can't figure out why all these auctions happen at once. We have nothing for several months, then BAM. I received my fifth catalog today and I think there are three more en route. <br /><br />DJ

My bookmark was your catlog. <br /><br />The Doctor saw the book and asked what I was reading and asked what the "thing with pretty looking baeball cards" was. I ended up giving him the catlog, so you may have a new bidder.

Posted By: <b>barrysloate</b><p>That's a good story. I don't think too many of my catalogs are saved.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>Barry, Nietzsche said his ultimate goal was to fit an entire book into one <br />sentence. A bookmark would be enough for a few books plus the grocery list.<br /><br />The average person is more likely to keep an out of date gas station map than an<br />out of date Sears catalog.
