Cheers and good luck with the bidding. Looks like I might work overtime this month.

Funny that you say that -- I was trying to understand why Rob would go to the expense of putting something like this out as it has to be exorbitant and, after all, the catalog has the same info in it as does the website. But I agree, there's some sort of significant psychic value of having this giant book. I actually received two this year and I was thrilled to get the second one, of course so that I can leave one of them outside of the bathroom.
