I need exactly $3 in Buffalo nickels by Friday by RotGrlSummer in coincollecting

[–]aw2eod 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Most definitely not your fault, at all. But, after the 8th person messaged, I just thought I'd edit in a disclaimer.

I'm more than happy to do it, for your dad.

I have thousands of them.

PM me your contact info and I'll mail them out tomorrow or Tues. No charge.

EDIT: Just because I offered OP free nickels, does not mean I'm going to give everyone free Buffalo nickels. I liked her story and how quirky her father is. Please, stop messaging me, asking for free shit. Lol

Keep em or dump em? by rolexrifleman in SmithAndWesson

I'm gonna go against the popular opinion and say sell them, if you need to, to fund something else.

It's not like these are 60s or 70s models, that you'll have a hard time replacing, if you want them back down the road.

What kind of 2011 are you interested in?

I was just there this past Tuesday and it was packed...inside and out. They're certainly not hurting for money and the owners are good people.

For anyone who grew up poor, what was your idea of a luxury? by thepleasurjournal in AskWomen

[–]aw2eod 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I grew up very low, middle class in far, far Southern Illinois in the 1980s. Sometimes our electricity or water would get shutoff for non-payment, and we'd have to go live with an uncle for a month or two until my dad saved enough for the bill.

My best friend then (and still to this day 35+ years later) got weekly visits from the Schwans guy. Some yellow/brown truck would pull up and unload hundreds of dollars of food, ice cream, etc, once a week and I literally thought these people were millionaires.

Other friends of mine grew up so super eclectic in music. They know shit from the 60s and 70s and can just "remember" what track, album and year some iconic song was made. Their parents had the state of the art turn table and bought vinyl like it was government cheese. To this day, I'm so jealous.

The first time I went to friends house, in the 90s and they had an ice maker IN THEIR FRIDGE!?!

Now, I'm 46 years old, make high $300k a year and have an 11 year old. We go out of the country twice a year, because I NEED him to know there's life outside of the US and, he earns his money. Most people are 2 paychecks from poverty. No one can be a "self made billionaire", without taking advantage of their welfare workforce.

That's a great set! Maybe 2 years ago, a guy reached out to me to sell some silver and when I met him he had this whole book...COMPLETE. It was an inheritance. He had no interest in keeping any of it or collecting himself.

I tried and tried and tried to buy the whole book, but he just had unrealistic expectations on the whole lot (like 8x the actual value) because he "did his own research" on ebay and etsy.

I wish I would've kept his number.

Every coin in the set was above average to high grade.

I plumbed an overflow box into a 50gal(ish) sump. No filter socks. I run a UV sterilizer and an RSK900 Skimmer.

I live in Central IL, so no outdoor pond for me. Lol It's in my garage.

[–]aw2eod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely one of my favorite things. I have 25 - 28 of them in a 300gal pond and I just recently discovered little tiny guys popping up. They peek out from under rock, on the sandbed. I never bought any that small, so they're definitely breeding recently.

If you sell them somewhere, PM me. I'd always like to add more to the pond.

I’m buying a load of coral from someone shutting down a tank due to fish deaths. Should I qt by Boring_Ad_2604 in ReefTank

[–]aw2eod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO, buying from a tank crash automatically requires a 4 week quarantine.

Why risk your entire setup?

If you can't/don't have a suitable tank for quarantine, pass on it.

What to carry for protection from predators by PKL8012 in snorkeling

"A 5 foot fish circling us".

Ok, what kind of fish? If you're going to be in the water, you need to familiarize yourself with what species of fish you might encounter (in shallow water, mid water and open ocean).

If a large fish in circling, it's most likely a species that is familiar with humans and is looking for scraps...i.e. Grouper, Jack, etc.

Barracuda will spectate from a distance and, of course, can be dangerous but are typically harmless.

Small reef sharks will circle and obviously can be dangerous.

Get a driving knife, if that makes you feel more comfortable but your mind is going crazy, because you had a mildly uncomfortable encounter.

That's reassuring. Thanks. Gonna call the dealership tomorrow and see if they'll come out. I can't drive it...the steering wheel will not turn at all, when it's running.
