Well, I just got my coin back from BUGS - I'm RICH!
I hadn't noticed the Ω privy or date but BUGS conservation revealed it. Feast your eyes on this beauty!
Tip of the hat to mrwiskers for facilitating the certification.

It could be yours, MrPink - I'm considering sending it to either Heritage or Great Collections.

not much moola tonight (just thirty-three cents ), but I really scored bigtime in the food & beverage department. someone left several items for me to find. believe it or not:

a small container of popcorn chicken, a carton of 18 medium eggs, a bag of grapes, a sack of actual popcorn (just like what you would get at a theater-- yum , which I haven't had in years), a sack of pepperoni pizza-flavored Combos, a small container of cheddar broccoli soup (from the deli) and a bottle of water. all of that from publix' parking lot, someone left it all behind. amazing. that must be at least a $25 score. everything new, unopened & undamaged, still in the plastic bags it left the store in. total providence. kitty karma?

speaking of that, I've discovered a new kitty to feed. this one is a Russian blue-type of a kitty, with that thick blue-grey fur, not sure if M or F yet, but I'm leaning toward F. I didn't see the obvious M indicator sticking off the rear end, but the kitty is not yet coming too close to me. loud, long meows. I found this kitty wandering the searstown publix parking lot one night a week or two ago, then went several nights without another sighting. then, maybe sunday or monday night I located that kitty again in the same area, licking at some gross-looking junk on the pavement, so I've been going out of my way to locate the kitty the past few nights. I put the same amount of food down for this kitty as I do for the others. so it looks like I have another new kitty friend. we'll see how this goes.

My catacorner neighbors had one and it visited me on a regular basis. She preferred my jungle yard to theirs for lizard hunting. Unfortunately they moved at the beginning of the month.

They're working on "MrPink karma" - I wonder what they go searching to find?

i assume they're just trying to find their way out of the parking lot, but only after they've searched for (and found) their car.

yes, total providence.

carry on. I have to go paint a kitchen ceiling...

i'll have to do a Year In Review post... and maybe review the past 8 years. I'm not sure how this project will go now that Au/Ag prices are flying away. I might have to let the street money get me some stuff for the type album. and who knows, economic conditions may worsen and there won't be much to pick off the streets anymore. I guess I just wait n see. it's been a good run overall. no complaints, other than I wish I would have started doing this many years prior to 2018.

I am sure people will still lose money. Especially when alcohol is involved.
