auction 750
« on: July 29, 2012, 11:28:26 AM »
A friend just called, he's at an auction and there is a nice looking 750 there. The sale is 50 minutes to an hour from here and he isn't staying for the end.  Why's a guy gotta do that to you? By the time I run by the bank machine and get there it's probably going to be sold dangnabit. I called a friend that lives closer, he's not there either.

+1, I don't really think you're trying Don, or you'd be there! ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

I gave up early. Shame on me. coulda passed it on to you guys for a modest handling fee.
 I hope it brought big money. I'll feel worse if it went cheap.
