Another coin show this weekend
I don't have as many prep notes as usual this time.
But a couple of friends have commissioned me to buy selected items for them.
If I can even find those items!
Silver and gold prices are down, so many dealers may not be willing to part with certain items in their inventory.
It will be a relief to be out and about if only for one day. We've been real shut in here since Mrs. AOW's eye surgery back on October 2. She's still miserable, but isn't letting on. When she can help letting on, that is. I know that she's still in quite a bit of pain and very, very tired. She was going to go to the coin show with me, but I'm not sure that she's up to it.

Happy Halloween!
I really miss not being able to carve a Halloween pumpkin.
In my day, I carved some doozies!

My favorite season
Two more great graphics by Stogie:
I do miss driving our Mustang convertible. I haven't driven in during the fall since 2008. Bummer!
Mrs. AOW and I used to take in the fall foliage by cruisin' in the Mustang with the top down!
Today is my birthday, but because of Mrs. AOW's eye troubles, we will probably not get out of the house at all today.

Troubles Here
Mrs. AOW has a detached retina - a very bad thing to have! It's a terrible operation!
She's not talking about all this at her blog because she's too busy getting ready for tomorrows's operation. It's major surgery - the first time she's ever had such a long operation.
She really doesn't want to talk about this terrible thing at her blog.
When things settle down, she might post about it there. Maybe.
This is what the operation will be like:
Mrs. AOW's friend Sharon is staying here to be Mrs. AOW's caregiver. Sharon will take me to the hospital so that I can be there in the waiting room and see Mrs. AOW as soon as possible after surgery.
Like I said, "Troubles here." Mrs. AOW won't be blogging for a while!

Who knew?
Penthouse magazine went bankrupt about 10 days ago.
FriendFinder Networks took over the magazine back in 2003.
Now FriendFinder has gone belly up, too.

Time for humor
With thanks to Big Bubba, who emailed me this joke:
A fourth-grade teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living. All the typical answers came up - fireman, mechanic, businessman, car salesman... and so forth.
However, little Justin was being uncharacteristically quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his father, he replied, "My father's an exotic dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his clothes to music in front of other men and they put money in his underwear. Sometimes, if the offer is really good, he will go home with some guy and stay with him all night for money."
The teacher, obviously shaken by this statement, hurriedly set the other children to work on some exercises and took little Justin aside.
"Is that really true about your father?"
"No," the boy said. "He works for the Democratic National Committee and helped to get Obama elected, but it's too embarrassing to say that in front of the other kids."
