You must live in my neighbourhood, where I see VHS tapes for sale on the street, daily, along with all manner of stuff stolen from homes, yards, vehicles, businesses, etc. Wish I could post photos...

(yo...i used to mine the goodwills. 45rpms mostly. (you might call me a "seven inch man".) my big trick was to get about 70 or 80 of them stacked on top of one another (they compact nicely), then carry them to the register with fingers on the bottom and thumbs on the top, and say "how much for this little pile of records?". as often as not, the lady would respond "oh, about a dollar, i guess". you'd think 70 records would form a towering ziggurat, but it's just a dinky little pile. got lots of stuff cheap that way. eventually, most got stolen. somewhere, there are thieves listening to "gilly gilly ossenfeffer katzenellen bogen by the sea" and such.barbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01614152954364501680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11600065.post-2838335727521760022017-07-07T18:59:54.033-04:002017-07-07T18:59:54.033-04:00You can't hear me blasting the Christmas music...You can't hear me blasting the Christmas music through the wall?

Buster, I've ...Thanks for the comments, folks!<br /><br />Buster, I've shared out square dance Christmas before, including a whole single of Deck The Halls and a track by famous square dancer Carson Robison, also calling Jingle Bells I think. :)<br /><br />Laurie, there IS Christmas music everywhere! Stopped at the Goodwill on the way back from Walmart and found a piano version of White Christmas on some private press LP, and a side-long Nutcracker Suite from Arthur Fiedler & The Boston Pops. Probably had that one already, but not in this cover. Everywhere! :)Erniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02589056878160272070noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11600065.post-54307996206552984482017-07-06T22:09:43.276-04:002017-07-06T22:09:43.276-04:00I am so enjoying these, as always.
