+1, Leon. I was outbid on all of the T206 lots that I wanted and then started talking myself into bidding on stuff that didn't even fit into my collecting niche. In the end, I look a pass on everything.

It reminded me of a quarterback inside the red zone in football. Sometimes, if no one is open, the best play is to just throw the ball out of the end zone and go back to the drawing board...

Desiderata

You are a child of the universe,
no less than the trees and the stars;
you have a right to be here.
And whether or not it is clear to you,
no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.
With all its sham, drudgery, and broken dreams,
it is still a beautiful world.
Strive to be happy.
