It's not an obsession, but it is more than mildly irritating when, for the second straight auction at least, Goodwin has given start dates, waited fairly close to their beginning, and then bumped them back multiple times for no good stated reason. Makes the auction look amateurish--they really should get their poop in a group.

So why the hell give a starting date? Let it happens when it happens.

Well Mister Smarty-Pants, it just so happens that my lady friend and I first met on 8/16, and I was going to pop the question to her on that day in code by making sure the lot number corresponding to the date I've reserved the wedding chapel for received the very first bid.

She's very perceptive.

Now I've cancelled the reservation. I guess it just wasn't meant to be.

If my wife (also very perceptive) sees your post, she will learn of my mistresses and my life will be ruined.

To Goodwin - "stall"

To Darwin - "please delete"

Glenn, 8/16 is indeed a special date. My twin sons were born on 8/16/71. And, I got remarried on 8/16/97. On our 20th anniversary last week, #2 wifey and I went to the Wash. Nationals game - she's a keeper!
