I had a whopper get away . . . actually it was a catch & release mistake on my part. This was way back in the day, shortly before my enlistment here in the 68kMLA. I was walking back to the subway from my elder younger brother's apartment up in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. It was a gray and dreary day and I passed a Mac sitting on the sidewalk. Looked it over, decided I didn't feel like schlepping it the rest of the way to the Subway and then from the Subway back to the shop.

Whoopsie! It was a friggin' IIfx! :I

As far as regularly missing out on sniping opportunities on eBay goes . . . that's about the only thing keeping a roof over my head, food on my plate and gas in my car. :lol:
