I spent a good deal of Friday and Saturday at Mom and Dad's garage sale. Here are some random observations:

• It's amazing how you can price something dirt cheap, and someone still wants it for half of that amount. Like that extra 50 cents will break them.
• I got a lot of sunburn. Snuck up on me.
• One lady came back, saying she had given us a ten dollar bill, but only got change for a five. How to prove differently? Pam, a CPA, took her money. Pam don't make money mistakes. But Dad gave the lady a five. Benefit of the doubt. Then she probably went down the street to another garage sale and did the same thing. So says the cynic in me.
• Lots of Hispanics came.
• Women are good at folding clothes. Have some extra gene that guys lack.
• We had two big boxes of Christmas lights, one dollar each. One guy wanted to know if we'd take a dollar for both boxes together. Dad said no. "Then I'm not interested," the guy said. I guess he'd prefer spending $30 at a store.
