1st-EB stuff

i read about Gottfried Achenwall, b 1719-d 1772(HEY! i have a coin from when he was born! cool!)
who was the first to apply the name scientia statistica. STATISTICS! lies,damned lies and statistics!

rather read about that than atomic energy.

2nd. estate sale

last one not so good? this one too good. in a very high end neighborhood and from what i can tell, a nice bungalow was being used for STORAGE, not living. man those antique dealers are strange! SO, of course it was packed with antiques!
tch tch. i bought way too much. but i did get a very early coca cola bottle for my aunt. fluted and clear. very pretty even not a coke bottle. got more cheaper bottles for me. more silver plate. ooh, one has acorns and oak leaves! 2 african things. one carved bust. other rascist ashtray. but neat. and 2 count em TWO potato smooshers, but one is really nice. weighs a ton, so maybe it's ironwood. i remember hauling some ironwood to the cottage for fall fires, that wood is HEAVY! and a printers block. it appears to be a 30's version of a cop. from the waist up. there were more, but i liked this one best.
man did she have stuff. a garage AND a shed full. maybe i should go back just for am old planer.
or 2
or 3.
but tomorrow also has a Laura's collectables sale. she always has good stuff too. and last time i made money off her.
