Watching the two $50K long barrels being auctioned off. You'll notice my bidder number firmly planted on the table. I can't breath in that rarified air! I did take a treasure or two home with me, though...and my wife is still taking to me. Congratulations to the successful bidders.

That's a very interesting picture Garry. Lot number 3435 in the background. While you were taking that picture at the exact same instant I was on the phone getting pummeled. I didn't figure I would get it but I didn't see that price coming. I thought what I bid was insane truthfully. Fortunate seller IMO, good for them. We'll catch up with each other at the annual meeting.

By chance did you happen to notice if the same buyer got both the 10 and the 12 ?

I did. They were different bid numbers for what that's worth, said seriously.
