Nice for sure. Congratulations.

Live free or die. Plain and simple.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your council or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams |

I am so jealous.  When it comes to halves, all I get are skunks.
Congrats.

| Congrats. Bags can be fun, most of mine have been way short and dismal silverwise but I often reminise about my first one. HH Mark |

Nice Score. Beats the (expletive deleted) out of my last box. If you have good luck, push it! Go back and see if they have any more, check out any financial institutions that are close by too. |

| The guy I sell my 40% halves to buys all the bags from the main bank where he lives, when the branches fill a bag they go there and he gets them. Most of what he gets is crap but sometimes he scores. He sent ME a message last week about a bag that had 65 bens in it and another had over 500 40%ers. But like I said most are crap. HH Mark |
