I don't think anyone's working back there today

Been to Quincy the last two days and have come up empty. It's not one of those droughts its just they seem to be so far behind in putting stuff out because I can see in the back room, carts upon carts of things but no one to bring anything out.

Decided not to go into town today and instead went to the Amvets on the observation of Veteran's day hoping for some luck. Nothing spectacular but didn't come up empty.

Remember those short-lived 80s toys Madball's? If you don't I feel for you, because they were awesome. Got this Madballs Slobulus winter hat:


and Six Feet Under Graveyard Classics CD:

I don't want anything to do with that baby

It seems the Gestapo division of the Goodwill is at it again. Apparently they don't want people going through the bins until the workers have put things on shelves. This makes no sense. If anything, the customers rummaging through the bins helps because A.) It saves the workers tedious time putting stuff that people huddle around them for anyway. B.) Some of the customers themselves put things on the shelves for the workers. I don't see this rule lasting, it will probably be enforced by the workers who just hate their lives and their job.

anyways...

Awesome dvd haul, Grindhouse Experience vol. 1 & 2:

Got this nice little portable record player today. This is my fourth, there's just something really neat about them. I plan on taking this into work tonight to listen to Hendrix:

I'll beat you up in front of the customers

A quick stop today in Quincy. If you're only gonna come out of a thrift store with one thing make sure its a Rocky III LP soundtrack:


The Quincy store seems to be going through some type of transition, as the whole back end of the store was bare.
I didn't make it out to Harrison Ave today because I didn't feel like driving through this crappy rain, plus I had a delivery so I'll get out there next week.

I thought you were gonna hit me

Went to Davis Sq. for the first time in weeks. Picked up these two books, I especially enjoy the children's adaption of the Iliad and The Odyssey dated 1956 with beautiful illustrations. Would be worth a few bucks if the outer binding was still there:


Also got a promo copy of Botch's American Nervoso:


Then stopped in Quincy and got this Cream dvd:

There's a mess and I'm cleaning it up

Goodwill Quincy has been slacking off as of late. No one has been putting out anything and I'm reduced to getting these shirts:
