Who Has Time???

ej-bd-workshop-20121227_7466

I walked into Mickey O’Rourke’s Grille on 10th Avenue sometime in spring of 1983. The place reeked of Beer, Adrenalin and Oldness. More than a century of tavern-dwellers and food service had taken their toll. We were seated in the back, all 22 of us that had walked over from the workshop space, and our waiter came over to the table. Continue reading

How Challenge Coins Work

atthekarma-con-idhhb-2012_1569-quote copy

I have in hand a number of “Challenge Coins” which I’ve been calling “Mystery Coins”, by which I mean coins which I’ve flipped, meaning spent more money on than the penny originally called for. But why did I flip that particular coin? It’s a Mystery. YOU have to guess/decide/see what it was about this coin that prompted me to spend good hard cash on it over and above its 1 cent face value. Why plunk down more money on a worthless coin??? Obviously, because to me, it’s worth more than a penny. But why? And how much more?

Fred’s Farm Rules the Roost

flipart1

As I’m painting the flips this morning, I came to realize that this seemingly simple act actually transforms the fate of both the penny and the flip in which it’s contained. The ordinary kismet of the flip would be to be discarded at the next trade. As a WOA — Work of Art — it is almost guaranteed to be treated quite differently, although works of art have been known to end up in the Sally Ann Thrift Stores now and then. You’ll find some of my coin flip art on eBay these days.

Dragon Yer Ass

Well, I finally took a little time to finish this 2011 offering which up ’til now has been available only as a beta download. It’s nothing special, except for speed-decisions, directional timing, instant navigation and evaluation of threat, clearing obstruction to forward motion, and other equally vital issues in the Between-Lives State. Dragon hunting? Think of it as a training regimen, not a way of life. Just ease up the tension in the sphincter just a little, and enjoy this medieval romp through a fantasy land that really exists Out There…Somewhere — perhaps in your near future??? (In a thick, Eastern European sort of “Cloris Leachman Voice of Doom” tone) Over ze rainbow, per-haps? The Dragon 3D game is not a prosperity path orb. It is six hard-ass levels of the fastest kick-butt Dragon Slaying you’ll ever get hold of, and it will be available on goddgames.com in about a week, if all goes well.

Thrill of the Chase

1969svdbdouble2

Got hold of a new error — it’s the double “VDB” — the initials of Victor David Brenner, the sculptor who was the first to put a human face on a US cent. The initials are double-struck, sometimes triple-struck. I have a triple in hand atm, but it hasn’t been microphotographed yet, so I’m putting a couple of photos of the 1969-S double VDB up for you to see. You have to know where they occur and all that. I have that knowledge, plus the knowledge of how this minor industrial accident might have occurred, where it happened, and where you’re most likely to find this powerful and rare Strike Error! Tune in to the ICW this morning for more info.

We Buy Gold

buygold

New release in the works, We Buy Gold — an incredible romp through wealth, fame and glory, plus a great finish with Mr. Buddha. You’ll enjoy it. You can market We Buy Gold on the CD, plus imagine the result of putting up the sale poster for this game in your shop window or putting it up for sale online — it is a videogame, so should properly be listed under “videogames”. It will be available as a download as well as on disk.

Powerful New Addiction

skellies05

You know the theory: you can’t get rid of a habit, like biting your nails or smoking — you can only replace it with another equally strong habit. Well, here’s a harmless habit, coinology coin-sorting, that will give you fast, fast relief from some of those more harmful habits. It’s so absorbing, so focused and so exciting (I’ll explain why it’s exciting in a moment) that you won’t be able to tear yourself away! Think I’m exaggerating? Ask anyone who’s tried coinology, then send for the kit and get started on this great new heavy almost unbreakable addiction — coinology! If you aren’t amazed by the results, send it back for a full refund. Cost of coinology kit? $99 bucks. Most popular comment about coinology? “It’s terribly addictive. I can’t stop.” I bet you can’t, either. Take that bet — you’ll be happy you did!

No Experience Necessary

bargains

When you send for my new coinology “Academy in a Box”, you will have in your hands all the basics that you need to get started working in a whole new, totally invisible world. You don’t need to think or to know anything to make this kit work. It’s a mindfully mindless task, perfect for those Dark Hours of the Night. The kit includes Practice Search Rolls for you to familiarize yourself with the process of search, plus all the bins needed for a Level 1 penny search. All the dates are clearly marked; you merely act as a robot, placing each coin in its appropriate container. At the end of this process, you’ll have a large number of very high potential search rolls that could easily contain mint errors; at the same time, you’re learning to NOT look where it can’t be found, thus efficientizing your coin search process and saving you a ton of futility and wasted time and energy. Efficient means that you’ll be using my “production line” search technology, which is fully explained, demonstrated and illustrated on the DVD that comes with the kit. You’ll be amazed at how easy and FUN it is! The starter kit will be available after the testing week just ahead. I’m trying to keep the cost down to $99 — not sure if I can, but I’ll try. If you can’t afford that, just get the DVD — I send you the tabs and show you how to make your own homebrew coin sorting rig, if you can’t swing the price of the papier-mache handmades.

See You At The Top!!!
