    I would say that is a remarkable price for just about anything. You can't get much cheaper than that. Congrats.

    Hmmm, I may be the "King of the remarques," but Ari certainly is "King of the Contests." He has won stuff from Ceri (SKFakes), Lilja, and on this site. Ari, do they have a national lottery in Argentina? Man, you should play!!!!!

    Yes I cannot count the times when I thought I was in the running and onoly to learn that I had been foiled by Ari - I cannot complain as I have won Lilja and SKFakes contests; I also won one at a site that SirBoomme ran; and I even won twice at S&S - once a signed poster and once a HIA package that included a deck of cards and a cassette.

    And I did win big big here this past weekend; Yep I won Prize #1 (right behind Ari and the Grand Prize I might add!) a Remarqued LSOE - my first of that sort! WooHoo!!!!!

    That is just a little less rare than the Grand Prize itself.

    So glad you won it.

    That's nice that he did that for you. McCammon is one of my top five (or so) favorite authors. I read everything of his that I can.

    Congratulations all! David, Bob, Jerome...amazing adquisitions! And thanks for the contratulations for the prize I'm really astonished!

    Now:
    Hmmm, I may be the "King of the remarques," but Ari certainly is "King of the Contests." He has won stuff from Ceri (SKFakes), Lilja, and on this site. Ari, do they have a national lottery in Argentina? Man, you should play!!!!!
    You know...it's funny you mention that. I always considered myself very lucky. It's not that I win a lot of things (well..regarding King I might LOL), but I always celebrate when I win something, even when it's something very small like a movie in dvd, a poster, or something amazing like the star prize.
    Well..the fact is that you're not the only one who told me to play the lottery here. It's not like USA's one, but still...this week's pot is for more than 4 million dollars.
    A month ago I dreamt that I won it, and when I realized it was a dream while I was still dreaming, I said "I gotta remember the numbers". When I woke up, my girlfriend was in the computer, so I told her (with my sleepy voice yet) "Open a notepad and take note!"
    and I gave her 5 numbers...because in my dream I won the lottery repeating a number (well...it was a dream...that's not allowed actually ). I went to buy the ticket that afternoon. When the results appeared, I hit 3...and the other 3 I missed them by a number (I played 24, 37 and 39, and 25, 38 and 40 where the winners). It was pretty funny...but when I saw the first ones I "grabbed", well...I was pretty nervous!

    If you ever see a post here from me where you see all the S/L editions available in my bookcase...well...that day's dream had the correct numbers

    By the way...my girlfriend knows I'm a little bit crazy since the day we met, so it's not like she's not used already with my odd comments like the one of opening the notepad and give her 5 numbers. The good thing is that I didn't gave her the "LOST" numbers

    Cool McCammon sigs...did you ask him to not personalize them, or did he sign his name on his own choice?

    I simply mailed the books (pre-approved). Since I asked for no inscription, Mr. McCammon "flatsigned" the books.

    Edit:
    McCammon doesn't do remarques or other doodles as he states he isn't an artist.

    Do you speak of 4 8 15 16 23 42? I've played them before and didn't win a cent. I still have the ticket though.
