    I opened it a bit higher than the minimum, but my $75 has already been outbid.

    I can't believe it but I think my anxiety over our ability this year may be going down!

    Thanks to Jerome who notified me of some serious typos in this auction, they are fixed now.

    Oh darn, I was kinda wishing you'd leave the typos - in hopes that they would keep the bidding down.

    I was surprised anyone bid on it at all with that information. I typed the excerpt myself from the book and it went badly.

    So disappointed to have missed this one...I just wasn't able to get logged on to see out the end of the auction.
    Anyway, great buy and congratulations Jerome.
