    Procedure looks successful, although they could only target the offending stone, leaving the "big" one still in kidney. Still, I finally feel better as of noon today, prior 18 hours felt like someone pummeled my midsection (I guess they did actually).

    Thank you everyone. I hope to be fairly normal tomorrow.

    Glad you're feeling better. It's much better to go 'under the knife' and have it be successful. Normality is probably going to feel wondrous after feeling shitty for so long.

    That's unfortunate that there's still a 'big' one in there. Hopefully it's like Halley's Comet and doesn't come around for another 76 years.

    Edit: and I only hope it's like Halley's in terms of time, not size.

    The only benefit of suffering through the agony of a kidney stone is that when the pain does pass you realize just how great it is to feel normal. When I had mine the only minimal relief was to pace the floor night and day. Not possible to sit or lay down. Brutal. An experience I hope to never repeat. So all the best.

    I had the opportunity to buy letter TT for 2500 from Camelot Books a year ago. I wasn't in the market for a lettered Shining, so I ended up passing the opportunity off to someone who was. Seeing it sell for 4750 less than 12 months later stings just a bit. Lesson learned, I suppose.

    Heading to NYC for Comic-Con in about 90 minutes. Hope to see a lot and have a good time. Betts closed today as I'll be gone all day.

    Will be interesting to see what they'll fetch on the (eBay) open market compared to SDCC.

    Sony Pictures NOT present at NY Comic Con and interestingly, I went to ALL the booths selling comics (new and old) and virtually all were not carrying ANY of Marvel's Stephen King Dark Tower related comics...I found only a handful of various issues and only 1 complete ARC of Gunslinger Born comics 1-7...otherwise, NONE were being sold....

    So what do you infer from that David? Are they being stockpiled for film release or is there deemed no interest in them?
    "A real limited edition, far from being an expensive autograph stapled to a novel, is a treasure. And like all treasures do, it transforms the responsible owner into a caretaker, and being a caretaker of something as fragile and easily destroyed as ideas and images is not a bad thing but a good one...and so is the re-evaluation of what books are and what they do that necessarily follows." - Stephen King

    I wouldnt agree. They are unsigned 1st edition, without King's blurbs and intro, therefore, as someone pointed out, the same that Jake gets...

    I, too, disagree that they are worthless. The ones with barcodes, prices, 2016 copyright info, etc. will be worth next to nothing. But not these.

    Did I misunderstand? I thought the worthless comment was in regards to the comic books, since that was what David mentioned he was looking for in his post.
