My longest post has probably been less than six sentences. If I had a broken hand I wouldn't be typing a post this long. I don't know how you do it.

In a traffic related story..
My friend Micah was a waitress and as she left work one night..she was tboned by a car who hit and ran..she was thrown from the car..than ran over by her own car and one other car. But not seriously (miraculously) injured. It was one of those things where being thrown from the car was a good thing..because her car continued to be pinballed around until it was a pancake.
Anyway, she is laying in the middle of Dale Mabry highway in Tampa Florida and myself and other people on the sidelines rushed out to pull her from the middle of the road.
A middle aged man, clean cut nice looking says "I am a police officer we need to get her to the hospital!" He directs us to his car grabs her purse from the road and asks us to bundle her into his back seat. I stop and ask the bartender aside "How do we know he is a cop?" He asks the "cop" for id..he looks around..jumps in his car and takes off(stealing her purse but thankfully not her which was evidentally his intentions) The real police show up etc and she was fine but who knows what would have happened if we had put her in that car!
The couple who hit her initially were followed by witnesses when the cops got the their house they had both started drinking large amounts of alcohol and said they finished a bottle and took a few pills because they were soooo upset by the accident...(but most likely covering their buts for being on drugs and drunk in the first place) They claimed they fully intended to go to the police the next day and turn themselves in because they thought when they saw the cars driving over Micah..they had killed her and were terribly upset..
They suck
I am so sorry about what happened to not only you, but your friend. This was a very good post and I thank you for sharing it. Someone else would have thought that this person was a 'cop'', no questions asked. It just goes to show you how many truly 'sick' people there are in this world.
In all honesty, and I hate to say this, it is truly 'amazing' that the human race has survived this long. After reading stories like this, I truly believe that it may be best for us to be 'wiped out' in one apocalyptic event. Then I try to find the good in people; the people who do care. This is what inspires me and reminds me that hope and justice will prevail...
Happy Easter and God Bless!
Respectfully,
'mint'

Question: "I was wondering how you deal with collectors and speculators who truly believe that the items they are buying now are going to be worth a lot of money in the future...?"
ANSWER: "The safest approach is to avoid discussing the topic of future collectability with these individuals: first, they know more than anyone else; second, they are deaf to any opinion that does not agree with their own; third, they are misguided optimists, assuming past practice could not possibly apply in their case."
