Subject: RE: BS: You Know You're Getting Old When....
Inside every seventy-year-old is a teen-ager asking "What the hell happened!!???"

"You go to a museum and see half your toys there." Or you suddenly realize you unwittingly lost a fortune way back when you had a cleanout.

I was a Buck Rogers fan and I had one of THESE when I was a kid. Got it sometime in the late Thirties. Helluva water pistol. Huge capacity. You could really soak somebody down with the thing. Scroll down and look at the price!!!

I also had a copy of the first comic book that Superman appeared in. Got it off the stand for a dime. Last I heard, a copy in halfway decent condition sold for $25,000.
