This was a better 30 year investment than silver or gold.

Look at the original price, reduced to 4.99 (full pop retail). A 1300% increase in 30 years. Not bad.
Crappy used ones are all over e-bay for 20-30 bucks.
DON'T WALK BY ORIGINAL 2 PANEL HACKY SACKS AT THE YARD SALE.

If I have the gift of prophesy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to move mountains but do not have love I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned but do not have love it profits me nothing.

I didn't hacky sack, but the younger guys in the print shop did. More than one found it's way into an inked screen or open can :geek:

People love the '80s. I was thinking Cabbage Patch Kids might be a good play, and they were made right down the road in West Hartford, CT

edit: made me google Cabbage Patch. Come to find out they were manufactured in Gloversville, NY for Coleco which was in W. Hartford. I did not know that.
