Eric: Ahhh... nothing says 'wedding' like 'getting rid of some crap!'

And hello and good morning, action force! It's the start of a new week -- and as it works out, a pretty important week for Weds and I. We get up tomorrow morning, bright and early, and head down to Boston to board a plane which then takes us to Las Vegas, Nevada. There, I go to a work related conference with other folks from work. In the evenings, we hang out and listen to the sounds of the bells.

And then, at the end of the week, there's a wedding. And that's downright awesome.

Needless to say, of course, we need more money than we currently have. And as we have done before and promised to do this time, we're turning to eBay -- land of getting rid of stuff -- to raise said funds while also clearing some room. It's win-win!

My eBay page is still here, and there's about 30 items up right now with more being added this afternoon. It's cool stuff! Here's a few highlights:

• We've got lots of GURPS stuff! Everything from heavy hitters like GURPS Psionics, GURPS Time Travel or GURPS Martial Arts to more esoteric things like GURPS Mecha, GURPS Timeline or GURPS Planet Krishna!
• On the Dungeons and Dragons side of things, there's the intensely cool Epic Level Handbook, Savage Species and the Psionics Handbook -- hurrah for brown rulebooks!
• Want to destroy the world? The epic World of Darkness: Time of Judgment shows you ways to do it in Changeling, Demon, Hunter, Mummy and Kindred of the Far East!
• Thanks to Weds and I both owning lots of In Nomine -- you'll recall that's a line I've written for -- we have some beautiful copies of In Nomine books up. If you've ever been interested (or wanted to expand your collection), there's lots here. Try the Game Master's Guide, Angelic Player's Guide, Infernal Player's Guide or Ethereal Player's Guide on for size!
• And, if you're not a roleplaying fan, try a hardback edition of the first Planetary or the first Top 10 volume on for size, with more coming later today! Warren Ellis or Alan Moore -- either way, that's pretty good soup.
• Not so much with Ellis or Moore, but like the art of the comic? Why not try Flight? We have Volume 1 and Volume 2 for you.
• And if nothing appeals that I've mentioned, there's always Kermit the Frog's autobiography. His felty, felty autobiography.

I won't kid you -- this has been a very expensive month for us. Between moving, getting household stuff set up, and preparing for a Wedding (just because we're going the Vegas route doesn't mean there's not, y'know, money that needs spendin') things are a lot tighter than we'd hoped for this stage of things. If folks have an inclination to use the donation button on the sidebar, we'd certainly be appreciative, though I'd admit I feel odd asking for that. Thus, we put stuff up for sale, and continue to do so. So please, bid early, bid often, and tip your waitresses. You know, your waitress doesn't get paid very much -- it's your appreciation that means she eats. Now, please enjoy the dulcet tones of mister Rudy Vallee.
