<p>[QUOTE="Robert Ransom, post: 4315151, member: 97872"]Joined the service years ago. While in boot camp and unbeknownst to me, my parents decided to buy another smaller new house and sold the old one. I returned home after I finished "basic training" to the new house. All my bedroom furniture was gone. I had a crisp 1934 star $20 bill in an envelope taped to the back of the top drawer of my dresser. When I received it from the bank after cashing a savings bond I thought it looked cool, so I decided to stash it away. Gone, also, were the many boxes of baseball cards, Ruth, Mantle, DiMaggio, etc. along with my collection of comic books, Batman, Superman, Green Lantern, first issue of The Incredible Hulk (bought it just before I left for the service) that I stored beneath the attic floorboards. We argued why one didn't tell the other about the comics or house sale, but in the end, my father said, "What's done is done, we have to forget it and move on." Yeah, easy for him to say. OH, if only....[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
