Status: online 		Thanks for the replies, guys! I just finished giving 55 bottles a good cleaning and I am utterly zombified! 

John, so far not a single milk!! But the crates are stacked 2 deep in the back row, so there's hope.. got 2 more Asbury park hutches.. Woody, those are ballasts.,,  Fred, that is not an option.. yet.. working on luring wifey to the dark side.. ..Sam, put that gun down and gimme some AA's!
This buck-a-piece bonanza is something I've been craving for a long time.. yeah, it's sloppy seconds, but somebody was kinda picky who unloaded all these.. I decided to go back tomorrow and make a day of filtering carefully through every last bot, and this one bedroom apartment is going to shiver under the weight of what I bring home, I kid you not! I'll clean em up and ebay em, gift em, trade em, use em, whatever.. I just love to be the curator of them.. and man I just loves me some glass!!!!
