This post was to be a humorous goof on the fact that some times I (we) initially think something isn't of interest but later change our minds.
When Joe pointed the item out as interesting I - thinking I wasn't interested - said I'd help anybody here who bought it.
That offer stood. Had somebody here out bid and won it I'd have been glad to to the assist.
As it was - there were 3 bidders all early on the day it closed. I bid late on the day it closed.
High bidder ahead of me was $15.99
I bid $16.99

I don't think anybody else wanted it very much if that's as high as they were willing to go.

So - with that - I'll keep any future posts to facts and avoid humor.
