That's funny, I heard some bloke say the same thing from "over
there".
Actually, the good deals are in your own backyard. You're just too
close to see them.
No, I was just using this as an excuse to say what people "over there"
say, in an attempt at humor (which I find myself now explaining). You
may note the smiley on my message, trying to indicate that I was
joking... Sigh.
And yes, I know most of the best deals are in my back yard. I've gotten
plenty of intersting things within a couple hundred miles drive of
home, and most within 5 miles of home...
