Yard Sale Saturday
PG walked down the street to a yard sale. At first, he thought it was just an excuse to take a stroll. Then he saw the bins of vhs tapes.
The tapes belonged to the son of the lady running the sale. This was the year for him to get his junk out of her basement. The sale was a device to get some money out of the deal.
With the advent of the dvd, vhs tapes are obsolete. Once the state of the art, they are today’s eight track tape. If you go to yard sales, you can get a nice collection for pocket change.
PG got 11 tapes for two dollars. This is roughly what a ticket to a first run movie cost in 1970.
The movies are: Rosemary’s Baby, Hamburger Hill, Zachariah, Bean, Night of the Living Dead, Lionheart, The Waterboy, Mean Streets, And now for something completely different, Full Metal Jacket, and Fantastic Planet.
