Thanks, all. Actually, Roger, I told the kid where to get the book, Amazon, Noble Barns, etc., but when he told me how many copies he wanted, I thought "I've got a case in the car." This kid has just been promoted from teller to commercial banking, so he's not earning much yet, and I thought, "Why not give him a 50 percent break and sign all the books?" Though I'd never met him, he's a nice lad who sees me out training Feeney all the time, because we're in the same complex. He about fell over when he looked at the Eldridge Hardie drawings.
I've sold $500 of donated books for the Boy Scouts and Shanley High in the last month, not even retrieving (Feeney?) my author cost; and it's nice to be in a position to support worthy charities and give kids a break.
