They had This Story on the local TV news this morning.

This old lady lives in this house. She decides to sell everything (probably moving to retirement home -- they interviewed her and she is pretty old).

Auctioneer is going through her stuff to help her get it sorted.

Looks under the bed, and -- guess what -- boxes and boxes of vintage comic books. First edition Superman, etc.

You know, usually stuff like this is urban myth. But this one isn't.

Why couldn't I have a grandma like that?

Yeah, my grandmother had a growing collection of pilfered sugar packets. That was about it.

Well, maybe someday my collection of AOL disks will be valuable.

I'd build up another nest egg just in case, Dan.
