Do these sellers just pull these prices out of their head or do they research the market value?

Well, it took time and patience, Josette.  I accumulated those riches over several years.  The most I won at one time was $300 from having the most earned tokens from the PCH homepage.  A couple prizes were from Amazon and with them I bought a book and a DVD (2002's Carrie).  Everything else has been cash.  Back in July, on one day I won $20; the following day I won another $100.  When I cash the checks the tellers all say they need to start playing.  You have to put up with a lotta annoying ads but, hey, it's free!

Kendrick:  "Yes, Melanie, we'll get married.  And since you're nuttier than a fruit cake, Bramwell showed me how to get an insurance policy on you that will send you to the asylum while I clean up."
Melanie:  "Oh, Kendrick, I'm so glad you planned ahead."

I'm thinking it's the brilliant special-effects scenes of the evil ghost in The Uninvited.  For those who've seen the film, the spirit looks like a dead ringer for Angeliques' spook in the '91 series. 

When it comes to the cost of the movie popcorn, candy-bar and soda, Barnabas managed to convince everyone to go Dutch treat.  He didn't have enough of Naomi's jewels on him to buy a round.

When I hear "flashing," I think of the seventies.  Remember what that meant back then?

Nah, MB, it won't make a believer out of me.  I'll say this much for the old show:  on most of the episodes, the hunters stated that there was no credible evidence of the paranormal in most of the cases they investigated.  I'll give them that credit. 

Has anyone noticed that most of the spook shows have now shifted to the Travel Channel?  There are scores of them, running every day from morning to night, seven days a week.  No more "travel" - Samantha Brown, who had a good show about travel (she stayed in the same hotel in Venice I did), is gone; so are the rest of the shows.  The dullest on the TC is Ghost Adventures with a host so annoying you want to throw an iron at the TV screen.  The Deaf Files has been totally debunked.

But the shows are fun to watch.

Join in, MB:  "Always look for the union label, when buying a shirt, blouse or dress.  Always look for the union label..."  Remember those ads?

P.S.  Damn, we're old.
