What was your most exciting find?  

There are two huge threads
on this topic already, Lisa, just search for them in the forum search bar.

Thanks, oh well I'm new at...
Thanks, oh well I'm new at this, so whats wrong with a third..

Nothing wrong, I think, but...
Nothing wrong, I think, but maybe Olive was thinking you might want to read the previous threads. The more I think about it, I think your most exciting find may actually have quite little to do with your most exciting find, or at least not so much to do with your most exciting find as it does to do with what time it is when you found it.
Or was.
The older I get the more I think about time. Odd to think of time as exciting, especially as it clicks by, second by second, but it truly is, I'm thinking.
So that's my answer currently, as I found it, 11:22 AM, Thursday morning, USA, central standard:
Time.

Hudson are you trying to...
Hudson are you trying to make my brain bleed?

lol, sorry whitespike, not...
lol, sorry whitespike, not my intention, ever. Just thinking out loud, which in my case should not really even be confused with thinking, but the parameters of an internet forum seem to kind of encourage it.
Was it Ginsberg who said best thought first thought, or something like that?
Which rhymes as well I see with worst thought. And hey, I could have said a Barcelona chair at Burger King or a 6-point muletail. 🙂
11:37 now.

Yeah, that's precisely what I meant...since you'd asked about other finds
and hudsonhonu...please go take a nap....I think you brain needs the time off! 😉

Very good advice Olive....
Very good advice Olive. Speaking of naps, there was one I remember finding at Love Library, 5th floor stacks, UNL, back in 1983 ...

Nuthin' like a good nap...
no matter where you find it. I remember a good one on Cape Cod in a hammock near the sea...

In advance of potential hurt...
In advance of potential hurt feelings, no offense Lisa, it's a great question. It's just that it's been asked here before, as Olive indicates, at least a couple times, generating tremendous response.
Always good to hear new responses, but if I recall halfway correctly, for every person who finds a slunk skin lcw at a garage sale or a Bertoia sound sculpture at the local landfill, you will find, say, at least fifty to a hundred folks who have found a Burke table in Aunt Blabby's attic or an HM stacker at the Goodwill.
All best,
hudsonhonu

I wish I had an Aunt Blabby....
I wish I had an Aunt Blabby. I did have an Aunt Bird.

I still have
an Uncle Heavy and an Aunt Alma. They have no cool legacy furniture to pass down but they do have a post office in their living room. We used to get quite a kick out of looking at US atlases from the 1960's and 70's. Deora, Colorado, population 2. Yup, Uncle Heavy and Aunt Alma.

All of us have an aunt Blabby...
All of us have an aunt Blabby, if we think hard enough, by the way, or btw, as the kids like to say. I'm more jealous of your aunt Bird, whitespike. Damn.
Jonathan Winters middle name is Harshman, which may be one of the greatest middle names of all time; take that, Cassius Clay.
Winters' career as a comic began I heard because of a lost wristwatch (time, I repeat). Honestly, it's per wikipedia.

Even better my piano /...
Even better my piano / guitarists' last name is Hercules. No joke.
The guy who installed my solar panel system's last name is Nimrodi.
