Another Vehicle Break-In At Mile High Comics
Howdy!
Last night, it was my turn to be the victim of a crime. I had just left a benefit show for
the Parkinson Association of the Rockies
at a restaurant in downtown Denver when I discovered a young woman sitting in the back of my
minivan! My van had been locked, so she had clearly broken in, and was in the midst of changing
clothes? when I walked up. When I yelled at her, she grabbed whatever she could, opened the door
on the far side of the van from me, and booked it down the street at full speed.
Chuck's van
If this all sounds very strange, that is because it truly was a weird experience. This woman left
behind a nearly new set of boots, her cell phone, a sports bra, a cigarette lighter, and a pair of
pants with a nice belt attached. As near as I can tell, she took nothing of mine. She did somehow
disconnect the locking mechanism on my sliding door (it now will not respond to the electronic key...),
but otherwise caused no obvious harm. In that regard, I was lucky. I do have to say, however, that
having my van invaded right after my wife, Nanette, had her van stolen right out of our driveway
(just six days ago) is extremely upsetting. In all honesty, I just want to just go back to my peaceful
state of not worrying about these kinds of things, but I guess that's not going to happen any time
soon. Sigh...
Chuck and Nanette
As regards to good news, the outpouring of 60% off NANETTE! codeword orders that began last Wednesday
actually accelerated toward the end of the week, with a near doubling over the weekend. I showed Nanette
each order that included a personal message of sympathy to her about her stolen van in the "notes" section
of the order form, which made her very happy. I also promised her that I would keep the 60% off sale in
effect through at least Monday of next week, so that she could continue wiping out small invoices from
our accounts payable file. She's still unhappy about losing her van (which the insurance company is almost
certain to total due to excessive damage...), but at least another part of her life is going well.
In addition to offering you all ten million of our
back issue comics and magazines
at 60% off via the NANETTE! codeword, we have also slashed the prices on all of our
trade paperbacks and graphic novels
by 40% off, and all of our comics-related
hardbacks
by a full 30% off. Books do not require a codeword,
however, as those prices have already been reduced for you right on
our website.
The 60% off NANETTE! codeword applies to all of our
Golden Age,
Silver Age,
Bronze Age,
and
Modern comics and magazines,
excepting only new issues, a few variants, and our professionally-graded
issues. Enjoy!
