Yes. the problem is, there's bad like "haha, oh you naughty BOY!" and then
there's bad like what raw chicken skin and bones smell like after 48 hours
in the trash. In the heat. Which would be Greg's kind of "bad."

I'm a good negotiator. I'm a little *cough* blunt here but I can really turn
on the persuasiveness when I need to.

Uh oh! I'm in trouble now! Hey, if you do get one, make sure to get a
Hamilton Beach. They're the best of the bunch. The jadeite green was the
most popular color, but they were also made in cream, blue, and pink.
These machines make the best malteds in town.

Oh, one more thing... Don't buy one that looks like this. It's a
reproduction and doesn't have the capacity or power of the old ones.

Yes, sir! Just looking at the thing (and the fact that it went for
under $20) ought to be a tipoff!

You're welcome... If it's any guideline, I believe I paid around $90 for
mine and I thought it was a bargain, as it's really in mint condition.
