A Consolation Prize of Sorts


Several beers after my humiliating (second) eBay defeat earlier this evening, (see previous entry), I bought myself a small measure of happiness:



That's right, it's the holiest of holy grails when it comes to Twilight Zone Magazine. April 1981, otherwise known as ISSUE NUMBER ONE. Heh, there's even a short story in it called "Grail." I found it on some obscure website called ecrater.com. $13.90 shipped. So suck it, eBay.

...til next time, that is. Because there will always be a next time. Even after all 60 issues of Twilight Zone Magazine are in my possession, there will be more things I will want. Or need. The OCD monkey is a lifelong resident of my head, unless I get some serious medication therapy.
