What in the world did Waldo see?
« on: February 08, 2013, 08:38:22 PM »
Waldo was a newbie in the storage auction biz and the way he dressed didn't help him blend in with the crowd. He was the butt of more than one joke.

Yesterday Waldo went to an auction and was amazed to see only 55 people there...(I said he was a newbie). Long story short, the LAST door (of 11 sales lkrs) went up and Waldo was right up front.

Lo and behold there it was, the holy grail of storage auctions, a 1961_________________!

Waldo was so disappointed he threw the guitar case across the unit and struck a cuckoo clock. The cuckoo came out of the clock striking a lamp which toppled over. When Waldo went to see if the lamp was broken, he noticed a

....... piece of paper sticking out of a dusty old box. Waldo strained to read the upside down heading at the top of the page and slowly pieced together.....S-T-O-R-A-G-E....A-U-C-T-I-O-N.....N-E-W-S....T-E-X-A-S....!  "What the heck he exclaimed....we're in Massachusetts!  Waldo was befudled as he seldom actually KNEW where he was.  Finally, he straightened himself out and peered further into the locker and got a glimpse of a red, white and blue________.

....Volkswagen Bus with a big peace sign on the hood and surf boards strapped to the luggage rack. He was like "groovy dude." After moving some boxes, he opened the door to bus to discover a movie camera and a bag of what appeared to be Oregano. Once he realized that the contents of the bag wasn't Oregano, Waldo was starting to get an idea where he was but he wasn't quite sure. Hmm he said, VW Bus, Mary J, a movie camera and surf boards...I think I got it. Be fore making his conclusion, he looked around for more evidence.

....Alaska !  Well, Waldo does have trouble with his compass and his knowledge database, but his big problem now was the hordes of auction buyers who were pulling him out of the VW bus...."You idiot", they shouted, "You can't go IN the locker!"  They dragged him out and only the auctioneer was able to save him from a drubbing.

Poor Waldo. Licking his wounds he wandered on down the road to another auction with a newbie's new knowledge in his head. Don't go in the unit.  At auction #2 the crowd was only at 30 souls and they all looked friendly. Door #1 went up and waldo saw something shiny in the back; it looked like a _____________.
