First of all, a happy birthday to one of my favorite actors, the late Roddy McDowall. Roddy passed away in 1998 from cancer; were he alive today, he'd be 77 years young. So, happy birthday Roddy!
Secondly, the Pec Thing was today and as far as hauls go I didn't do too badly. I found three old skeleton keys, which I've taken to collecting. I don't know what it is about old keys that fascinates me so (and my mom doesn't get it either). But I just think they're really neat. I also acquired two more Nancy Drews for my collection, which means I'm probably going to have to do some bookshelf rearranging.
One of the booths had a bin of old My Little PoniesTM, and I just couldn't pass up the chance to add to my collection. I was able to get five ponies (two adults, three babies) for about 8 bucks; not a bad deal, if I do say. They need to be cleaned up and have their hair washed and de-frizzed, but other than that they're in good condition. Later as I was looking through my bag while in line for a waffle cone, one of my ponies was lying feet-up and I noticed for the first time that her hooves were flat. The first Ponies that came out all had flat hooves, and then in Year 2 Hasbro re-released them with concave hooves which became the norm for the MLP line after that. So that is a pretty rare find indeed.
