So ... here in the Mid-West garage sales are starting to pick up. I'll give you one guess at whose wife's taillights illuminate 🛑 at the sight of any sign and ends up bringing home someone else's unwanted crap. 🤨

Today the wife walks into the house and said - I got you something at a garage sale that I think you'll like ... under my breath I am thinking ... probably not. 🙂↔️ I am sure my eyes rolled ...

Well ... she proved me wrong. 😬

She found me this for my man cave.

It's an antique cannon reading light (the added Tendick sets it off). It's manufactured by a company named Swank. It has a low/high intensity switch too. She only paid 3 bucks for it.

Thanks dear for not bringing me something else I have to lie saying I like it as not to hurt your feelings.

Signed,
Her Pessimistic Better Half

I remember Swank. Old company. Made a lot of stuff for men: Belts, cufflinks, etc.
