Show us something cool that you own. Preferably something kind of unusual.

My company collects magnets any time we go anywhere. Here's one wall of our kitchen where you can see them on the fridge, the door and window frames, and tracing across the ceiling. The ceiling line goes to the opposite wall where we have about the same number on some magnet boards. We have around 350 magnets on display now from tons of cities, about 30+ states, and over 20 foreign countries, and the collection continues to grow.

So what do you have? Show me something cool.

Amazing Spider-man 50 in Near Mint Grade. There are less than 20 of them like this in the world.

Why are there less than 20?

Because it's a certified 9.4 out of 10 grade. Most comics aren't this good when they are printed because of flaws in the mfg. process. This book is 45 years old on top of that.

I just sold 12 of those in a garage sale and made a killing. I got $.50 each for them.

What part of the shuttle is it from? Is it one of those fascinating heat tiles?

Yeah
Black ceramic.
Really wish I could take a pic, but like I said...

About 1'by 1', and about 2" thick.

A buddy of mine who is huge into astrophysics and stuff says I could hold it on one side and take a blowtorch to the other, and never feel it. Never tried it.

if you're ever in a building that's on fire and can't get out, lay underneath the tile.

What?!? You're killing me.

If anyone has any comics and wants a grade and $$. Value shoot me a pm or post it. I've got experience with rare comics. Especially Marvel.

1981 Revell Fokker DR-1
I bought it at a swap-meet some years back. I will pas it down to my kid & hopefully by then it will be worth more than the $25.00 I payed for it.

If you could make a suit out of that stuff, it'd be a great way to rob a bank. Just set the place on fire, walk in, put all the money in a bag.

I guess you'd need a bag made out of the stuff, too.

That is amazing!

How much CC money would it take to buy it?

of course then you're stuck with a bag full of quarters because you burned all of the paper money...

I guess it's not a foolproof plan.

First we must clone the piece of tile until we have enough to complete the plan!

Calling on all the CP scientists to make this happen!
