Yep, I took a couple of magic books out of the library at Lincoln Center back in 84 before moving. Accidently packed them and had them in storage for years. Mailed them back. Didn't give them a check though, I'm poor.

This reminds me of a story.
A friend of mine, his dad quit a paper route as a kid and he kept the last week's collection money without sending it in to the paper. This must have bothered him for decades, because when he was 70+ years of age or so he sent the money in to the paper with a letter of explanation. I remember reading this in the news and telling my friend, hey, this guy in the news has the same name as your dad. We both thought that was a funny coincidence. Turns out it WAS his dad, but his dad had kept this a secret ... at least until it got into the news. I guess he should have sent the money in anonymously.

Reminds me of the story of a young child who found his grandpa's shoe repair ticket. Unfortunately, 60 years on, his grandad had passed away ... but behold the shoe repair shop was still there, and the grandson still had the ticket!??
The child went into the shop and produced his grandad's ticket. Do you still have these shoes he asked??? To which the assistant answered ... well, of course, they will be ready next week ... |

So it took the shop 60 years and one week to repair the shoes? I don't think I'll take my pairs there for any repairs!
