My Cousin Chubby acted irrationally when he got the appraisal of Uncle Taul's post card collection back from the auctioneer.

Thirty eight dollars as a memento, no commercial value, a quaint remembrance of a time bygone.

I heard Chubby sat back by the fire and one at a time burned off all the post cards, records of Uncle Taul's travels and adventures, one at time while he drank a couple of quarts of Miller Lite beer.
