Have you ever tried to sell a vintage bed?

Our local antique dealers don't want beds, not even solid brass ones from the '80s.
Any suggestions?

Pizza saves life of 82 year old woman. Kudos to Susan Guy!
MEMPHIS, TN (RNN) – A daily pizza delivery order likely saved a Memphis woman's life. Thanks to customer consistency and a very caring pizza delivery driver there's a happy ending to Jean Wilson's story.
Who knows how long Wilson may have stayed trapped in her house, if not for some caring Domino's employees.
It also helps that Jean Wilson is consistent.
"That's our first call of the day, always," Dale Rosado, Assistant Manager, Domino's Pizza, said.
"She always order a large thin crust pepperoni pizza with two diet cokes," Susan Guy, pizza delivery driver said.
Yes, every day. But the call didn't come Saturday, Sunday, or Monday.
Turns out the 82 year-old fell on Saturday and couldn't get up.
She also couldn't get to a phone.
So she lay inside her house helpless on Saturday and all day Sunday.
Then came Monday morning and delivery driver Susan Guy.

Bill Cosby dodges direct questions on scandal in ABC interview
Comedian Bill Cosby, accused by dozens of women of sexual assault, gave his first interview in months on Friday but evaded direct questions about the scandal that has damaged his long career.
Asked by ABC News in an interview aired on "Good Morning America" how he would answer if a young person asked him if the allegations were true, Cosby said he was "prepared to tell this young person the truth about life."
"I'm telling you where the road is out. I'm telling you where, as you're driving, you're going to go into water and it looks like it might only be three inches deep, but you and your car are going to go down," he said.
"Now you want to go here or you want to be concerned about who's giving you the message?" the 77-year-old said.
More than 40 women have accused Cosby of sexual assault, most recently writer Sammie Mays and actress Lili Bernard.

I'm gonna cheat. I have buttermilk biscuits in the freezer.
It's 37 degrees outside my back door this morning which makes it a perfect morning for baking something lovin' from the oven.
