On August 31, 2015 -- after well over a year (and, likely, closer to two years -- or even more) away from MyLot for the simple reason that I didn't even know that it still existed (there being a long, multifaceted story why this...

Pricing Ivory

Ainsley Jo Phillips @AJ1952Chats (2332) • Anderson, Indiana 2 May 13

Does anybody know how the price is figured for ivory sculptures that are close to 70 years old? Who might be the most interested in buying ivory sculptures from the Orient? I'm looking for someone here in the USA.

My Impression Of The New MyLot Look

The way I look at it, there is life before and life after the last cash-out. Some people will decide to stay on after the last cash-out, while other people will decide to move on. If this has been nothing beyond a...

Let's Talk About Scams--On The Internet & In Real Life

Ainsley Jo Phillips @AJ1952Chats (2332) • Anderson, Indiana 4 Feb 13

Right now, my mom and I are involved in getting out from under a scam. It looks as if we're going to be successful, but I can't really talk about that scam now, as it's still on this side of going to court. Even when I'm able...

Ainsley Jo Phillips @AJ1952Chats (2332) • Anderson, Indiana 26 Dec 12

To this day, I've never outgrown thinking that it's fun to color the pictures in a coloring book, make things out of Play-Doh, squeeze baby toys and be delighted by their squeaks, blow bubbles, play with toy trains, and so on and...

How did December holiday greetings ever get to complicated? When those of us who celebrate Christmas say "Merry Christmas!" to others (especially, if we're working at a place of business such as a store or restaurant), we risk...

Ainsley Jo Phillips @AJ1952Chats (2332) • Anderson, Indiana 23 Dec 12

I'm 60 years old and can remember several times when the world as we know it was predicted to come to an end but it didn't happen. For instance, it was once predicted that, when it became 2000, computers would all go haywire...

Ainsley Jo Phillips @AJ1952Chats (2332) • Anderson, Indiana 10 Dec 10
