Boeing Surplus will occupy much of my day tomorrow. $2 chairs! Half-price tables! We are camping out in the morning, like ardent fans of a washed-up rockstar.

I doubt very much I can add anything to this succint description. Here’s this month’s pickins.
ERRANT
When I was a young apprentice and less than compos mentis
I took leave of all my senses, with a maid I fell in love
Her ringlets so entwined me, Aphrodite’s smile did blind me
Cupid’s arrow struck behind me, and her father owned a pub
It was there I met my nemesis in her father’s licensed premises
Like the Seraphim of Genesis, sat Mary Anne Maguire
Arrayed in fine apparel, astride a porter barrel
She looked the kind of girl that would fill you with desire.
