What we have here in the bookstore is *** humongous safe, uh, that it has been here since the 19 twenties on this particular property in the midst of our renovations or the property. The past couple of years there was this friend right here and as you can see it's big and it's heavy. We honestly have no idea what's in there. We've been guessing among ourselves what might be in there making up some silly fun answers, but we don't really know what's in there. So does anybody who's got the safe cracking skills or special abilities or anything like that? We want you to try and come and see if you can get in it. But the other stipulations that if it's something that's like, just totally gross and disgusting, the way out the person can take it off. We don't even want it.
