I work in a supermarket, and we get our weekly magazines stocked on 
Tuesday. By 6:00, register 5 (the busiest) had none left so I moved 
some over from register 11 (currently used only for training) I tore 
a cover slightly in the process; yup, it was Ron with the torn cover. 
I left it up rather than putting it in the damaged-goods pile because 
I figure any Ron fan will understand.
