After a successful final, final sale, I cleared out my warehouse and contacted the phone company, to abandon the phone number I have used continuously since 1975. Going back that far—forty-three years—only my son and daughter have been with me longer. I suppose in my subconscious somewhere, the “ghost” of 226-0116 still rings occasionally, but . . . no longer here on earth.
Left to Right: Cathy Opie, James Opie and Robert Granger toast retirement at the opening night of James’ final sale.
Ways to access a wide array of writings will be shared both in this website and one I am now developing, devoted not at all to “getting and spending” (buying and selling) but to assessing life’s ever-deepening meanings and purposes.
And if any of you happen to have older Oriental rugs you need to sell or donate to a charity? While 226-0116 is gone, I remain and perhaps able to help.
My new email address: jamesopie@outlook.com.
Warm regards and ongoing thanks,
James Opie
