Morning boys. At home and taking it easy today. Recovering from a emergency angiogram.z(cardiac catheterization) Cardiologist yesterday base on some numbers and my recent past history, he thought it was best to look inside the heart and the arteries surrounding the heart. Well everything turned out fine and nothing looked to out of place for a
50 year old kid and is packing about 20-30 more then I should have on me.
I have to not lift anything over 5 lbs with my right hand until Friday since they went in thru my right wrist.Today the area is really sore and my hand and wrist is blue. But that is from the sterilization medicine they used to prep the skin to insert the catheter to look in to my heart.

So now it is on to the lungs next since the heart is definitely not the issue.
Chest x-ray confirmed that I don't seem to us my lung or lungs correctly at times. I have to go see a pulmonologist since they think I have a Pulmonary Edema http://www.medicinenet.com/pulmonary_edema/article.htm

I do take Aspirin and have some high blood pressure issues as well. Also work in a hot dusty (sometimes) area too.

Been an strange morning got up to early and I was bored. So I drove around for an hour from Ft Worth, Hurst to Arlington. So from 9-10 I drive around for Nothing! I wanted to check out a couple of card shops&comic shops i hadn't been to in awhile but they open at 11 on Saturday and one was closed for inventory for the weekend. I didn't want to wait for them to open so went from store to store.
Wasn't meant to be so I went to the Library which has a kickbutt selection of CDs and Blu Rays so I saved money and am entertained.

I have the Internet why didn't I plan this better I thought but that was supposed to be part of the spontaneity. Had to be home by 12 so I could watch some college football.

Those are nice cards.

I find myself making sure Bagwell is in the set of each card I post - partially to see the cool Bagwell cards you'll post, but maybe to see if I will ever stump you. At some point i'm going to run out of different sets to post. Something tells me that our collections have a ton of overlap...

It seems everyone and theirs kids have some kind of box break going on eBay right now. Some are ok deals and others are just plain to much risk involved. I have done 4 from 4 different people. For me the price was ok but I did not hit anything to give a $hit about though. I would buy from the ones I have gotten in on, but most of the ones that come up on my recommended items seems they have way to much inherit risk too.

Some more rain here right now.
If you look on Weather.com, find Panama City, you'll see that the cloud is centered right over my house.:(
Richard - Hoping they figure out the problem and prescribe a big dose of cardboard with baseball players on it to fix you up.:D

Went out and mowed the yard at 11 this morning. Didn't think it was all that hot, but mostly humid. After I got done I checked the temp and it was 100. Ouch. Hate Kansas sometimes.

*sigh...

I can't say I'm "upset." We clearly didn't deserve to keep him here. That said, I'm kinda sad.

Not to mention, Leonhardt is on the bubble to make the Raiders roster. I think I may just go to bed for a few hours...

How exactly do Topps online redemption cards work? Is there a code on the card? Do you get to keep the redemption card?

Scratch off the back to reveal the code. Enter the code on the redemption site. Wait 6-18 months for whatever they replace it with because they couldn't get your guy to sign. That about sums it up :)

Yes, you keep the card.

Thanks for the answer, at least I get to keep the redemption card. I'm just going to have to get two so I can have one unscratched. Dawson should be a pretty reliable signer, hopefully I won't have any problems with Topps although I have read many a horror stories on here about other people's experiences with them.

Just color it back in with a silver crayon :)
