Well, I had a nice little mail day today. First was an Eddie Rosario Chrome Auto. I know he's supposedly suspended the first 50 games of the season, but I still have hopes for the kid. Then there were three 8x10s, all signed by members of the HOF. All three were/is prolific signers, but I got a great deal on them. They are of Bobby Doerr, George Kell, and Bob Feller. By the time I would have paid to print a Doerr 8x10, bought the stamps and envelopes, it would have been around $6, plus just buying one is less work than mailing my own. I bought the Feller to replace the one I currently have because my current one is 8x11. Not 8x10 or 8.5x11, but 8x11. And finally, George Kell, sadly he passed away a few years before I got into the TTM game. The Doerr and Kell are both inscribed with HOF 86 and 83 respectively. Finally, my last piece of mail was a nice TTM return. I really enjoy it when star players still take the time to respond to TTM requests. Yesterday I had Calvin Johnson, and today I had my first ever NBA return from Dirk Nowitzki

My mail the last two days have just been MST3K DVD's. Volume 9 & The Wild World of Batwoman.

My bro & I swapped out the shower head last night too.

Sometimes being at work is easier, but it's not nearly as enjoyable!

oh so true. Went out at lunchtime and hit redbox and picked up the hobbit and superman. Gonna watch superman tonight for our daddy daughter movie night. Avery ate a little lunch and i laid her down a little before 1. And she fell asleep. But it sucked having to wake her at 230 to come get alie. Shes not the type to fall back asleep in the car, unfortunately. But i dozed a bit during her nap, but woke up with a headache. I thought naps were supposed to be helpful...

and someone mentioned Pacific King B discs in the 90s thread, and i log on just now and my ebay bar is filled with Bagwell King B discs just listed. Coincidence?

For those that didn't catch last nights post, here's mail I received yesterday. Scanner is still down, so you have to live with iPhone pics.

This is a Profar Sepia auto /75 I picked up for $16, here on our transaction board.

This one was a gift from some members of a certain, daily thread. Many thanks to those guys. It's my first auto if him in my Royals PC and I absolutely love it!

Totally diggin' the Bo Jackson auto.:cool: I always wonder what his stats would've ended up looking like if he'd been able to stay healthy.

Good Morning Gents! Finishing up some coffee then getting ready to head out for work.

I have to go to work to finish up my coffee.:D

Bored. Made a new signature.

This guy approves of the new sig, Brad.:cool:

Today was a good day in the sweepstakes department for my wife. She had a knock on the door and it wound up being UPS with an XBox 360 Kinect she had won a few months ago. It's has two Disney themed games with it. She then gets online and promptly wins a years subscription to Netflix!!:eek::D
Hopefully the lucky streak continues tonight when I buy our Mega Millions tickets. The current jackpot is up to $400M.;)

I don't believe in coincidence :)

We are getting ready to go out to dinner. This is the first date night I've had with my wife, in 7 months. It's off to our favorite Chinese place, then off to pick up the last couple of items for gifts.
