Morning Gents, coffee is a brewin...

Those interested in SS, please either drop George a PM or leave an email address so he can begin the sorting out process...

Please remember: When you send your want list please be somewhat specific, stating that you like "X" and "Y" will get you anything.

Just want to get a jump on things since a lot of player based collectors need time to shop etc and get a handle on what their giftee needs for their collection.

Again, Thanks to George for setting this up.

Morning Dan, how goes it?

trevordchi · Aug 31, 2009

Good morning fellas. Well it's Monday again. 12 hours of picking up pissed off customers from body shops and selling them extras they either can't afford or don't need....

FUN!

Hwilensky · Aug 31, 2009

Good morning to all, and to all a good morning. Good morning gents, just taking care of my sick 4 year old, with my broken finger and sick wife. It is going to be a long, long week.

Morning.

Anyone of you have one of these? I started to go for it, but decided against it. At it's ending price, I wish I'd have continued.

Morning Dan, chippernate, trevordchi, Hwilensky. On my 3rd brew already, and getting ready for work. Should only be for a couple, maybe 3 hours today. How is everyone today?

Morning Dan, Art, Ron, Trevor, Hwilensky, chippernate.

How's things going today?

I have a dentist appointment in about an hour. Talking to a specialist about how I can be sedated to get all 4 of my wisdom teeth pulled out. One of the teeth came in perpendicular to the rest of my teeth and needs to be pulled. This would make the top tooth grow too far, so they would take that one also. And, since there is no need to have half of the teeth, just gonna pull all 4.

Should get me about 3-4 days bed rest, which will be nice, since I am starting a baseball blog and it will give me plenty of time to work on it.

What's everyone else's day look like?

Morning boys! It's finally cooling down a bit in Austin. Only going to be in the mid 90s today. I am looking forward to the 3 day weekend coming up! It was a nice weekend for me. Had my BDay yesterday and went to a nice Brazilian steakhouse. I also picked up my 50th Paul O'Neill autograph!

KC37 · Aug 31, 2009

Good morning guys - hope today goes well.

I went to pay my Verizon bill yesterday, and it turns out the Cinemax they were giving me "free for 90 days" has been billed to me, and no one was there for me to call yesterday; so I'm dealing with that today.

Then, I was dealing with THAT guy that's in everyone's fantasy football league - you know, the guy that just wants to make "suggestions" and "tweaks" 3 days before the draft, that really don't matter in the long run?

Today is the first day with students, and, as always, I get no sleep the night before. I'm on 90 minutes sleep right now. Slightly cranky, but the good face has to go on for the kids.

Anthony - I had a terrible wisdom teeth experience, so I always tell people that it can't get worse than mine. I had one crack early on, so I really had 5 impacted wisdom teeth. I was under for the pulling, but my entire jaw ended up bruised for my first day of college. Fun. So, yours will definitely be better than that...

KC- That sucks bro. I have already talked to the dentist who is going to perform the surgery and reading through the list of things that could go wrong is rough. I really hope everything goes ok, but I do know they will have to break the bone around the parallel tooth because that is the ONLY way they can take that one out. I won't be ALL the way under, as there is no military hospital to have the surgery at, but I should be out of it enough to not notice. Luckily, no cracks yet and the way the tooth is it hasn't resulted in any impacted teeth....yet.

No, Austin doesn't have one of those. I have been to the one in Memphis though. The place I went to is a smaller chain called Estancia Churrascaria. So good. So very good. They had me at bacon wrapped

Pastretta · Aug 31, 2009

Good morning everyone! It will be good night for me in a little. First night off from grave shifts and surprisingly the night has blazed right past! I busted some A&G retail this weekend and I had some OK luck for retail.

The Highlights:

Fred Lewis Bat
Grady Sizemore Jersey
Melvin Mora Bat
Ubaldo Jimenez NNO Mini 28/50

Probably the last ones I break unless I feel the itch to bust on my way home. I'm going to try for a semi-master set and pick-up whatever I can from eBay.

Seems to me that if your cereal is dragging down your mondays, you might want to switch brands... :lol:

High fiber diets are for the birds. At least they work.

beefycheddar · Aug 31, 2009

Morning all, long weekend for me with shower and fantasy drafts yesterday. Oof am beat, going to try to cut out of work early and get marriage license again. Today is the last day my fiancee isn't working, so if we can today will make my life a lot easier.

A_Pharis · Aug 31, 2009

By the way. If Art doesn't have a mailday today, I will be severely disappointed.
