~~~Happy New Year Morning Thread~~~

[MrMet]

LB and I want to thank everyone for the well wishes. She called me yesterday at work and said she was feeling contractions so I dropped what I was doing to go grab her. 12 hours later, Henley became the first baby born in Rapides Parish in 2014. The hospital we delivered at hadn't had that honor in 10 years so they were happy to have us here.

He's 7.5 pounds and super healthy.

Happy new year, everyone. I'll post pics in a few days.

Congrats!

Good morning gents!

Happy New Year to everyone as well!

Ended the year at 89.0% Belle cards, no pick-ups yet but goal is to hit 90% this year!

Congrats Adam!

Awesome job at the 89% mark. Might be lucky to hit 90% soon if Belle stops being in recent products One thing I strive to do this year is to inventory my Felix and HOF stuff in Excel just to have on hand. I have no desire to get a high percentage of Felix cards as they will be produced for a long time (hopefully) but it would be neat to see where I am at. Eventually I want to get a few collections going similar to [MENTION=4030]michaelstepper[/MENTION] with certain ball clubs such as 500 HR club, No Hitters (would be near impossible with some of the old timers and the prices) as well as team duos/trios/more.

The 500 HR club, 400 HR club, 50 HR season, 40 HR season would be really cool, but I have neough on the table with just starting a HOF auto collection

Thanks! It'll be much easier of the stop putting him in new product but we will see if that happens in 2014. Already slowed down big time late this year.

As for the checklist, I have a crazy detailed excel checklist already guess I'm a nerd like that lol

Autos would be a fun one to do, but I think patches and/or nice looking jersey/bat would also be a fun way to go. I just updated my sig with a few patches as that has been my newer focus. Hoping to get more added to that over this year

Yeah, you super collectors are pretty crazy I had to take out super collector in my sig as it just isn't right calling myself that without going after anything and everything available. I'm more than content collecting my PC wants, but being picky with what I pick up. Right now I have no need to get everything on a checklist and would much rather pickup the stuff that appeals to my eye.

Yesterday's weather forecasted a dusting if snow, this morning 1-inch, by noon 1-2 inches forecasted and now 6+.........snowing before work should be fun.

Yikes! Drive safe...although might be "fun" in a Jeep

 

[George_Calfas]

B drives the Jeep Commander-- I will be making 4x4 tracks with the Range Rover.

In the last snow storm C and I found and empty parking lot to do donuts, but the traction control made me work for them :lol:

Congrats Adam and LB.


We got dumped on this morning with snow and more overnight. Julie still has some bug going around so sorting that case is taking longer than expected. If you haven't PM'ed me yet with your address and what you want of the base cards please to so.

 

[michaelstepper]

Wow.. For the 40hr season group I know why I never attempted something that varied.. Taking out the guys I already have it would need to include 58 more autos. Quite the list

 

[ChasHawk]

Tons of snow here today too.

Cleared the driveway earlier and we are buried again.

All three of us have had whatever this damn stomach bug is that's going around.

Erin has it at present.

 

[darrend505]

Evening all! One more day and then heading south! Any good card shops in or around Chatanooga TN?

 

[darrend505]

Or mobile, al?

 

[michaelstepper]

Being sick stinks. Worse in a kid
