Ok ok... I'll make sure I'm not being crazy...

Here is a graded 8 on eBay which sold for $0.99 and $2.07 s/h... You think a 7 would bring a premium? Could be an eBay 1/1!!!!!!!!!

Love it! But those 2001 Anniversary Originals are actually PC items for me. Since they don't sell for squat, I've bought the Grace in 7, 7.5 and 8 - the only one's I've seen. Anyone ever hear a story that the Donruss executive in charge of this buyback program really didn't think collectors would care that they were 7's and 8's? I vaguely remember some sort of tale.

Bummed the Pirates and the Rays both lost. Only teams I wanted to see advance.

Already enjoying shopping for MTSS. Lots of new cards to look at!

This is a Robbie Alomar... if you want it, pay shipping and it's yours... or you can trade me for another "coaster"

I know yours was Alomar. And I think an Alomar coaster is cosmic justice - like him getting spit upon all the time.

Good morning.

Heading into the Dr office for my consultation. Getting "fixed". Wife doesn't want anymore kids, but I'm indifferent. Somehow that onus to take care of it, fell upon me :-(


-------------------------------------

Need Moustakas, Hosmer and patches.

Let me know how that goes as I am scheduled to get fixed before year's end.

Morning boys

At pt right now, then on with my day off!!

 

[clarkzac]

Well the first test of the day went better than expected. The multiple choice were very challenging, as his always are. There has only been one instance where somebody has gotten every multiple choice question right on his tests, and that's including every class he teaches. I happened to be in that class last year where somebody got all of the questions right. Unfortunately I was not the one. I'm not as worried about my test this afternoon, but I will still study a little bit after my next class

Today was just the consult. Be prepared to walk out if that sore. Scheduling the procedure for the 24th :-(
