============ The Morning Thread ============

[pghbuccos]

Dave (p)- Thank you. I thought the piece of football was a cool touch too. The Timelines is a nice card too. You mentioned awhile ago that you had to upgrade to photobucket pro, but that you were going to try to start a site. How's that coming along? I think people with incredible collections (this includes you) should definitely have a website to showcase their collections. I don't know **** about making a site, so I don't know how difficult it is, but I was just wondering if that was still the plan.

Joe thanks for the kind words about my Bay collection. as for the website I started working on a freewebs site and it just got to annoying so I gave up. I don't know anything about making a site either and at first it seemed easy but then I was just having too much trouble. so for now I will just stick to photobucket pro.

Josh - WOOHOO!!! What an awesome week of news, first Julie, now the paid case and a draft to finish it off :mrgreen:

Joe - I am a HUGE fan of card tricks...know quite a few myself. I can also solve a rubik's cube under 3 minutes EVERY time. Fun to show people who don't expect it...I have won free ice cream and a pitcher of beer due to that "skill" :lol:

 

[ChasHawk]

I'd like to develop a site at some point as well, Joe. I need some work on my computer skills first

Also, there is exactly 1 card trick that I do well that is based on math. At some point I would like to learn more.

I used to just peel the stickers when I was a kid and solve the cube...

:lol: The one I have at work is well used so I always get blamed for doing just that. Talk about a useless talent...although I am a huge fan of useless trivia and talent, makes the awkward times even better

Alex- I floated the rest of the case right now since payments aren't due in full until the 26th. I didn't want to miss out on snagging one at $530 for D&A plus they are sending some packs of APOH to bust too. I'll bust those before we do the case and give the hits to the proper team owners.

Dave (p)- I wish I could offer some assistance. I tried using freewebs as well. It started off really easy, but then it went downhill. :lol: I would love to have my own site one day. Best of luck to you. I hope you find a way to get one going. I would be a frequent visitor to your site.

Alex- That's awesome! I can do a cube in just about 2 minutes. I normally only bring it up if I'm at someone's house or out somewhere and someone has one. I always get a kick out of people saying "it's impossible" and then solving it. :lol: I used to almost always carry a deck of cards with me. Of course I was accused of having a trick deck even after I would let people thouroughly inspect it. So now I just use their own deck of cards. It works better for the tricks now too.

Charlie- I would be a frequent visitor to your site as well. I hope you get one going. I'll probably have to pay someone so that I can have a site. :lol: I don't use math card tricks because I've never cared much for math (sorry George ).

Charlie that Transformers DVD should be awesome. I didn't even know it existed and have added it to my Netflix queue as well as season's 2 & 3.

Josh that's great that you ordered the case and got bonus packs. Sunday night is fine with me for the team draft.

Dan that is the only way I could ever solve the Rubix Cube also. I still have one somewhere that I "solved". the stickers went on pretty smoothly and you really can't tell.

I want to say I was 5 or 6 at the time...I think I could probably do it now :ugeek:

I was probably 10 or 11 when I did it. maybe I should go out and buy one and give it another try.

 

[MojoDan]

I dont know of anyone that does a better hobby site than gracecollector. Brad is just awesome at logos/card stuff as a whole...

Josh - WOW!!! That is awesome of you man!!! Thanks a ton...I am seriously SUPER PUMPED for our break. It makes a HUGE difference that we all know each other durning the breaks...makes the small talk TONS of fun

 

[MojoDan]

Same here. I am hoping for a good draft pick with my slot but I could care less if works out otherwise...

 

[wideright]

Wow, only took me all day to get on here and actually have a few minutes to read the thread. How's it going fellas? I saw some nice pickups... Joe, Dave, Charlie (bday present). Nice ones guys.

Josh- money on its way in a sec.

Interesting fact of day (for me). Mickey Mantle was from Oklahoma, actually born about an hour and 20 minutes from where I live. I read it in the Mantle piece that TK sent for "winning" his contest (thanks Chas! ) I wonder if the town has some sort of memorial for him there. I'll have to look into it.

 

[muskiesfan]

I'm in the same boat Dan. I am only concerned with getting one team. As long as I get that team, I am not worried about the rest. :lol:

Hopefully if you get one it comes with the story sheet too. Enjoyed reading it. I need to read more baseball books.

Alex- PM Sent.

George- Yes, enemies we shall be on Sunday. I just hope we can all still be friends after Da BEARS win.
