Like Darren, today is my "Friday", too!

Had my phone appt with the insurance people yesterday. Had to justify that I need the surgeries and also prove that I am financially qualified. Still not sure how they think I can give them info on why I need the next three surgeries. Talk to my doctor!! :x

Will see what they say in a couple weeks when they send me their decision. Man, they are acting like I am asking for breast implants or some other cosmetic procedure. ::facepalm::

Anywho, had another student ask me where the library was, yesterday. I actually gave a straight answer instead of my usual smarta$$ response. I think I 'm losing my touch! :?

Met up with Brad (gracecollector) last night, and sat down for a face to face trade.
Traded him some Cubs cards that were not part of my PC, and got these in return. :D

Scans do the Elite card no justice whatsoever. Beautiful card in hand.

As long as we are talking about snack cakes, I am partial to the banana flavored Twinkies they sometimes have, Little Debbie Oatmeal Creme Pies, and used to love TastyCake KandyKakes.

I have been craving doughnuts lately and have to avoid the shops. My faves are maple bars, plain, and those giant Buttermilk ones that roughly resemble Sherman Tanks.

Even being /100, I've never actually seen one sell, so I'd probably bid up to around $20 for it,
which is roughly the value we placed on it for the trade. The non-auto version is /100 as well,
and I think I paid around $8 for it. They look nice together. :mrgreen:

Thanks for the well wishes guys! :D

Chas- that top AD is wicked cool looking. Nice additions to the family.

Mox- that would be an incredible experience! :lol:

Andrew- try making your goal upon your departure to go out with a bang! I recommend being as sarcastic and witty as possible! Leave a legacy. ;)

Nice for you too!!

Kids do not even think about libraries any more, I know mine do not. We have a BIG library here (and separate science and art/music libraries) and I know the tradtional library is a thing of the past. We pour a lot of resources into on-line of course.

So a Dawson #/100 GU Auto would be about $15-$20?
Actually there is a really interesting thread right now about auto values.
The prices I have paid for Dawson autos and g/u has gone up and down
like a roller coaster the last couple years. I mean, I have autos /25 that
I didn't pay close to $20 for. But a card like this that almost never pops up,
regardless of the numbering would get close to $20 at auction I think.

Especially now that you've got the HOF "prospectors" jumping on board,
I have seen cards in the last 2 months sell for WAY above what I'd pay.

Then again, I've won 3 of what I'd consider really nice cards in the last
couple weeks for the opening bid price. :?

:lol: I saw that to and found it somewhat flattering. My first thought was Vito Corlione saying something about getting some respect.
