Good day all. Or not. I had a bad feeling about today when the boss didn't call with the day's schedule by 9 am. Laid off today. Pretty much permanently. Feels kinda good as I was tired of the travel involved in that job, but never a good feeling of uncertainty. So I need to make myself feel better, even if just for today. The question is which will work better: finally picking up some of those overpriced scraps from Burbank or guzzling down rum like its my new job? :?


That stinks sorry to hear about the job cut. I vote one scrap from Burbank and some rum.

Have any of you guys ever seen a Dane Cook show in person? He'll be down here in February and I was thinking of going.

You should definitely go. No more or less funny in person, but it is a great time.

Sorry to hear the news Andy. Hopefully you have a nest egg to live off for a while.

I say buy some cards from Burbank. I know they have some stuff I'm drooling over.

My vote is rum, or hell even cheap ass beer.....I say this because it is 99.9% certain that those cards you want from burbank will still be there when you get a new higher paying job, lol.....so why break the bank for them now when you never know if you will need the money down the road...

BU is indeed Boston University. They are the only University in America with a dedicated undergraduate Archaeology program, they are quite a big deal and so is the journal. No worries, my submission only needs to be 40 pages, of which I have 15 :lol:
Archaeology should be easy for you , didn't you plant those items when you were young :?: :?: :?:

I'm definitely thinking about it. I've got nothing else to do that night so why not?

Ok, I skipped Burbank for now and finally decided to pull the trigger on this (crazy reasonable at $99 DLVD and as close as I'll get to the real deal). Now for the rum

Dave - Awesome Quad Prime!! You know I love that set. Its too bad Bay was not in TOTT. Do you mind divulging how much? It seems the nicer TOTTs sell well no matter the player.

thanks Charlie and I was amazed that it only cost me $15 delivered. I set my snipe for $28 so half price isn't so bad. I really wish Bay was in the set as well.

Andy sweet Aaron auto.

Evening all. Thought I had found a new relics for my set, but the guy had listed about 50 that I already had.

GC if you search for the set he has a lot of autos listed! If your looking for upgrades!
