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

[ChasHawk]

Good morning George, Allen, Tim!!!

Tim - halfway to where?

Richard - thanks bud. I tested it yesterday, and the only thing off was the pH, so I got some increaser/decreaser.

The end of this week!!

Bad thing is we're going camping, I hate camping!

Srsly? I love camping!! Tough to do now with the baby, but I love building a fire, cooking outside, fishing.

Man, I miss camping! Haven't been in probably twelve years or so. Used to go to the backcountry of Yosemite every summer.

Erin & I used to go to this little campground in Michigan 3 or 4 times a year. Of course that was when we lived downtown.
Now we live in the area people go to for camping. :lol:


Tim - I go about 6'3" 310 myself, and the wife and I sleep comfortably on a queen-size air mattress. You just gotta splurge for a good one.

Any new pickups? Anybody?

More cool additions, Art!

If my memory doesn't fail me, I will grab that Piazza item today at the lcs.

Thanks, have a couple more incoming, with 2 1/1's(plates), and 1 of them is auto'd.

Morning All.

I love camping! Have this weekend off from baseball, but we play Friday, so camping is a no go this weekend. Going to have to get out in July for sure. We have a queen air matress with a base that gets us off the ground...we have a very large tent to fit it in too :lol:


Dave,

Art, did you snag one of those finest 1/1 autos?

Richard - thanks bud. I tested it yesterday, and the only thing off was the pH, so I got some increaser/decreaser.

Is urine acidic or basic? :lol:

Depends what you're drinkin' there, Jesse!

Ok, the lack of enthusiasm in the MT this morning has forced me to show more scans!

You brought this upon yourselves!

First, Kevin sent me a redemption for a cool Matt Cain auto/jersey. Topps fulfilled it in just over two weeks!

Then, a couple of cheap used book autographs I picked up recently. The Lott was $10, and the Neilsen was only $2!

 

[JackLondon]

What's that you say? You want to see more odd autographs?

Well, okay!

Two different Jimmy Carter signed books (Yes, I said Jimmy Carter!)

And another signed book of one of my favorite peaceniks, Eugene McCarthy

 

[Pinbreaker]

Andrew, that Cain came in quick.. Are you going to collect him? If so, you might want this card..

Thanks again for the redemption, Kevin!

Too rich for my blood, Kevin. I keep any Cain cards I pull, but am not actively collecting him. I did get a sweet auto /35 of him from the Flair MT break awhile ago. Good pitcher!

Good Morning Gents!!! Just starting the last day off before getting back into the actual work week....NOT looking forward to it :lol: Way too much time off to feel good about going back. Oh well...vacation is now exhausted so I won't get my 176 hours back until October 1st For those that hate camping...no worries there. I absolutely LOVE camping...but what I really hate is tearing it all down and packing it back into the car. How is it that when you leave with less stuff it never fits back in the same as when you had more stuff??

Hey Alex, reminds me of when our family used to go camping. On the last couple of days of the trip, my sister used to practically force feed us leftover food to make more room in the cars.

Made for a really enjoyable end to the trip... :benson:

PS Alex, did you see my cool books on the previous page?

Sure did...VERY nice picups dude!!!! Great job with the 2 Carters...how many do you have?? I really like the Leslie Neilson one...he was in some pretty hillarious movies for their time.

Good morning! Great books Andrew. And cool cards you got. Hoping to pick up a cool Wake card in a couple hours.

Art- no word on the Bay yet.

I posted this late last night, so I'll post it again. Went fishing yesterday for the first time this summer and my youngest son Jared (3 yrs old) caught his first fish! It was too cool.

Those are the only Carter autographs I have.

The Leslie was an impulse buy. I figured, hey, $2.
