“My hypocrisy only goes so far”
I'm your huckleberry...October
The fall has always been a traditionally busy time for me. Weddings and photo shoots ramp back up now that the weather is turning cooler here in Texas. My day job switches into Q4/End of Year hurry-up mode, when all the business development folks lose their minds and...
Gypsy Queen Relics Complete!
You're going to have to excuse me while I do a little happy dance over here. The mailman just dropped off the final piece to my GQ relic puzzle. Right off the bat, I had planned on going for all the Sox relics from 2012 Gypsy Queen, I just didn't know how rare some of...
Break Pimping
I don't normally pimp group breaks, mostly because nine times out of ten they fill themselves within minutes. This one is special. Sam over at the DailyDimwit is breaking a bunch of stuff including a full box of Triple Threads. We're more than half filled, with 13...
Fantasy Baseball Wrapup
Well, with the regular baseball season coming to an end, and the playoffs about to start, that means that fantasy baseball has come to a close. A big congratulations to Derek from Tomahawk Chopping for his first place finish! Derek's record of 15-5 was also the best...
Platinum Weekend
So, after pretty much giving up on Chrome, I've thrown my collective addiction towards Bowman Platinum. I know a lot of folks are down on Platinum, citing the set for having little relevance, but I like it. It fills that "oooh, shiny" portion of my brain while at the...
Duel Woah
Well... this kind of speaks for itself. I'm just going to leave this here...
Space Shuttle Endeavor
For those that don't know, I work in an art department, as a photographer, at a NASA contractor. Believe it or not, those things go together. That combination leaves me in the odd position of being one of a handful of people with both really nice camera gear, and...
Ebay September
Been a pretty random month for purchases. Mostly stuff off ebay, and most of those were to quell my Chrome disappointment. Let's start off with another warning why you never send anything of value in a PWE (if you're a seller on ebay). Bowman Heritage Manny relic. 4...
Final JABO Break
Saying that title out loud makes me a little sad. Kyle had some truly great breaks, and was a genuine stand up guy. He may be taking a break from the hobby, but he made sure his last break was a doosy. We also swapped randomness in the end. I sent him some Royals...
Trade with Dawgbones
A couple weeks back I worked out my first trade with Richard, aka Dawgbones. I got randomized a Phillies prospect in one of Kyle's group breaks and per-emptively traded it to Richard for a relic to be named later. He had a nice Manny ginter relic that caught my eye...
