DOING A CARD SHOW TOMORROW

First one this year (usually do two or three). A dozen or so dealers. Great day out--chat with some other dealers & collectors, sell some junk off (hopefully) and pick up some things I need/want (hopefully). Gets me out of the house for the day, then take my wife out for dinner with any profit.

    Hey Matt. I live in Canada--about an hour outside of Toronto. Man it was cold and windy today--envy a Texan who gets to ride around on his riding mower in February.

    Have a sister-in law in TN and one in TX--might be good time for a visit.

    Hi eye, I actually live in Florida, born in New York, Cowboy fan, dont know how it happened but it did. Yeah, it was a brisk 76 here today. I actually sweat a little doing some work around the house. I guess I wont be making that show, its a little out of the way. image

    24 farenheit I assume? Kinda cool for TN in mid-February isn't it? Another board member from OH told me that they are having unseasonably warm weather (50-60 degrees there). Still, it was about -15 to -20 celsius with wind here today (think that is less than zero degrees farenheit). I am so glad Canada went to this ^%^*& metric system.

    Goddamn Cowboys.....I didn't mind when I thought you just lived in Texas, Matt, but now that I know you are a Cowboys fan, well.....

    Still bitter about Staubach's hail mary to Drew Pearson back in '74 playoffs to beat my Vikings. Probably have the year wrong but my hatred of the Cowboys has never faded. image

    Where abouts in FL do you live? My parents have a condo in Panama City Beach....

    Matt:

    C'mon man....I was in a good mood. image

    BTW, as a long-suffering Vikes fan I also have unfond memories of Oakland, Pittsburg, Miami and KC, so don't take my comments personally.

    Do you go to any TB Lightning hockey games?

    Eye, Its all good. No offense taken, just having some fun. I have been to 3 or 4 lightning games. Really was fun and so fast paced. Since they moved to Tampa I wont go anymore. Its not far by any means, it would just be a pain. They used to play only blocks away from me.

    Drew Pearson pushed off. No call. Would have been the Vikes first (and only) Super Bowl triumph.

    Very nice of you Mike. Are you also piloting the aircraft? And, more importantly, will alcohol be served on board?

    BTW, you changed your avatar. Remember, such acts often screw us older fellas up......

    The avatar was temporary - I was doing my Da Big'n impression.

    I was watching CBC tonight and it looked like you guys really got it bad. A huge 40 car pile up somewhere in Quebec, and a couple more in Ontario.

    Good luck with the show!

    Actually it was a 1975 semi final game that was the " Hail Mary Game " Dec. 28th, 1975, the same day Fran Tarkington's dad passed away. Tarkington found out his dad died right after the game. Talk about your bad days.

    The Cowboys played the Rams in the NFC Championship that year beating them and then losing to the Steelers in Super Bowl X.

    Besides Eyebone

    Does anyone else do shows on occasion?

    I did many many years ago. On a Saturday/Sunday - it was fun but didn't make much $.
