I guess compared to a slab , it has a lot of give , I have never been inside the post office to see, but I remember a few threads about slabs being damaged by some kind of rollers they use to move the mail around ?
I guess when going through these rollers the Slabs just crack , whereas Chucky is allowed to bend and move without showing much stress .
prscott933, if the DEA come knocking on your door, deny knowing anything and you're all good.
So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts
<< <i>i just took a closer look at chuck in better lighting. the top two corners are looking real bad. hopefully it'll show up in the scan. >>
Just as a side note: After I scanned Chuck, he went into the envelope and was mailed the next day. While I didn't look very closely at the card, I didn't notice corner wear.
Not saying it wasn't there, just didn't notice anything. So, any obvious damage must have occured while in transit.

due to more bad weather and chuck being a wussy his photo shoot got cut short and he did not make it to the Negro League Baseball Museum or Kauffman Stadium as planned. However, he did have some exciting times
Chuck started off by checking out my spectrometer
Then he made a stop on my new grill that is getting too little use due to this dang weather and my old grill
Chuck and I then admired our next batch of beer. Yummy! Irish Stout!
Chuck stopped by my Broncos bear and then decided to brag about how he hit a game winning homerun at the 1985 NLCS. I quickly corrected him!!!! LIAR!!
Chuck finished off his day by chatting with Albert (not the Pujols type)

What exactly is this contraption? Is it your time machine or something you use to make beer?
Either way, Chuck seems to like it. Maybe you can take him back in time to teach him exactly how to hit the first baseman with the ball instead of throwing it to the fans behind the first base foul line. ( Sorry Chuck )
What are you up to with EM and particles at relativistic energies?
After all this excitement, Chuck may not be very interested in what I have planned...

i was measuring the radius of particle travel of some relativistic particles that i was flowing through a magnetic field. i wrote those up there so i could visualize the correlations between r, mass, B and q
i love my chalkboard i hate white boards...

I though it was the equation on how to determine a PSA 8 to a PSA 8.5
For the numbers geeks: Chuck has travelled 6309 miles (not including him dumpster diving and strip club incidents, or the indiscretions suffered at the expense of the furry creatures he met) in what, 26 days...Lots of road time for Good ole' Chuck
Next MONTH? So he's saying that if he wins, the best-case scenario is that he'll be paying for it two weeks after the auction ends?

Nice.
I think the equation for determining PSA 8 vs PSA 8.5 is best captured with a magic 8 ball.
Is there any way I can get Knobby on 10/4? I'll take him to my wedding so he can participate in the festivities and we'll get some good photos! >>
October 4th? That's a long way off.
I don't see a problem with that as long as there are no pictures of you, Chuck and your wife on the first night of your honeymoon....sicko >>
somewhere in there is a bad joke about sloppy seconds and a crappy second baseman.... >>
Well, Knoblauch couldn't even get to first base, and now he's gonna have to watch someone head for home
Looking for Jonny Gomes cards, especially Triple Threads and printing plates. Will consider all cards, though. Got something? Contact me at c_u_l_1@yahoo.com
My guess, if you try to take pictures of Chuck on the dancefloor at the reception, he can stick around and get some pictures with you signing the divorce papers as well.
The best pitch to start a hitter off with is always strike one.

Then I'm acutally worried about you for many different reasons. In order for a marriage to work, she is not suppose to like anything you do. Too much togetherness is a very bad thing.

Collecting PSA graded Steve Young, Marcus Allen, Bret Saberhagen and 1980s Topps Cards. Raw: Tony Gonzalez (low #'d cards, and especially 1/1's) and Steve Young.
Chuck is here, but someone wants to speak to him before I send him off to his next spot. I will be trying again tomorrow (and the next day...and so on) until I can convince Chuck to go to the meeting. I just hope the other party is agreeable to the photo once I talk to him.

Chucky is still in Milwaukee. He went on a brewery tour at Sprecher and hasn't left the beer tent. He is going to try to have his meeting again today and if he can't get in this week, he's going to be back on the road. Chucky may be a bit intoxicated, but he's safe and in good hands.

Originally yes, but at his request I bumped him down the line.
Also, the card will be going to Gumbyfan next. We changed it due to a really cool "surprise" he may be able to do with the card
