4th prize - 1989 Donruss Robin Yount PSA 9

3rd prize - 1991 Topps Robin Yount PSA 9

2nd prize - 2005 Topps Baseball Update hand collated set (this set is loaded with rookies: Braun, Ellsbury, Zimmerman, etc.)

    Tell a joke or just say hi to carol. Say "no thanks, I'll pass" and you're still in on the action.

    The joke: There once was a man from Nantucket.... (oh wait, I cant say this one, nevermind)
    To Carol: HI!
    p.s. no thanks I'll pass.

    Sweet, I'm in!

    Thanks for the contest man!

    Thanks for the contest and congrats getting to 1000!!!

    Some folks think 3000 hits is a feat, others say 4 superbowls is something special. Not in this leauge my friends, in this leauge 1000 posts is a benchmark of one dedicated s.o.b.!!! With a can of Dew and some jerky in hand, the CU forum poster can be seen training for hours in front of their computer, overcoming supreme adversity and trouncing through countless threads like "when are my grades going to pop, this is rediculous," and "this PSA 6 was a 9 for sure!!!" that threaten the very spirit of the superstar CU poster. But he battles on, and in ever graceful and dedicated fashion, he reaches that 1000th post, and never looks back. And that my friend, is why we recognize and honor you today!!! Cheers!!!

    A Brooklyn lawyer, a used car salesman and a banker were gathered by a coffin containing the body of an old friend. In his grief, one of the three said, "In my family, we have a custom of giving the dead some money, so they�ll have something to spend over there."

    They all agreed that this was appropriate. The banker dropped a hundred dollar bill into the casket, and the car salesman did the same. The lawyer took out the bills and wrote a check for $300.

    We were dressed and ready to go out for a New Years Eve Party. Preparing to leave, we covered our pet parakeet and put the cat outside in the backyard.

    The cab arrived and when we opened the front door, the cat ran back into the house. Since the cat has a history of trying to eat the bird, I went back inside to get the cat while my wife went out to the cab.

    Not wanting the cab driver to know our house would be empty for the night, my wife explained to the driver, "He's just going upstairs to say goodbye to my mother."

    A few minutes later, I got into the cab. "Sorry I took so long," I said, "That stupid beast was hiding under the bed. I had to poke her with a coat hanger to get her to come out! She tried to take off, so I grabbed her by the neck. Then, I had to wrap her in a blanket to keep her from scratching me. But it worked! I hauled her fat rump downstairs and threw her out into the back yard!"

    Did I win?

    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?

    Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12

    Even Now
    when there's someone else who cares
    when there's someone home who's waiting just for me
    even now I think about you as I'm climbing up the stairs
    and I wonder what to do so she won't see
    that even now
    when I know it wasn't right
    and I found a better life than what we had
    even now I wakeup crying in the middle of the night
    and I can't believe it still could hurt so bad

    Did you know that During the Cold War, the USAF "lost" a thermonuclear bomb (100x more powerful than Hiroshima), when it was jetisoned over the city of Savannah, Georgia after an aircraft mishap? Incidintally, the device was never recovered, but should be safe.
