RAOK Alert - feeling very thankful!

So I get a PM the other day from board member "jbox", real name Jason. It's this guy:

Great avatar!

Jason tells me he's got something he thinks I'll like, and that it belongs in my collection. So I shoot him my address, and today this arrives:

umm.... wow. What a card! For those that don't know, the Aqueous Test cards are pretty stinkin' rare, and the ones that pop up aren't always in the greatest condition. I've been lucky enough to land a few of these, but none this nice. At some point I was going to send one in for authentication's sake, and also to add to my registry. Scratch that off the list.

Jason, thanks. Fantastic gesture, and I'm deeply appreciative.

Geordie

Geordie was a good boy this year and santa came early.

Congratulations Geordie.

That was immensely generous of Jason.

Merry Christmas!

Geordie ... good for you ... you deserve it. Jason ... you are one of the good guys on the board!

Wow, very nice of him! Those cards don't show up very often, so to give one away is very generous. Then again, if that card belongs in a certain collection, I guess it'd be yours, so this is just helping to maintain the balance in this, our card collecting cosmos....

(yes, it was good stuff

)

Geordie is a true fan/collector and has a passion and focus unlike any other. I knew this was his card as soon as I saw it raw. I was really hoping for a 10 and thought it had a shot. I loved the Butler thread and am happy to have contributed just a small piece of a great collection!
