Re: Red Sox are exciting to watch right now (SOMETIMES)
Of course you should watch them, but having hopes of any playoff posssibilities is not realistic. Last night's game should ring the final bell that the team is going nowhere. Story, (as predicted) adds zip to the team., as will Sale. Do the players look excited? They do their little silly dance if they get a W/O win, this… -
Re: Strange bent penny
"Mint damage", of the kind that everyone is interested in (the kind that people are prepared to pay extra money for) is damage that can only happen to a coin during the production process.

Re: Taken at Yellowstone today
My wife and I took our first trip there in 2005. We were so addicted, Yellowstone was our yearly vacation for the following 3 years.

Re: Will 1980's PSA Set Collecting Take Off
Schmidt> While I totally understand your point, I think your numbers are off on the 82F stuff. Right now, 82F wax boxes typically go for $80 or so. While you are right that this is less expensive than many current (2002) unopened boxes, my question is will this still hold true 20 years from now? Or once the rave over that…
