"Don't hold your farts in. They can travel up your spine and into your brain and that's where shitty ideas come from."
Never said this was highbrow people.
A couple weeks ago I completed my first trade with the one, the only... The Diamond King!!! He's starting up a refractor collection witht he goal of reaching 1,000 come years end. Any and all refracs. Good players, shitty players. Even shitty sports like basketball and football.
So within the healthy selection of Mets I received included a stack of Wrights and a plethora of Piazzas! Both of which contained enough new cards to help me reach a couple minor milestones in each collection.
Minor Milestone #1- 600th Piazza!
After all was said and done, I ended up with 647, with 70 new Piazzas coming from this trade. Number 600 came in the form of a 2007 Topps "Hit Parade" Inching me ever so closer to 1,000 Piazzas, I want to try and get some pictures of my favorite one up on the side page to help spice it up a bit. That'd be a neat project one rainy day.
Minor Milestone #2- 200th David Wright
One of 9 Wrights included which was good enough to bring me to 201 total and this 2007 Topps Heritage happened to be number 200! I really like the '57 design. The 2 different font colors kindda freak me out a bit, but hey, whatevs.
Kevin, thanks again for the trade! Any McGwire inserts and refracs will be on a pipeline to your mailbox!

Nice milestones. That's good info about the fart. It explains a lot about my ideas!
ReplyDeleteJust ask my wife, I NEVER hold a fart in... and now you gave me another reason (a good one too) not to hold them in..
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the card milestones as well ....Joe
Glad some of them found a good home. Oh, and like the 2 commenters before me, i can't resist mentioning the fart line... Classic! My 13 year old son will love that one!
