Yeah I was shocked to pull it. I’m just glad it was in good shape. I’m thinking it could be a solid 9. Centering is good on it surprisingly.

I pulled 70 cards out I am thinking of grading. I still have 18 boxes of top loaded cards to look through.

You could easily do glen's job. I've been to his work and he does practically nothing.

All of a sudden my son is into UNC and wants to go there. He watched the ACC Baseball Tournament all weekend and was happy when they won.

I always enjoy being reminded why I hate staying with my Mom and going to Jersey. I swear she gets worse and worse towards my Step Dad every time we go there.

Wildwood sucks now too. Constant smell of pot on the boardwalk.

I was going to ask my Mom if I could stay at her house the 1st Friday in June as the Long Island parade I have the next day is an early one and I'd have to get up at 1AM to make it from here. That will make for a very long day since I'm going to a wetdown and 2 more parades afterwards. I think I'll just get a hotel somewhere in Jersey instead.

FT JR's team won their game Saturday while we were gone. One of the lower level callups walked it off to win 13-12 in the bottom of the 3rd. His team is now 8-2. Final 2 games are Tuesday and Thursday this week.

After that is the All Star travel team which I didn't even volunteer him to try out for.
