You can be the owner of it

And then you can buy even more

I still dont think I have ever opened one

Seems like a fair trade

That was a nice one

Don’t have any of aristes cards except for flagship Topps whereas Alvarez after I get the return back I will have a pretty valuable stash. Is it a good thing or bad thing they won’t be playing for awhile. I figure they can’t go down in value because they can’t slump from the start but they also can’t have that electrifying season that makes their prices double.

Yep but now Romine is no longer a Yankee but still part of my pc.

Spuds, I see MLB Network is showing the classic Cubs/Phillies game from 1979 where both teams scored 20 runs. Maybe there is hope for what you mentioned earlier.

I would love to see the Don Larsen perfect game from start to finish.

It's funny watching the game and seeing Tim McGraw's dad on the mound.

I usually record the train symbol, type of train, direction, time, and railroad in a small book so I can use them for the description of my photos.

I also have a database I'm working on (switching over from Infopath forms) that lists every locomotive number I have seen including railroad, type of loco, manufacturer, train symbol it was on, time/date, train symbol origin/destination, passenger train name, etc.

Yes and yet there is not a Southern thing about Maryland.

You can't get great sweet tea, they have license plates front and back like Northern States, there is no car tax (originated from slavery tax), they didn't secede from the Union, no Southern accent.

But I'm not a fan of his or the Reds, so why would I start a thread on him?

What do you think my name is soxfanguy?

Opening Day is usually what I spend the last of my money on at the National as by Sunday they are blowing them out like $22 a box. That's about all of the money I have left by that day.

Saw a new report out that people with type A blood are more vulnerable to the coronavirus.

Type A+ right here.

Hanging in there. Went on a hunt for TP last night. Came up empty handed. My mom was upset I went out. She is still going to work and isolating in the evenings. I still have to run her dinner over and put it on her back porch. That really stinks because we used to go on walks every evening (minus Tuesday) together. I haven't been able to go to any of the shelters or community meals. Hoping this passes by May so we can get back to our normally scheduled lives.

I hope everyone is staying healthy. And, sane.

Oh no! Better work from home.

I have O+, thankfully.

I hope my kids sleep in this morning. Youngest had his alarm set for 5:45am for some reason. I really need to start checking that thing before bed. I got him back to sleep.

I have been able to work from home so far. Did a couple of trainings. The one was really good. In the mornings, I have been making a really nice breakfast for the boys (hubby included). Dinners as usual. I have been organizing things. Cleaned out my closet, organized all the cabinets in the kitchen, made a list of food in the downstairs freezer, and am trying to stay sane.
