I just saw Seinfeld being interviewed by David Steinberg and he talked about a routine he used to do about the wanted posters with the mug shots of the criminals at the post office...it went something like "why didn't they just hold onto these guys when they took the picture?" |

Jim- may I ask you a direct question? Why do you continually say you don't care what people think of you, and that you are not on the board to make friends? Because the way I see it, I think you find some personal satisfaction in making enemies. I know not everyone can like me, but I couldn't post on the board if all day long people were attacking me. I just can't fathom the thinking behind that. |

Jim, you keep saying that you've been told not to engage me -- yet you continually do. Actually, I have had some very funny conversations about you with people offboard and none have warned me about not engaging you. They've actually found your responses enlightening and hilarious. |

Wonder what's going to happen when, by innuendo (or worse), somebody is falsely "outed" for altering cards. Eventually, someone is going to be sued for loose-talking-guess we'll just have to sit back and wait. |

Wasn't somebody who resides at a higher altitude than most of us already accused of altering cards? Nothing ever came of that. |

Just for the record, if you're trying to say that you care very little about something, the correct phrase is "I couldn't care less" as opposed to "I could care less." |

Barry, of course Jim cares that everyone dislikes him. Any human would -- it's literally human nature to care that people hate you whether you admit it or not. It's one of the things that separates us from the animals. Why do you think he's so quick to kiss up to certain posters who have previously attacked him wildly out here -- just to try to align himself with someone, anyone for comfort? I'm also sure Jim has sent you plenty of emails decrying his treatment on the board - assuming he has, why else would he send them unless the constant criticism bothered him? I think the problem is that Jim knows of no other way to communicate with others and, inevitably, he gets himself into these predicaments time and time again, in venue after venue. As such, he has to try to claim that he enjoys the hatred because, otherwise, he'd be forced to acknowledge that a) he has a problem and b) he must fix the problem. These are two things that are either too painful for Jim to accomplish or too difficult. A rough analogy would be when Pee Wee Herman flips over the handlebars of his bike, rolls on the ground and then pops up, miraculously unscathed. His immediate reaction? "I meant to do that." The speed in which Jim gets frustrated, as evidenced by his now expected and juvenile "ha ha" and "I consider the source" responses indicates that he just cannot figure out how to handle his problem in an adult, rational manner -- and instead just lashes out with non-sequiturs that are not responsive or logical. Another rough analogy especially for you: remember the guy that Elaine dated that when frustrated with her after she criticized him would say things like "you've got a big head - do birds ever fly into that gigantic head?" Same mentality. |

In the case of Jeff, its called an obsession. Apparently he has absolutely nothing else going on in his life that he ponders on and on about me, asks others not on the board about me and attributes all these thoughts to me. |

I'd still collect. I'd probably pick a couple of sets to work on and then supplement that with cards/players I just think are cool. I'd love to be able to collect 19th century stuff, but it's impossible right now. So, until everyone else picks up their ball and goes home, I'll stick to working on my Negro League master set which has become very rewarding in itself. |

In large part, what Joe says, I believe, is accurate. If the Vintage market "adjusts," I would be willing to bet the demand for cards people buy to enjoy would remain steady (or increase) and the high-grade, high-dollar (just to be high-dollar) cards would lower. |
