Default National Updates???

Will anyone be posting regularly from the National this year for those of us who cannot attend? Happenings, photos, member hook-ups, fist fights, sissy fights and the like? Just curious and thanks!

I will have my Iphone, Camera and laptop on hand. Some of the stories I have heard and the people we meet will be interesting to say the least.

Can't wait I will be leaving in the morning. We should Start a thread called 2010 National Headlines on wednesday. It can be like TMZ for us cardboard junkies.

Here's a little pre-National news flash for you: Paparazzi already starting to gather in the lobby of one of the Mariotts.

Hmmm, maybe that's why the folks at the Marriott gave me Tom Bodett's number when I called for reservations.

Default Signed Pre-WW I baseball cards

Please let me know if anyone sees any. I am willing to offer a little spending cash to anyone who can help facilitate any additions to my collection.

Personally I still use a Big Chief and Crayolas. If you know what I am talking about bless your heart and pass the gravy. I don't think I can upload the images though .

A couple of years ago one of the board members did a great job videoing the Convention, showing collectors and also many of the glass topped displays with the cards in them. Hopefully either he (sorry can't remember who it was) or someone else will do something like that again. I know some collectors weren't thrilled about being filmed while talking about cards or life in general but many of us really enjoyed it. It may still be on you tube, not sure.

A Confederacy of Dunces is one of the funniest books ever. Big Chief tablets figure prominently.

Leon seems more socially adept than Ignatius, though.

Had plenty of each but my mom would never spring for the box of 64 crayons with the built in sharpener. She would say, "Boys don't use Fuschia." She had a point. Thanks mom!
