Once this board gets a plumber and an optimologist, we're going to start a co-op.

Barry, when the co-op starts, members would exchange their particular skills. For example, after the board electrician rewired your kitchen and bathroom lighting you would reciprocate by telling him how unethical he was ... In my case, I have no special skills and would reciprocate by giving a hearty handshake or letting him pet my dog.

both the handshake and allowing the dog to be petted exhibit the wonderful
skills of altruistic behaviour! You are a great asset to the co-op!

all the best

Just to get this straight beforehand, it would the handshake OR the petting of the dog, not both. I'm not trying to be another Mother Teresa here.

I get it!
still, handshake or petting the dog sounds like at least a Gandhi anyway!

David,
No need to go looking for a Plumber. I have been wading through some of this poop that comes on here for the last couple of years. Jeff

The best thing about "ethicists" is that they are never wrong!

From one of the lawyers - welcome aboard. The real question is, are you a law school ethics professor?

At least no one said 'ethics professor' sounds like an oxymoron!
Professor of Medical Ethics, not legal ethics, so you're safe---sort of.
Been doing it 20 years down here in Florida, but like the 206's a bit more
now Does anyone else love the 206's more than their chosen career?
Just teasin'---sort of.

Best

Welcome Barry from another Floridian!

Hope your cards survived Hurricane Ivan in one piece!

You have the LOOK of an ethics professor:



I never trust the ethics of the clean-shaven guys with the fancy haircuts and slick suits. I want a guy who looks like he gives in to no one! A TRUE free thinker!

PS - You also look like most of us collectors.

I smiled from ear to ear when i saw you had taken my picture off the
university website and let me know that i have joined a super bunch of
folks who look like me!
i'm grateful, Hal.
also glad to know another Floridian who loves the 206's.
Ivan did destroy our 3 acres but not much damage to the house, thankfully.
lots of MRE's and bottled water and no electricity for nearly a month,
though.

all the best, Hal

Barry

Barry, we once had a thread where we posted pictures of ourselves. So you shouldn't feel you're being singled out.

i think Hal may be right, Trae; there's some 206ian resemblance that can't
be quantified.
all the best, Trae

That's the T206 TRAE (portrait) proof!!!!

Actually, Trae looked like Barry, but had to shave his facial hair for the T206 photo shoot so that he would be allowed in the set.

That gives me an idea - find an artist who could rendition a personal T206 card. That would be pretty neat to have a card of yourself lookin' all old-timey and whatnot.

Or better yet (and cheaper)...

we can all just look through the existing T206 portraits cards to see which one looks the most like you!

The one in your signature is a good start!

I think this is Trae:



Trae must be his "code name"! Trae said that he lives in Florida ... and so does Dean Palmer.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Too bad Palmer is wayyy older then me.

Nice Geoff...

Hal, funny you mention finding the card that most looks like yourself. I have been working with the entire set photos so much lately that some of them started to look like friends and acquaintances - scary!

many thanks for the welcome
i'm focusing on the t206's. i have about 90 graded ones from PSA, SGC, GAI.
I still look for a T205 or T210 or even T203 here and there.
I have around 20 of the 205's, 20 of the 210's and 3 of the T203's, all graded as before. My 205's and 210's actually hold the best grades with
several excellents and one near mint.
Lately i've been focusing on the HOF's for T206.
Thanks to Trae, I now have them on display(listed) with his website.

all the best

Barry
