OT : Where have they gone ?

[mzm55]

Brian isn’t too far off, actually. I read the board but have been absent from collecting for a while due to my workload. I am now finishing my senior year at GW. Unfortunately I will not have much of a lull from school, as I will likely be accepting an offer from Yale for graduate school.

I will admit, though, that I catch myself spending hours searching terms such as “Contentnea” and “Voskamp” in early American newspapers while I am supposed to be working on my undergraduate thesis. I have learned that the Fan Craze set was issued into 1907, but that is another issue for another time.

Take care,

Zach

Zach - you are going to accept an offer from Yale for graduate school at the expense of posting on this board?

your priorities are all screwed up.


(way to go! awesome. really awesome.)

Zach,
Congrats on admission to Yale for your Ph.D.! That is great news! Looking forward to seeing you at the National.

I think the hobby is just like life. There are a lot of places to buy cards, a lot of places to sell cards, and a lot of places to discuss cards. Sometimes, when the BS gets too thick to breath through, we decide to prioritize things. Some don't make the cut.

Greg T_eberge.. now he had some great stuff, wonder where he went to.

Hi, Barry (and any other old hobby friends)! I'm alive. I read the boards every now and then and still pick up a few cards a year, but I just haven't been able to devote as much time, money, or energy to the hobby as I once did. I kind of hate being this detached from the world of old cardboard but I'm sure I'll be back to full-time collecting one of these days.
