Kicking off with the set needs grouping. The David Cone checks off a card from the Glow Stars subset I'm working on. (I ♥ glow-in-the-dark cards!) And in a perfect world, I'd complete the 2011 Topps liquorfractor parallel set (I ♥ sparkly cards and booze!), and a couple Giants of the Deep minis (I ♥ whales!) Do you think it'd count as an autograph if I were to get a narwhal to poke a hole in the card with its horn? If I were a marine biologist, I would totally pursue that goal.
Boo Dodgers, but yay the small handful of Dodger guys I PC. Looks like N.O. hooked me up with some of his dupes. BTW, Matt Kemp is a Padre now. BURN! (I'm calling it now: WS MVP. You just wait!)
A couple of my favorite current dudes to collect! Gigi and Goldy! Love that '11 RC, especially.
And the rest! That Ozzie hologram is amazing.. featuring 3D Wizard doing a backflip.. too bad it's tough to take a picture of, much less make an animated gif (hell, even looking at it in person is a challenge, but when you catch it at just the right angel(s): cardboard perfection). A couple Vlads. A couple A-Gone's (I wonder if I've hit the 100-card mark with him yet?), and a Bench. Much appreciated.
Great stuff! Thanks for the sweet cards, Night Owl. Keep on rocking!
Sweet narwhale, I too live those 11 cognacs
ReplyDeleteI ♥ this post, obviously. And you've got me off on another trip through the ELO songbook.
ReplyDeleteGotta love that Ozzie hologram!
ReplyDeleteI really like the whale cards. I am seriously considering opening up some A&G at some point, just to see if I can get the oddball stuff they include.
ReplyDeleteOf course now I have the Sprint Narwhal commercial song in my head.
