I had a average of B+ (GPA of 7 out of 10) so about 80% to 84% in university. In college I finished with 96% and with high honors and with the prize for best coop program student in the field. All this without any parents just raised by my older brother (3 years older than me) both died when I was a kid. They left us their house and we took care of it and worked hard and went to school at the same time I was a janitor from 15 to 21 every nigh of the week....until I completed college. My brother would come to the parent teacher meetings and all that kind of stuff we would go grocery shopping together me been 12 and him almost 16. He is very smart and very mature. He completed university with a ''A'' average in computer science....also has his masters he would have done a doctors degree but life calls for making money (a PHD takes 5 years full time sure you get paid as a teachers assistant but that is not a career). I was a orphan basically (spent 95% of my time in hospitals with and for my parents) and so was my brother oh we had are 2 grandparents but that is it in this world. No one intervened because my brother was so mature for his age he could take care of all the adult issues at a very young age so no one made any complaints to any authorities.

Thanks sir!!! Ottawa (population of 1.25 million) is a very nice place. I also love Montreal (population of 4 million) in the summer only 2 hours away by car....and Toronto (population of 5.5 million) about 5 hours away. Last edited by Zone91; 04-06-2013 at 02:55 PM. |

I enjoy doing the research on my own including purchasing several books, resources, magazines, etc to help with any questions I have. I will also reach out to several people that are in the hobby if I can't find answers to my questions.
For me personally, I enjoy taking the time to read about the history and stories behind the players / cards and finding the answer on my own...it makes me appreciate everything just a little bit more too. Good Luck!

Uber rare cards. I'm not a "back of card" kind of guy, but the n167s have amazing looking backs.
Finding and owning one would be a major accomplishment for most. Having more than one, well... it gets exponentially tougher. Several 1 of 1s in that set. I too wonder if the resident n167 expert will chime in. |

I know of at least one collector who has several...just waiting for him to post here (got to look and hold some of them at the national in anaheim several years back)...n167s are great cards and the fronts really look nicer in person as well.
