I was just asking as I was trying to figure out why in the hell Frank was going to be in Kearney, Nebraska (well, maybe that is where the mockery started).

I did get off at the Kearney, NE exit on I-80 not too long ago looking for either fuel or food. I found neither. I thought this thread would produce stories of cards that spent many more days in the NJ sorting facility than mine. Unfortunately the thread seems to revealing that our members in NE have far too much free time. ![]() My trip to Kearny, NJ was purely hypothetical. I can always ask my cards what they did during their three days in Kearny.

If your cards happened to make a side trip through the neighboring towns of Irvington or Elizabeth, be thankful if they arrive sans bullet holes.

I just bought an autographed index card from Ownie Carroll(played in majors from 1925-34) and he was born in Kearny, NJ so I actually thought it was kind of cool that the card just spent the weekend in Kearny before heading to my house.

You can always pick up a body condom at the border. The other option is the sheep dip as you leave.

Always shutter when I see my cards going through Kearny, but they make it in a somewhat timely manner. But that's relative to me, because ALL my cards have to do the Savannah to Jacksonville jump, which is always a mighty long trip (although nice weather).
![]() Had my T206 Shag spend a week in Philadelphia. But as long as he got to see the Liberty Bell and a Phillies game, it was fine. Never been to Nebraska................... ![]() |

In all seriousness, I am looking for the match program from the following soccer game in Kearney (with an "e", at least this side of the pond), New Jersey:
May 15 1949 New Jersey All Stars (Kearney Select) versus Belfast Celtic. I wouldn't have heard of Kearny / Kearney but for that exhibition game. |

My shipment to SGC arrived in Kearny yesterday for its scheduled delivery today. Just checked tracking to see if it was delivered yet, only to find that the package arrived Phoenix, AZ this morning. How does that happen? I'm hoping it finds it way back to NJ soon.

Good luck Frank. As always, my thoughts are with you. ![]() |
