yes I answer questions and try to help out others. I also still like to look at the stuff others come up with and they stories

Not much of a reach for me:




Cousin Ray...

BTW, according to the poster he KO'd two HOFers (McLarnin, Terris) and beat a third (Petrolle).

That makes perfect sense.

I sold my boat years ago. I hang out on chat boards where people excitedly talk about the boats they are going to buy and the fun they are going to have with their kids fishing. In order to help people out I tell them how stupid it is to own a boat and how relieved I am to have sold mine years ago. People have told me many times how helpful my comments are.

LOL, love this. I talked to many people this past summer who owned boats and were self-proclaimed avid boaters but they came back with the same response. The two best days you have when you own a boat are the day you buy it and the day you sell it!! Might be a little more meaningful up here in Canada as the boating season is only 40-50% of what it might be down in the southern states but it still rings true.

Another one was....... B.O.A.T. ......Bring on another thousand $$$ because up here you have to pay to put it in in the spring, take it out in the summer, store it, have it maintained yearly, etc..........

The only thing of value from my first collection that stayed put. It might get sold someday but I am mighty proud of it. It is the only thing on my office walls.

Paul probably is still kicking himself over this trade. My oldest signed card and perhaps oldest front signed tobacco card.
