| @DrWatson We have that but neither game was on. We'd have to pay for ESPN+ and FS1. Even when we had cable, games were streaming unless you paid for a cable sports package. It's all about the money now. | ||

| I'm not a sports fan at all. I guess they have to find some way of paying for those multimillion dollar contracts so men in tights can fight over a pigskin ball. | ||

| Now, what I would pay big money to watch would be a couple of high school teachers beating the snot out of a couple of disrespectful, smart-mouthed teenagers. That would be thoroughly entertaining. | ||

| I didn't know what it was until I heard one of the DJs on the radio talking about how trendy it was. She said she didn't like it regardless of what the "influencers" and social media rats were gnawing on and on about. | ||

| So Dubai has a style of making chocolate though they import cocoa and Germany is the country that actually manufactures the chocolate. So Dubai style made in Germany, how do we make this more pretentious, how about price? |

| I notice on comic book forums that have WTB someone will ask for something specific and sometimes odd. Example: I want a Superboy 116 but it has to be 6.5 and have white only pages. Ok Then another person will have one and the guy goes no thanks. Why post in WTB and make other people go through the trouble to find exactly what you asked for and then say no. Find it yourself and don't waste other people's time. I just don't get it |

| I have seen this quite a few times at shows. Mr. Big is setting up his big wall of treasures in the center isle. Hey Mr. Big is that Human Torch number 2 1940? Yes sir it is. Mr. Big takes it down. Do you mind if I take a look? Sure, but be careful we will do it together. Wow Mr. Big this book is beautiful and complete! Yes sir it is! Since your so interested I will even take off 10% Guy says no thanks and walks away.  Sad I tell ya |

| I was helping Dale Roberts at a show when this guy asked to see three or four wall books. He looked over and looked over them. Then he said, " Will you take $XXX for the lot?" Dale said okay. I asked the guy how he wanted to pay. He said, "Oh, I'm not going to buy them. I just wanted to know what you'd take for them." Dale and I just looked at one another. |

| My own stupidity “grinds my gears” this time. Thankfully I got lucky. Sent 7 books to to other guys for the McFarlane signing. I brought the shipment to my local UPS. Paid cash. I threw out the receipt and tracking slip by mistake. That was 2 months ago. Last week, I checked my account, no record of it being received. I had no tracking. No proof of shipment. I figured it was lost. I called cgc, they said boxes are checked in within a week of receipt. So yes, it’s lost. Then Yesterday I log in, package is received! Months of being angry with myself taught me a lesson. Don’t throw away your shipping receipts. |
