Roadtripping: Filling my Car With Baseball Cards
About two years ago, very early in the One Million Cubs Project, I stumbled on someone who tweeted a picture of about 50 monster boxes. Someone asked about them, and was told they could have them if they picked it all up. The original person inquiring was a thousand miles or so away.

Another Cubs NAFTA Mailday
For over a year now I have had an ongoing trade with Glenn in Connecticut, also known as The Hobby Spyder on Twitter. He conducts ongoing trades in which he titles NAFTA. Yes, that stands for what you think it would – North American Free Trade Agreement. In blogs of past, I would post aboutContinue reading “Another Cubs NAFTA Mailday”
