The Economy. Where we are, why we’re here, and the future. (PART 1)
Where are we, why are we here, and what will happen? This post is my attempt to answers these questions as simply as I can. I have broken this post into three parts for ease of presentation.
This post will link to several other posts that will expand on a point. I will add links as [...]
Selling Old Magic Cards: Time Keeps On Slippin’…, Part Two
On the subject of actually selling my Magic: the Gathering collection, I have a few thoughts that have been tested somewhat and will continue to be tested over the next four-ish months.
The most important three things to do: sort, sort, sort! (hur hur…)
Keep now or forever hold your peace, or “Kill your babies.”

Don't look at me, I'm no fan of tanking games. Every week should be played to their max ability in an effort to try to win. The Seahawks are not the freaking Knicks, afterall.
High draft picks are overrated anyways. You pay a lot of money, tying u
Politicians comes to mind. :D

Hey John,
Nice to see GU coming along. Your 'proposal' makes a lot more sense now that I can see it in action. Very interesting set-up. I'm monitoring my traffic closely post-election. Merging The Big Stick into a larger network may make more sens
Go 'Dawgs, indeed. Richt's successes are more than admirable, and I've missed the hell out of him at the offensive helm these last eight years. Should be a great game, but I give the edge to the 'Dawgs. Even though Tim Tebow once touched a blind
