My old buddy Snuffy just passed away at 2:45...my old crusty heart is broken. He was the bestest boy.
I’m so sorry McGill. My wife and I lost our Buu Kitty a little over 2 years ago and we still miss him terribly. He was about the same age as Snuffy — not young, but we wished for at least a few more years.

Ok got a question for you guys/gals that are Card collectors and need some help.

Have a nephew that is wanting to get into Baseball/Football Card Collecting.

As a kid I used to collect cards myself but haven’t bought cards in decades.

Can you guys give me let’s say Top 5 Boxes or brands to buy? Or what to look out for? What to stay away from?

I’m wanting to get him a couple boxes for his upcoming Bday. Maybe some boxes with Autos? Don’t care too much about pricing, but nothing crazy.
 
How do you post a gif or tweet?

I'm lost with the New format........

If it's too good to be true.... Dang I got caught up in a scammer (at least I think they're a scammer). I found a listing on Mercari (used stuff) and the price was def. too good but I figured it was likely either 'hot' or some random just getting rid of stuff. At any rate, I'm talking to them and all is going well. They're like 'you got zelle? can afford it?' and I'm thinking it's a little weird they're messaging me so much but ok. Then they're like "I'm at Fedex now and shipping it" and suddenly showing me pics of their fedex store. And I'm like "hold up, how do you want to make sure I don't rip you off and you don't rip me off?" because at this point they're acting like they're shipping it right this instant and I've yet to pay them.

And I bring up, 'hey you want me to purchase the listing on mercari?' and they're like 'no, last time my stuff got damaged and mercari doesn't cover it so I don't use them... yaddda yadda..."

So I've yet to respond. I doubt I will because I can't see how this isn't a scam. Zelle is great but it doesn't offer fraud protection and the way they want to do this seems sketchy af. Am I overreacting?

Depends how much $...I mean I'd hate to give a scammer even $10 but if it's something like $50 or more then there's no way I'd send Zelle. Maybe another payment app with buyer protection.

These folks can help you out.

 
I’m of a different mindset. I think that our current culture could have helped him find a better path. All of his stops so far were in places with poor cultural infrastructure that were not set up to help the athlete.

Yet another reason why we will be


15-0 🤠

Definitely possible. Hadn't thought of it like that.

Great thank you.

We got him from a shelter in late May 2010...they said he was about 5-6 weeks old...so 13 years and 4 months ago...he has been going downhill for the last few months.

He would only eat Friskies brand, and his favorite was Surfin & Turfin.

I’m allergic to cats, but only eating Surfin and Turfin is my kind of cat.
 
Hate this for you, man. We’re likely to lose our 14 year old pup before the month is out. She had two bad seizures two nights ago. She’s never had them before. Vet outlined the likely issues, and we’ve come to terms with the fact that she’s had a great, long life, but her quality of life sucks right now. Going to be hard to let her go, but we know it’s the right thing to do.
Yep...it sucks.

You just can't heal old age...and just like people some live a few years past the relative 90 year old mark, but his old body just gave out on him.
