    So just to follow up on when my wife dared me to apply to Naked and Afraid.... It was a shit show. And by that I mean a producer from LA called me for a phone interview and an hour on the phone later he ended up talking to my wife who said, and this is an exact quote, she said "you won't need to blur much because it's kinda small."

    So everything was set for me to go, until their production department had issues with me being on anti-brain seizure medication (which I can take without water). Something about tv drama and yada yada yada fuck you guys I prefer hedging my bets and banking on not dying.

    Fun while it lasted?

    Y'all can point and laugh at me.

    A little side project I've been working on is building a complete set of 1961 Topps baseball cards. I'm damn close to finishing it off. One of the cards I needed was Roberto Clemente, but I never could seem to find a decent one at I price I was happy with. I finally found one and won the auction on e-bay. I got it a few days ago and left the seller positive feedback. It wasn't perfect, but it was a solid card.

    Tonight I went to add it to my 1961's and as soon as I touched the actual card while removing it from it's holder I knew...reprint. It's on card stock, but having handled hundreds of thousands of vintage cards I knew it wasn't right. I am beyond pissed off.

    This is the reason I usually buy graded cards, at least then you know they're the real deal. Putting together a non graded set seemed like kind of a fun, less expensive diversion. Guess not.

    I knew better and I still got fucked.

    Rocket man to launch on Feb 3.

    Gonna try to prove the earth is flat, meanwhile the only thing that’s gonna be flat is his body upon the earth when this thing fails horribly.

    Anyone know if there’s gonna be a live feed for it?

    I hope so. I am clutching at pearls here, fucking white knuckling at the chance to finally see this legendary Ice Wall that surrounds us on this floating turntable we call home. Not to mention the giant hand that flicks the light of the moon on at night.

    Can’t we just herd all of these people into Siberia or something? I’m not comfortable knowing I could be near them in public. Dangerously stupid folk, they are.

    What sort of recourse do you have? Our store does eBay sales and from what I know of that, eBay will side with the buyer more often than not. If it isn’t what he said it was, can’t you return it and get a refund?

    The problem is that he left the seller positive feedback. Before he checked the item. So he is screwed.

    No, that's not true. You can still open a case if it's not what the seller claimed. eBay's buyer protection still covers that.

    Both of them are. The one in the Maritimes said opposite. However, I believe the majority. It’s fucking horrid outside.

    It's going to be 70+ all week and I think I had frost on my windshield only once this year. Warmest winter I can recall in my 20+ years in Northern California.

    The seller and I exchanged a few messages and he's issuing a full refund. I don't think he listed it maliciously, that was the only card he had listed and I think he legitimately didn't know, so it's all good.

    Crazy asked me if I wanted to go to a yoga class with him. A nude yoga class.

    Um...that would be a no.

    It's been 70+ here for a week and the 18 day forecast is all 70+. The trees finally lost their leaves about 2-3 weeks ago and they're already all budded out. I dread this summer.

    Well, as long as it's not a "hard no".

    I’m going to take a wild stab at the dark and going to guess that a class like that would never, ever attract perverts. Just like anything else with “Nude” on the sign.

    @Revengeofthenerds I've been meaning to ask you... how are your ducks doing? They survive so far?
