100 POSTS AND COUNTING !! FREE GIFT

Do you hear the fanfare ?

Do you see the balloons and streamers ?


I don't either ! I realize 100 posts is not that big of a deal,but I wasn't sure if I would last even this long. My youngest son, Andy, has a blog called Cardboard Mania . It's currently on hold because of his commitment to college activities, ( no,not toga parties ! he's learning sports journalism) but that's how I discovered the blogging community.I probably should have spent a longer period delving into various blogs before jumping in myself, but as I discover more and more blogs everyday and read what others have to say I have been learning a few things. I also did a little outside research on "What is a blog ?". It seems that no one has a good, clear-cut definition of "blog". Some people seem to think a blog should always contain subject matter to inform and teach the readers something, some say it's just a way of communicating and interacting with others. My 1981 Funk & Wagnalls desk set doesn't even list the word "blog" ! ( I guess it's time for a new dictionary) Webster says : (noun) Short for weblog. A frequently updated website, normally with dated entries and usually with the newest entries at the top.Well, that's good enough for me. It can be whatever you want to be and if other people like it and want to read it, that's fine too.I would like to start concentrating on sports cards and my collection a little more. I still plan to include cartoons because we all need a little laugh sometimes.I also want improve to want lists. I would like to do more trades with today's economy.

Now then,the important stuff !

I do have a free gift for anyone for the asking.Just email your mailing address to randj531@yahoo.com. There are a couple stipulations : You must like baseball, music and have a cd player. Oh, and the following should NOT respond to this free offer :
