Getting P(-To)WNed (Part V)

So, um,


BLAM!

That happened so suddenly and unexpectedly didn't it? No warnings. No signals.

In the past I made other people feel this sense of unexpected shock with my T206es, never did I think I'd have somebody do the same to me.

Well lo and behold, one of my best blogging buddies P-Town Tom of Waiting 'til Next Year got me again.

Okay well to be fair Tom did give me a warning when I first opened the bubble mailer.

Immediately I knew what this implied. For you see I had left the following comment one of the WtNY blog posts.

Obviously I meant the comment in jest. And by "folks" I mean all of the people in the super traders club (which I am not a part of). But PTT made it happen anyway. Kind of fitting really. They sent me my first T205, I sent them their first T206.


So back to the magnificent T205. It's of former Highlander Jack Quinn. Jack Quinn is notable to me for his T206 was the second T206 I had ever picked up. And with the departure of my first T206 it's been with me the longest. I have a feeling PTT probably remembered that post from this blog's early years before it became the prospecting thing it is today.

Either way, this came out of nowhere and I can't thank PTT enough for this. I definitely didn't thank him enough by sending him a bunch of inkless Adam Warrens. Time to rectify my mistake!


And there was my latest P(-To)WNAGE package from P-Town Tom. PTT's packages are always special because they know that my interests are Yankees prospects, Highlanders and a few things in between. Not everyone has either of those things and yet PTT managed to find a little bit of all three and sent it in one convenient package.

Well rest easy PTT, my next Zippy Zapping for you will not be just a PWE with a dozen ex-Yankees making up the bulk of it. I will get even (my own twisted definition of even).

So yeah, go check out Waiting 'til Next Year. I hear the Cubs are no longer terrible.

Any thanks again to PTT for the awesome cards.

And as always thank you the readers for stopping by. Take care.
