To blog or not to blog...

Like most of you, I'm not a professional writer. Heck, I'm not even an amateur writer. If you catch me on a good day I can form complete sentences. As a matter of fact, if it weren't for spell check, I would be too embarrassed to let anyone read anything I wrote.

Lately my blog has pretty much turned into a place holder on the internet for me to post my want-lists. Not that that's a bad thing, because I've garnered some pretty cool trades from other bloggers. (Some of those transactions would be more accurately described as "gifts" rather than trades.) Anyway, the point is, I feel that I'm not really adding any value to the sports card collecting community. I don't do reviews of new releases. I don't do box breaks. I haven't even been writing about my beloved Cardinals lately.

I wish I could say I'm turning over a new leaf. But I know myself, and I know that's not going top happen. After reading the title of this post you might be wondering if I'm pulling a Manny Ramirez and suddenly retiring from blogging. Well, never you worry. I have no "issues" with any drug tests, and I am not retiring from blogging. Much in the way that this blog has become a place holder for my want-lists, this post is just a place holder to keep my blog from completely falling off the face of the planet.

So without further ado, I offer you the latest self-serving additions to my trade-bait. Maybe one day I'll update my want-list too...just don't hold your breath.

  1. Just don't get too far "off base". It's good to pop up on the blogroll from time to time. We'll be around whenever you do post something.
