Did Topps go out of business?

I've sent more envelopes to Topps than Panini. Panini 4, Topps 0. Guess whose cards I'm going to cut back on?

Two very minor cards today...

I received two no-names from the Score Hockey set. One from the first goals set, the other a rookie. Both players are still unemployed. Only chance of these cards going up - they change sports.

Uhm...card companies have gotten cheap...

If this is to satisfy some law about gambling, are they following the rules. I've received two cards from about 60-70 entries between four addresses. I did far fewer total in 2008 and faired better. Prove me wrong Topps, Upper Deck and Panini!

If you believe...a man on the moon.

Two days, two astronaut material cards. Hopefully, we get more Monday.

Panini Heroes & Legends arriving...

Received a clothing card of astronaut Al Worden yesterday from Panini. Any astronaut is better than some loser from American Idol. Here's hoping that I do as well as I did four years ago with Donruss.

Bad economy or lockout drop?

Just recently, I was bidding on items on eBay I didn't think I had a chance of winning for such a low maximum. Two days later, MyeBay showed that I won something. I was shocked at the win. "2003/04 SP AUTHENTIC SERGIE FEDOROV/STANISLAV CHISTOV DUAL AUTO #/99 BGS 9" $6.84 total including shipping. One of the greats. Obviously, the misspelled name threw some biggers off, but seriously? Made me feel bad getting it so cheap.

This waiting is tough!

I understand that I haven't gotten to the first drawing date for the index cards I've sent out, but I still check the mailbox each day in hopes a card will be there... If anyone reads this...are there any updated sites any more? Even NPN Cards - the best site in my opinion - is falling behind.
