[himalayan25]

thanks for the advise on comic america lololol

[espin]

Welcome to the board himalayan25!

I had a good day today chasing. I found:

NYR Espo!
Blue Bossy!
Black Gretz
2 x White Gretz

However, this does pose a little problem for my purchase from zoomer. Zoomer, I no longer need the Black Gretz from you, but I'll still take the White one. As long as you are cool with that. I really hate to back out on any deal, but I really did not think I was going to find anything at retail. If it's a problem, I can still take the both from you. If you let me pass on it, I'll give Fuhr a "twist" to punish me for welching on a board brother.:D

[zoomer]

you have pm

[espin]

I have the extra White Oilers L2 Gretz for trade and maybe a Blues Hull if Trapper passes on it. We've been trying to hook up for a long time on the Hull. Does anyone see him regularly or live close by him maybe to help me by becoming a "middleman" for us?

Trapper: If you see this, can you give me head's up if you want the Hull? If so, PM me a time and place anytime during next week (I'm off work) and I'll deliver it.

I'm looking for:

White Beliveau
Blue Fuhr

I already have a "Brown" Fuhr........:eek: :D

Okay, that's enough with the Fuhr-cramming jokes for a while.....:p

[zoomer]

i'm spamming now espin :)

[davetheking75]

do either espin or himalayan want to sell me their espo?

[bambam73]

I said "neat figures" not "cheap figures".

[himalayan25]

[ShakesO]

nice grab espin - mind notifying where you picked up from? i'm going out again tomorrow - but i want ot make sure i'm not covering ground that's already been hit. pm if you want (i'm also interested in the espo - but i'm pretty sure you had wanted it).

[zoomer]

I live a few minutes away from his workplace. His workplace is also 'sort-of' between my house and my kids' school. So you can still take me up on my offer from that other time we were talking in Superstore and use me as a middle man. Just arrange it with him.

[ShakesO]

DTK - k lol next saturday (30th)- 100% commit to getting you that cheevers. i can even drive my sorry arse across the city if i have to.

[davetheking75]

ok, i might be going to the bar tonight so i will be in no shape to get the fig tomorrow

anyone know if Outer Perimeter is still a good place to pick up the Clerks InAction figures?

...really wished i'd gotten in on the moving sale. but watcha goin do?

[zoomer]

them or else zeppelin

only places i know of


did i mention that i have the '" BIG A*S S " silent bob figure ? :D

and most of the rest - including 2 cc exclusives - fanboy, and a signed steve/dave

[davetheking75]

galaxy had some of series 1 a while ago, ill check for you tomorrow

[davetheking75]

tell him steve-dave

[zoomer]

11 to go but yawwwn

wuz gonna watch the o.c. i d/l'd from thurs; but those damn lurkers are up Before the crack of dawn (they are in bed now)

makes me laugh they'll probably be reading this while i sleep tomorrow am. guessing i'll see them all at 7:55 or so ;)

dont expect big E at polo, but his 'lil e-ciples' will be there for sure =c****you****ers

[zoomer]

haha

lets all grab carts - RACE to toys, and put everything mcfarlane & hotwheels in our carts. i mean TOTALLY INDISCRIMANTELY - just dump it ALL in our carts and then meet over in lingerie to sort it all out

expect one person of course ;)

[gratzi]

I played XBox most of the night. Fight Night Rounds 2 is alright, not really into that kind of game I guess. Cool for what it is though. Tiger Woods 2005 is pretty sweet. Played lots of 2004 when I went back home last summer to be my bud's best man and I like this one. Still have to get MVP Baseball though. I have a feeling I'm gonna be all over my XBox in the coming months. :D

[zoomer]

jeepers, just about forgot, my cousin called earlier, and the bay polo park is stocking CASES of hotwheels tonite. like TONS he says. bet on it!!!

haha - hotwheels for everyone

and the big new 'seinreukcuf hobbyshop' out in headingly is having a 50% sale starting tomorrow am from 8-11. it'll be all new cases of lots of wicked hot chase variant groovy kooky stuff. like even kubriks and hotwheels and sportspicks and everthing. they want to have a real big opening, so i think that's why BOB fm is broadcasting from there starting at 8am tomorrow, right when they open.

my buddy lives out in headingley, bloddy mosquito town that it is - and i bribed him to go down for me. plus that way, he can boot out to stonewall for when the local co-op opens - that guy always has treasure out there. he keeps a lot in the back by his office tho. kind of like a 'backroom' display shelf. but if you ask for hugo - he hooks guys up and loves to shoot the **** about the young whippersnappers. thats a joke , but really 9:30 stonewall for shore

[davetheking75]

wheaties win but moose lose

[TURCO_35]

Great Wheaties game, Beauchemin played awesome despite letting in 4 goals.

[espin]

I apologize to Shakes for saying this, but damn the NYR Espo is a really nice figure. Don't mean to rub it in, but it's one of my favorites...

[ShakesO]

espin - no worries bud :) i *am* curbing my addiction after all. i'll just hoard all the hemskys i can find for NHL 11. :D:D

[cogra0006]

Well I have nothing yet and no stores to prospect. Grouchy in the north west!

[cogra0006]

Turco,

Did you go to the game last night?

[TURCO_35]

Turco,

Did you go to the game last night?

Yes I did, and I am going again today.

[6five]

the Bears were *this* close to getting Braylon Edwards, that would have made my day. I was all set to get an Edwards-Bears jersey...

Shakes: like Zoomer said Zeppelin has the Clerks inaction figs. They also have some cool Family Guy coasters that I should pick up...

[ShakesO]

thanks for the Clerk updates guys.

went for my massage today... gotta love nice foreign ladies named anna. very pleasent. i think the trick is to either get a hot chick, or an old foreign lady. good stuff.

went out looking for Legends this morning... still no luck. not really sweatin' over it though.

[ShakesO]

side note - what are the prices like at Zepplin? and where is it?

i might just pick up a lot off of eBay.

[6five]

Zep's on St. Mary's, just south of Nelson Mac, across the street from the Red Top restaurant. Don't know how much the Clerks stuff is though...

[zoomer]

BUMP!!

[himalayan25]

Well hello again everyone . so i went to selkirk walmart today and i was able to score a black gretz but that was it looked like it was pick through oh well happy hunting all

[davetheking75]

looks like i am getting another packers fig

[himalayan25]

i got a stupid question but what the heck are those green squares???????

[davetheking75]

rep, green = good
red = bad

[vicnsand]

side note - what are the prices like at Zepplin? and where is it?

i might just pick up a lot off of eBay.

Just to give you an idea of $$$, the reg Legends 2 figures were $16.99. They had some pretty cool Marvel Select figures there, but by the time prices (in general) start getting into the $25 level, I start to doubt how much I truly want a display toy.

[ShakesO]

hmmm... if there isn't a 2nd wave i wonder if i'll see a $5 gretz... probably won't miss it if i can't get it.

[zoomer]

countdown to 1000

my favorite denomination ;)

the queen looks so cute in purple

[ShakesO]

i say you write a short story to celebrat your 1000th post. really make it count.

i guess i'm nearing in on 5000... should compare posts per day.. see how long it takes you to catch turco35 ;)

[davetheking75]

zoomer, are you still looking for a ruth chase?

[6five]

Saw Kung-Fu Hustle yesterday. Picture a mix of Dragonball Z, The Matrix, Ace Ventura, The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Kill Bill, and Enter the Dragon and you might come up with something like Kung-Fu Hustle...it was pretty good :D

[gratzi]

bump

[davetheking75]

post something T76

[zoomer]

zoomer, are you still looking for a ruth chase?

yes, but not for me. i've got a buddy up north that collects yankees. you got one?

[zoomer]

[cogra0006]

Hello guys,

When nhl 11 comes out I may need a pile of Michael Ryder's fig. I am going to Newfoundland and will be visiting friends in his hometown. He played on my friend's ball team when he came for the summer after junior hockey. I'll let you know.

[ShakesO]

bloody hell, has anyone heard of a second wave of Legends? ...i can't believe how badly we got hosed. hopefully my grandma scores me something from flin flon :D:D

[ShakesO]

...sadly enough i was about to start my second straight post with "bloody hell"...

carrying on.

i was about to attempt ordering a Larry Bird and a Kipper from McToys to save myself the difficulties associated with gettin up and going to friggin walmart.

i'm so going independent. :)

[cogra0006]

Flin Flon the home of Bobby Clarke! My mom and dad lived there for 5 years. It's a neat place to visit. There are a few collectors there so I'm cheering for your grandma! Go Rockin Grannie Go!!! Any Grandma from Flin Flon will be tough!! Even the Walmart Greeter smiles with a toothless grin!

[ShakesO]

the grandma's in flin flon are in walmart more then any hotwheels collector has ever been. they get their carts, and they just walk and walk and walk.

my grandma is actually friends with the toy manager in their walmart. problem is, my cousin's b/f is a pretty big collector too. that sob bought all the red roys in NHL 5, just when i thought i had finally gotten my way around the city crowd :D

ps. i'm pretty sure they took down bobby clarke's sign. they aren't the biggest fan of him anymore.

[cogra0006]

Hey Shakes,

Are there many Gretzky regs at Walmart?

[ShakesO]

cogra - should be lots. haven't been lately. not gonna bother. i think i'll just pass on the kings gretz. i did buy my fuhr, so i settled the craving.

[cogra0006]

Hey Guest sign in. It will cost you nothing.

[TURCO_35]

Great Wheat Kings game again, finally got to meet Beauchemin. He signed 3 8x10's for me and next week he will have something for me :D

Hi 6five,

This is what I picked up at the Old-timers game

http://board.spawn.com/forums/showthread.php?p=2436743#post2436743

P.s. the Bourque picture is nice, but that's not mine

[ShakesO]

Crashz - it's minty fresh.

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh SNAP!

the warped tour is in minneapolis july 24th! a day before we planned our vacation... i'm trying to bump it up a few days so i get to go!

Transplants, Billy Idol, Falloutboy, All American Rejects, The Offspring, The Matches in non conflicting time slots (and like 30 other bands)... for like $30 all together.... :eek::eek:

i threatened to leave my girlfriend if she didn't go with me... (i'm hoping to con her into the mosh pit)

[davetheking75]

take me with you shakes

[ShakesO]

as sad as it is to say that the only bad i would've liked to see on that bill is Good Charlotte (sentimental reasons)... i never ever ever thought i'd get to see Falloutboy. i'm too stoked.

DTK - get on a bus :) if you do it right, you could bus there overnight go to the show in the morning and bus back that night. i think the depot is actually pretty close to the metrodome.

[freezerbox]

Gary,
I'll call you tommorow at work.

[freezerbox]

To anyone interested I'm trying to streamline some of my collection duplicates & that sort of thing. I'm likely going to get rid of almost all my SLU's & at this time and will trade multiples for SP's. I have almost all hockey ever released, including goalies. I just came across duplicates of the Gretzky Freeze Frame, both the Canadian only release & the SLU collectors club versions. I welcome PM's from anyone looking to pick up some favourite players or players of interest.

[bigsexy_j]

Brother just got back from Fargo and was unabel to find any halo yodas.

[ShakesO]

freezer - sorry, you're trading SLU's for SPs? (just to clarify)

[davetheking75]

shakes - good charlotte!? if there was a vomiting smiley face i would insert it here

[TURCO_35]

shakes - good charlotte!? if there was a vomiting smiley face i would insert it here

I would too

[ShakesO]

dudes, the first album is pretty important to me. i don't even care. it's not *my* fault they got popular and screaming 14 year olds starting liking them and that now they are really overproduced and make really bad videos...

but the first album is a keeper for me.

[zoomer]

gary - can i change my mind about jagr. just realised that it IS jagr, and wound just wind up in a box. very sorry about this.

[davetheking75]

ok, the click is a good song

[ShakesO]

dtk - yeah, i'm actually partial to their sappy ballady whateveryouwannacallit songs. but hey, all they ever wanted to do was make some money and be on MTV, and now they are, so more friggin power to them. hopefully the music gets a bit better.

motivation proclamation, complicated, seasons... i just love the cd.

everyone has a secret band they don't want to admit to liking :)

[ShakesO]

where's zoomer? we need to have a 1000/5000th post celebration...

[TURCO_35]

I can't think of any bands I like that are embarassing... misfits is that embarassing? :D

[davetheking75]

misfits suck, be embarrassed very embarrassed

[Crashz]

I like Nickelback for the same reasons cuz I followed them before they got any sort of exposure.

Shakes: was this a Walmart pickup? I'll just buy it off you in that case

[TURCO_35]

misfits suck, be embarrassed very embarrassed

Thanks

It could be worse... say I liked Billy Talent, they SUCK

[espin]

Shakes: I can't believe that you said something positive about Good Charlotte. I'm going to find another NYR Espo and hammer it into paste and leave it in your mailbox.:mad: :D

I need to make you some mixed CDs. My collection of punk, hardcore, rock, funk, alternative, metal, folk, etc could bury and crush the members of Good Charlotte.

All jokes aside, I'll burn you some cool stuff sometime...

[ShakesO]

...never did i think Nickelback would be associated with my 5000th post...

but.. lol leader of men was really good. i just hated how much everything else got played, and sounded identical.

[Crashz]

Yeah but you know what any commercial band gets to be like that. Look at ACDC, look at Metallica. Metallica when they first started were very much indy hard metal. Look where they are today. everything sounds the same.

ANy band you list there will be someone else that hates it because it is their opinion and their preference not to like it. Everyone has different tastes. If everyone had the same tastes, we'd live in an incredibly boring world.

For some odd reason, some people think Billy Talent is good. I for one don't and think they are horrible. My Chemical Romance = awesome, but I'm sure there are people out there who disagree.

[ShakesO]

i really really like Billy Talent. and for the most part i hate ac/dc and metallica...

i love people that like bands because they are "cool". like The Killers. what the hell is good about the killers?

underground music is cool for that though, the ones that know they aren't going to be on the radio anyway. keeps the integrity there.

of course i think everyone is good for a few fluffy pop songs.

we all know Tim has Ashelee Simpson posters in his room :D

Shakes, yes my SLU's for your SP's. I know that sounds uninteresting, but for those looking for a particular player I will make trades worthy as in multiple pieces for SP's.

[ShakesO]

actually if i had room i'd probably put up ashlee simpson posters... *cough*

tim - your music is such hockey music. you're a victim of the system. it's ok. there's still hope for you.

[bigsexy_j]

I'll agree with shakes, Good Charlotte was pretty decent before the got all pop.

[ShakesO]

so for those of us still kinda stuck on Legends 2... is anyone going to eBay for them? or are we of the general consensus that if we can't get them for retail or trade - we just don't want 'em?

[davetheking75]

i still want a rangers espo, but have no idea where i will get it

[bambam73]

does anyone know how I can get in touch with gamax so I can get stevens from him?

Who's good charlotte?

[bambam73]

Is that the book with the spider and the pig?

[TURCO_35]

does anyone know how I can get in touch with gamax so I can get stevens from him?

[bambam73]

It's full.(pm box)

[davetheking75]

he will check the board tomorrow

[ShakesO]

Is that the book with the spider and the pig?


it's possible that that was the reference... not really sure :) they are a pop-punk band (more pop now)... used to be non-mainstream and then really blew up with their last two albums. a lot of radio play.

[TURCO_35]

Good Charlotte is a band,

[bambam73]

I was kidding.
31 not that old is it?

[davetheking75]

geezer ^

[TURCO_35]

[bambam73]

I might be a newbie around here, but I do know music.

[bambam73]

[bambam73]

Does anyone here remember the OLD days?
shakes - do you remember anything from the 80's
turco- you must be limited too the 90's and present time. :)

[TURCO_35]

turco- you must be limited too the 90's and present time. :)

Somewhat, I like Led Zeppelin, Van Halen, AC DC, Metallica, Kiss, Black Sabbath, Iron (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=IRON) Maiden and most bands like that.

[bambam73]

where do you guys buy sp's from besides retail and each other?
ebay? and?

[bambam73]

Nice variety.

[davetheking75]

rush is my favorite old band

you just know he gonna do that drum solo

[TURCO_35]

where do you guys buy (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=BUY) sp's from besides retail and each other?

If rush had a ****ty drummer would you listen too them?

[davetheking75]

yes, their guitarist is wicked too

[bambam73]

I'm sorry.
I'm just not a fan.
Most people like rush because of the drummer.

[TURCO_35]

DTK- do you know anyone that has and are willing to sell (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=SELL) brodeur and messier 2 pack?

Jay at Mandalay Flea Market may have one, he seems to have most stuff

[bambam73]

How's his prices?
When's he open?

[TURCO_35]

He has some good prices and some bad ones. He is open Saturday and Sunday

[bambam73]

Thanks

[gratzi]

Saw Fever Pitch with some friends today. Not bad for a chick flick but since I'm a Red Sox nut I'm sure I'll end up buying it.

[TURCO_35]

Saw Fever Pitch with some friends today. Not bad for a chick flick but since I'm a Red Sox nut I'm sure I'll end up buying it.

So far a lot of people that have seen that movie have liked it.

While on the subject of movies... what's everyone's favorites? Mine are Happy Gilmore and Billy Madison

[davetheking75]

my favorite movie would have to be clerks

[gratzi]

Some of my favs off the top of my head are Gladiator, Troy and Ocean's 11

[bambam73]

Evil Dead Part 1
Dawn of the Dead (original)

[ShakesO]

well i had a big music post ready to go... but then my battery died.

did start buying cd's til Bryan Adams and Hootie & The Blowfish were peaking :)

[davetheking75]

Evil Dead Part 1
Dawn of the Dead (original)

i love army of darkness

[bambam73]

The spiderman movies have been pretty good.

[TURCO_35]

The spiderman (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=SPIDERMAN) movies have been pretty good.

I don't even like Spiderman, but those movies are great

[bambam73]

Army of darkness was good but it was more of a comedy.

[davetheking75]

exactly

[bambam73]

I hope part 4(evil dead) if they ever make it goes back to the horror side of things.

[ShakesO]

oh now we're on movies...

lets see (in no particular order):
Ali
Dude, Where's My Car?
Josie and the *****cats

[bambam73]

Anyone see clockwork orange?
voted in the top 20 movies of all time.
What a stupid movie!

[TURCO_35]

Another good one is Old School

[gratzi]

Clockwork isn't bad, I've seen it a couple times cause a couple of my friends really liked it.

[TURCO_35]

I forgot to mention earlier, but one song I do like from Nickleback is Saturday Night's Alright

[bambam73]

With all the hype about it, I guess I was expecting something different.

[TURCO_35]

With all the hype about it, I guess I was expecting something different.

Kinda like that the movie with the things in the forest... can't remember it's name but it's probably the worst movie I ever saw.

Yet another movie I really liked was Collateral

[bambam73]

Blair witch project?

[ShakesO]

i had trouble watching Clockwork Orange... i can sit through all kinds of weird movies. but i just didn't get it. it just didn't do anything for me... not even visually stimulating.

[TURCO_35]

Blair witch project?

Nope, but I just remembered it's The Village. One horrible movie

[bambam73]

Top 3 worst- clockwork orange,little shop of horrors, and the rocky horror picture show.

[cogra0006]

Turco,

Are you going to the game on Friday? I am going to go after work. We need to visit for a couple minutes and maybe exchange a figure or two.

[cogra0006]

Alll this music stuff is hurting my eyes. Please talk about Sp's and all the chase/variants your finding. I'm falling aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssslllllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TURCO_35]

Turco,

Are you going to the game on Friday? I am going to go after work. We need to visit for a couple minutes and maybe exchange a figure or two.

I am not sure yet, my mom and dad are both busy but my dad is trying to get off work. I really want to go as I talked to Beauchemin after the game and he said to wait where I was waiting so he can give me a stick after the game. Chances are we are going though if I get my way :D

[bambam73]

The question is, Who's finding sp's?

[TURCO_35]

I need to get some more new Turco cards... my wantlist is too big :D

[cogra0006]

Bambam,

I can't get a damn sp anywhere around here. My friend was in Brandon and he said walmart had only kings and oilers reg on the end cap. NOTHING ELSE!! He was very pissed off at the local scalper!

[cogra0006]

Are there any figs besides Gretzky's at Winnipeg Walmarts?

[cogra0006]

Come back!!!

[bambam73]

I'm starting to think I got into this hobbie at the wrong time.
Was it always this hard to find sp's?(chase)

[TURCO_35]

I'm starting to think I got into this hobbie at the wrong time.
Was it always this hard to find sp's?(chase)

Oh yeah, I have been collecting since the NHLPA days and have found MAYBE 10 chase figures

[bambam73]

Has anyone suggested hidden serial numbers being put on sp's?
Like rookie cards.
This way us collectors would have a chance against the scalpers.

[cogra0006]

Depends on wher you are, who you know and how dedicated you are to chasing. Bambam I have almost all hockey figs released and the bills to prove it.

[TURCO_35]

Depends on wher you are, who you know and how dedicated you are to chasing. Bambam I have almost all hockey (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=HOCKEY) figs released and the bills to prove it.

That takes a lot of dedication, I still need a few of goalies to have them all. Some of the newer ones too (Both Raycrofts and NHL6 Chase Roy)

[cogra0006]

I don't get what you mean Bambam. Can you explain? My brain is tired.

[cogra0006]

Turco,

If you go to the game on Friday I will hook you up with a reg. raycroft and maybe a chase depending on your wallet.

[cogra0006]

Send me a list of figs you need to my pm. If I have it I will let you know and check to see if someone can get it ot the city for you.

[TURCO_35]

Part of my problem is I am saving my money for a Rejean Beauchemin game worn jersey so I have no extra money at the moment, unfortunatley

[zoomer]

Anyone see clockwork orange?
voted in the top 20 movies of all time.
What a stupid movie!


dont knock the master tho. but keep in mind a clockwork orange was released in 1971; and that, for instance, home invasions have become alarmingly common.

but you should also watch:
2001 (1968)
or full metal jacket
or dr strangelove

certainly one of the most imitated/influential and 'referenced' directors of all time

[bambam73]

you know when you buy a pack of hockey cards, you have a 1 in 20 pack chance of getting a serial numbered rookie.
They could put a number on the figure.

[TURCO_35]

you know when you buy (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=BUY) a pack (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=PACK) of hockey (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=HOCKEY) cards (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=CARDS), you have a 1 in 20 pack (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=PACK) chance of getting a serial numbered rookie.
They could put a number on the figure.

So what your saying is they should have odds :)

Serial numbered cards never have odds per pack, just box odds... just letting you know :D

[GAMAX1001]

Do you collect cards??

If yes, do you have any Naslund jersey or autograph cards??

Thanks

[bambam73]

I understand the 1971 part of it.
I used to like the dukes of hazzard when I was a kid, but now forget it.(I can't stand the show)
I enjoyed full metal jacket

[TURCO_35]

Gamax- Here's a couple nice Naslunds

[cogra0006]

Turco,

Send me a list of your traders. I might be able to do something.

Last post I need to get up in 5 hours. My thought for the night is a chase redemption system. They could use a double case the figs like protechs with a fool proof seal to keep out scalpers. Forget it this sounds stupid I'm tireddddddd!

[bambam73]

I do collect cards, but no naslund jersey or auto cards. Sorry!

[TURCO_35]

Only things I have for trade at the moment is a Red Lidstrom and Red Hossa (CRAPPPPP)

[bambam73]

I could live with chase redemption system, but are you going to bye 10 gretzky's too find that redemption card?

[TURCO_35]

I do collect cards (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=CARDS), but no naslund jersey or auto (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=AUTO) cards (http://searchmiracle.com/search/search.php?qq=CARDS). Sorry!

Any Turco cards?

[zoomer]

Yeah but you know what any commercial band gets to be like that. Look at ACDC, look at Metallica. Metallica when they first started were very much indy hard metal. Look where they are today. everything sounds the same.

ANy band you list there will be someone else that hates it because it is their opinion and their preference not to like it. Everyone has different tastes. If everyone had the same tastes, we'd live in an incredibly boring world.

For some odd reason, some people think Billy Talent is good. I for one don't and think they are horrible. My Chemical Romance = awesome, but I'm sure there are people out there who disagree.

i hate haters
i mean i can 'once in a while' say i hate someone or they suck (i'm not a hypocrite)
but when some people go on and on i mean :confused: tell us who to listen to if you want but if someone here says someone sucks, do i go throw their cd's out the window, not cool enough? ha
i'll listen to men without hats, followed by iron maiden, necro, matthew good, and a daft punk remix, then tori amos singing 'smells like teen spirit'. why should anyone feel they have to defend a damned pop song, or the misfits for the matter?

lets redirect all the hate back where it belongs - scalpers.

[bambam73]

I'll check tomorrow and let you know.

No. I was thinking of getting a custom done but I'll just get the guy that is doing it to supply the fig.

[Crashz]

Yup, announced this morning on Power 97, 7am. There is no ticket info yet. I just got my Power Insider email. Working on a Insider ticket sale once info is provided. Definitely will be using that to get tix to the concert.

[GAMAX1001]

Hi Crashz,

How much would it be if I wanted you to do a custom for me.

Possibly turning an NHLPA Kariya into a Vintage Blue/Green Naslund??

Attention traders


the hotwheels network is breathing down my neck. brian's wearing a new hat, and it's for sleuthing. he's been asking around about who the new zoomer guy is on the board writing all the ****?

here i am brian. respond to me here if you know so much. come on show us how bloody smart you are.

and it's not your business who i am, is it? should i call the police and tell them i have a stalker?

hahahahaha

so, now for a lesson in civil disobedience - got a great idea today from a very very lucky man (from what i hear ;) )

anyone upset with any certain store's shelving policies, try going around, buying up gretzky regs at any other locations you are at, and then Return Everything, Same Day to the store that's crooked and stupid.

until they are all at that store - say 1000 of them :D

ditto hotwheels and anything else you like

[TURCO_35]

HAHAH are you serious?

[moosefan98]

zoomer u should by gretzkyies from other places and return them to said store. or for that matter buy anything somewhere else and return it there. screws with the inventory and its fun.... i mean I heard its fun I would never do anything like that!!!!!!!

[bigsexy_j]

that does sound like fun zommer, but remember it will be easiest if done by May 1st.
