Happy Birthday to the Blog

Today marks one year since I started this blog!  It's hard to believe I have kept this thing going for a full 365 days, with no end on the horizon.  Let me start by thanking all of you--the readers--for taking time out of your day to read my sometimes senseless drivel.  I hope you enjoy the posts, I try to make them as interesting as I can.  I read every comment and love the feedback you guys provide.  I also really enjoy reading your awesome blogs too.

So much has happened this year in my card collecting life and the life of the blog.  I have amassed a collection of close to 600 Roy Halladay cards, thanks to many trades you with fine people.  I have also gotten tons of cards of the other players I collect.  Trading is fun and it's great that we all can help each other out. 

I thought I'd pick a few of my favorite posts from the past year and put the links here for those who might have missed them, or are new to the blog.  A one year retrospective, if you will.

Have a look at my first post on the blog.  I talk about my experience at the National Card Show there, as well as ponder what one does on a blog. Or maybe you missed the post where I confessed to actually liking the Washington Nationals, despite them being in the NL East.  You could also check out the day I met Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee, or, maybe my favorite blog post so far: the day I spent the afternoon with Joe Flacco.

So thanks again to you all for following and for reading and commenting over the past year.  I plan on keeping this thing going as long as I feel I have something interesting to write! 

I'll announce a contest tomorrow (probably in the evening), so be sure to check back then.
