So, I was home in MI a few weeks ago and found my old hockey cards in the garage. I knew I had an Ovechkin rookie, saw that they were going for a few thousand on eBay and sent it into get graded:

Here's hoping he sets the goals record!
What was the turnaround with Beckett. Waits are coming down but I know a guy that waited a year for PSA.

Eh, take it easy! That money is spoken for by the mods. Imagine what would happen if you didn't have our protection?

The Italian sausage has actual Italian sausage in it. Capiche?
 
The wife and baby went shopping this morning. They were in the store when our Rogue got hit, and of course the other driver took off without leaving a note. Damaged the right rear bumper and quarterpanel.

At the same time this happened to her, I was out biking with a friend who was telling me that his girlfriend's car, which was in an accident four months ago, is just now getting fixed due to supply chain issues.

So between that and the continually-problematic sunroof that keeps leaking, and no one can fix correctly, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that Nissan will give me a decent amount if I take it up there to sell it Monday, and then walk down the street to the Toyota dealer and go Rav4 shopping.

As the Top Gear boys would say... Don't buy a Datsun.

Good decision. I'm on my second RAV4. First one, a 2008, is still going strong beyond 150K miles with no signs of slowing down.

Cars are so homogenous now, they all kinda feel the same when you sit in one. But all the mechanics I've had, and a dealership owning relative, all praise the RAV4 for being a low fuss, workhorse SUV. Plus they hold value like crazy if you ever move on.

That's my thing - I want a car I don't have to think about, and I love our Prius for that matter. Also, our Rogue is a hybrid that averages 26 MPG, which upsets me every time I drive it. Hybrids are supposed to get better mileage than that.

As I get into my mid-30s I've become more brand loyal, and Toyota has definitely become my car brand. As much as I travel for work I always grab the Toyota off the rental lot when I have a choice.

Yeah, I drove 2 Camry's before the Ravs. Same situation. Kinda boring but no fuss cars. In my first Camry, I got into a rather serious 60mph highway collision but walked away with minor scrapes due to the airbags and everything else working flawlessly. Emergency crew that rolled up kept frantically looking around for the driver and I had to go, "Hi, it was me." They didn't expect my only injuries to be a small, superficial cut. That inspired loyalty for the next one, that's for sure.

What does the main board have against villages? Every thread is "player x is here to burn down your village" or "team x is here to burn down your village"

Did you just run to another thread to make a lazy, stupid point about "mob mentality" via a Kramer clip? :laugh:

Poor Mitchell Miller, the mob is after him! :help:

Damn it, Peter, just because you're Susie's godfather doesn't mean you're in the mob.
