Contest Winning At Dinged Corners

Winning contests seems to be the only fun I have lately. Dinged Corners had a contest, in which you had to think like Lucy, or at least come up with something funny about a 1989 Topps Tommy Lasorda card.

I couldn't match wits with Lucy. I came up with comments about running to the bathroom and ordering from the lunch truck. I guess the comments made Lucy or Patricia laugh, because I just received 10 hand selected cards from Lucy, in the today's mail.

Not only did I receive Lucy's Ten, I got many bonus cards and a bonus unopened pack of cards. Patricia and Lucy are always so generous when it comes to cards. On top of that, I got another great drawing from Lucy! That's always the best thing about the packages from Patricia and Lucy, the personal touches.

WOW! I got a lot more knocked off my want list, surprisingly. I sent a package out to Patricia and Lucy over a month ago, which is somewhere in limbo. It hasn't shown up at their place and it hasn't shown up back at mine either. Hopefully, someday the cards will show up. I am going to try sending another package out. I'm hoping for this weekend. I've been setting aside cards featuring smiles, technology, aerial acrobatics, Mets, Asian players and more.

Thank you both for the wonderful selection of cards! I will be opening up the pack of Baseball Enquirer cards on A Pack A Day, within the next few days. As always, Lucy's drawings rock!

Yes, Lucy, I loved the card with the sunglasses and the action shots! All the cards were great!
