Last In Line
One of my favorite activities to kick off summer school is to have my students list their pet peeves. It's an entertaining way to get to know each other and allows me to explain my frustration of repeating instructions to distracted students without coming off as a mean teacher.
In the process, I list things like drivers who enter the freeway below the speed of traffic or dog owners who refuse to pick up their puppy's poop while walking around the neighborhood. I also explain that I'm not a huge fan of standing in lines... especially when it's long and I'm the last in line.
But today's post covers a situation where last isn't too bad. In fact it's great.
2014 Triple Threads Unity Relics #UJR-BL (#'d 36/36)
2012 Certified Red Materials #225 (#'d 199/199)
Well... my buddyWoody generously donated three "Last In Line" serial numbered cards, which quadruples my previous total.
2011 Contenders Draft Class Gold #14 (#'d 100/100)
If you're not familiar with Woody, he's pretty much the jaybarkerfan of the Cardboard Connection Forums. In other words, he's one of the most generous collectors out there.
We have exchanged plenty of packages in the past where he'll send me his extra Bay Area stuff and I'll send him my extra New England area stuff.
In addition to helping me with my Special Serial Number PC, he also sent me some other PC items:
Thank youWoody for the very generous package. I had been distracted with other things, but you inspired me to go out and track down some new additions for this PC, along with a few new items for your PC as well.
Happy Sunday and sayonara!

2014 Triple Threads Unity Relics #UJR-BL (#'d 36/36)
Back in April, I revealed my latest project that involves collecting special serial numbered cards that contain either the first card in the print run, the player's jersey number, or the final card in the print run.
