WOW!!! I got a huge surprise for "Fathers Day"

[hayn]

My day started out like any other day. I have a check list that I go through due to my injury that affects my short term memory. Straighten out the bedroom, clean out the kitty litter, make sure kitty has a fresh bowl of water, open up a can of kitty food, make sure all of the previous days chores have been appropriately cared for, check on my email, read the days news via my iPad, turn on the flat panel screen and watch the NFL Network, and finally the most pertinent item of the day; "Check out the various threads on CCW"!

Once this gets done, I'll prepare breakfast for my wife and I. My occupation included Jazz musician and Executive Chef among my various choice of careers. I'm actually contemplating opening a card shop! Either a actual brick and mortar establishment or a online store. I'm thinking that both of these ideas would be the best solution for me. But that dream is still many years away as I still need therapy both physically and mentally. As I tell my children; "All the money in the world is a great thing! But without your health, enjoyment of such makes it difficult to enjoy your wealth. Prosperity in a balanced lifestyle is the key to your success in life"!

So prior to my preparations of our Sunday Breakfast, I noticed our printer automatically turning on (It's one of those high end network wireless thing-a-ma-bob-thingys) as I awaited the document to print, I wondered; "Who is printing something on Sunday"? This is the document that was printing!

Of course I was shocked, happy, and excited in a child like display! Something akin to a little kid on Christmas Day! My wife was laughing when she heard the ruckus in the living room. She was in the bedroom where we have her office set up. As I went in she announced; "Happy Fathers Day"! I was speechless! Not just one hobby box but two and a bonus item.

The first item is a product that we both love. 2012 Panini Black. The second product that promises a multitude of auto's, auto-relic, or relic per hobby box is the 2012 Panini Momentum. And finally a free bonus box of 2012 Upper Deck. Mrs. Toshi mentioned that I should be receiving my Fathers Day gifts by mid-week! I can't wait!!!!

Until then, I would like to share our previous purchase of a 2012 Panini Black hobby box and two packs of 2012 Panini Momentum! And as soon as I receive all three gifts, I'll do a step by step pictorial break of our purchase! Thank you, and to all fathers, "Happy Fathers Day"!

This item was purchased by my daughter at our local hobby shop here in Streetsboro, Ohio. The "Collectors Palace". She surprised me with two packs of 2013 Upper Deck SPx. Another "Happy Fathers Day". Here is my breaks!

awesome stuff...my experience with black was horrible...opened one box and it was bad..lol but looks like ur first was great...hope this next one is great too!!! happy dad day!

And a "Happy Father's Day" to you too!

I feel you, in paying for a high end product only to see that the high end hobby box has unknown rookies players with autos. I do understand that you can't pull a RGIII auto patch in every break. It's either a hit real big YAHOOOOO break, or a OMG, OMG, OMG, I'll never buy this again. I'm definitely looking for the best hit possible, it would be perfect if the "Black" has a RGIII auto patch in the break. Well, at the very least, I can dream about it.

A good example is the Momentum photo above. Who is Cory Harkey????? Wikipedia says he was cut and now he is looking toward a career with the Canadian Football League.

That's awesome. Panini Black is one of my favorite products of the year. If you pull any Cowboys, Andy Dalton, or Michael Floyd, please keep me in mind & see if we can work a trade.

No problem, I'll keep my eyes open for cards that you would like to trade for!
