A place where Colorado Rockies baseball card collectors (all 3 of us) can waste some time reading about our favorite sport. The Rockies and their cards will be the primary focus, but I like to go off on tangents as well so anything and everything baseball related may be covered here.

Bad News...Well, not for you...Just for Me

When I took my sabbatical from blogging, I didn't have much use for my scanner.  It was basically a large paperweight, although I did set my Playstation on top of it for a while.  Anyway, the point is I hadn't used it since around August.  Well, I was going to scan a very generous package from everyone's favorite Baseball Dad, Jack from All Tribe Baseball, which included an AWESOME pack of 2003 Donruss Estrellas along with the 2011 Rockies team set from the Topps Limited Edition set.  Unfortunately, I got a nice l'il error message which after a bit of Internet tracking told me NOTHING.  Actually, it did tell me one thing...I need a new scanner.

Now with my current financial situation, this ain't happening for a little bit.  So I will continue blogging, but I will only be able to use pictures that I have used on the blog before or scans that I hadn't used yet but are on my hard drive.  This sucks, because that means no scanning cool new (for me) cards that I get from the generous community, but eventually I will either my scanner fixed by a magical elf or I will break down and buy a new one.  Until then, I will be working on posting want lists and hot stove news and the occasional brilliant commentary (ED NOTE: Your definition of brilliant may be different than the author's).
