A general discussion of collecting cool things, such as vintage and modern toys, comic books, ephemera.
Saturday morning was dark and stormy, but that didn’t stop me from from trying to find a yard sale or two. The sales were sparse and many of the people who had advertised, got scared off by the impending doom that the dark clouds were threatening. At a church sale I visited, only two people [...]
That’s right, I said “winners” with an “s.” Hake’s was so impressed with the articles the League of Extraordinary Bloggers produced last week that they decided to up the ante in a BIG way, and award TWO sites the $100 credit! Congratulations go to Calvin’s Canadian Cave of Cool and Neato Coolville for taking the [...]
The League of Extraordinary Bloggers is celebrating its first birthday! Can you believe it’s been a year since this whole thing started?

Thanks for playing along in this social experiment guys! In just three [...]

After next weekend’s games, we’ll know the other three teams that will be fighting for the coveted gold turtle. Even when the Bears have a good week, the Dorke [...]
Thanksgiving arrives next week and with Thanksgiving comes one of the greatest movies of all time. No, not Thankskilling (good guess though). Of course, I am referring to the Steve Martin and John Candy magnum opus Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. It just isn’t Thanksgiving until this movie is shown in our home. But let us [...]
Has the miraculous run of Top Hat Sasquatch come to an end? What happened to Team Hellions? And who can beat those Noisy Devils?
