What up, my peeps!?! Long time no post! Man have I been busy these last two weeks. I haven't been on very often because I had my internet taken away at work 
Chris, alt-tab doesn't do any good when the company monitors you internet activity, lol. Let's start off with my personal mojo. Since I was unable to attend the expo next weekend, I was able to work it out with the job to take a couple of days off 2 weekends ago and play in the 14th annual Las Vegas Hockey Festival. I was really exited to be asked to a part of the team, and of course, it's a trip to Vegas and why would I pass that up. Have you ever gone into a situation and just knew what was going to happen, but couldn't say anything because you are affraid of jinxing things? Well, I got to Vegas and was not nervous at all about playing, because I just knew we would do well.
Here's the team pic...
And here is the result of me being psychic...
My team is the King of the Cage Sharks. And we are the 2005 Green Valley division champions! I suffered a minor cuncussion in the semi-final game, and took a slapshot off my inner thigh in the finals that left a really cool battle wound that still hasn't gone away completely yet. But we went 5-0 in the tourney, so I am super happy. And that's my mojo!
Then last weekend, I went up to Reno to attend the King of the Cage fights. On the way up there (a 7 1/2 hour drive) I got my very first speeding ticket I am 33 years old and this is only the second time I have ever been pulled over and my first ticket. I've never had a ticket before, but I know this one's going to cost me... I got taged for doing 96 in a 65 zone... OUCH! But the fights were awesome, the ring girls were off the hook, and that made everything worth while 
Especially the ring girls
Now that I've bored you enough with my non-card stuff, let's get to the cards...
A little Ebay pick-up..
04/05 UD Ultimate #WGJ-WG1 Wayne Gretzky Gold jersey #/75 (for my set)
I also stopped by the shop to pick up the new Beckett, and grabbed a box of Artifacts because I'm weak. Here are the results....
#RED16 Montreal Rookie redemption
#68 Daniel Alfredsson base #/100
#112 Gordie Howe Legends #/899
#117 Grant Fuhr Legends #/899
#139 Mats Naslund Legends #/100
#152 Ilya Kovalchuk All-Stars #/899
#160 Milan Hejduk All-Stars #/899
#AF-SC Dave Schultz Auto-Facts #/75
#FA-EB Ed Belfour "Frozen Artifacts" jersey #/125
#TS-EB Ed Belfour "Treasured Swatches" jersey #/50
#TSD-ST Matt Stajan "Treasured Swatches" dual jersey #/25
All in all, the box was ok, I'm not disappointed. Thanks for reading folks! Comments are appreciated.
