I wasn’t planning to post today, but I had to mention this.
I knew when I saw this Metafilter post on POGs this morning, it was only a matter of time before I got mentioned. Thank you, Martin…I think.
Anyway, that encouraged me to go through and add the “POGs” tag to some of my previous posts to fill out the category a bit. I consider that part of my penance for having sold the damned things in the first place.
I’m afraid to check on e-bay and see what a complete 700 NHL pog set goes for.It cost me a fortune to put it together by the pack at the time.But I don’t blame the dealer who took my money.I would thank him for teaching me a life lesson.Namely,to not chase garbage that you don’t enjoy in the first place and can’t even really play with.It’s served me well.
BTW I see Blackbriar Thorn is appearing in JLDark #12.Being made of wood,he’s got ties to the Green.Hopefully,John asks help from Swampy and we get another appearance.The New 52 is certainly working for me!Can’t wait for Snyder to cross him with Batman!
