Hi, OBC Brothers and Sisters! I'm honored to be a member! Thanks for taking me into the group.
Time for a new Intro.
I've been a member of OBC since 2008. I love this group. I started out with a handful of pre-1970's cards and a ton of late-70's Topps and look at me now.
I was a missionary in Nicaragua for seven years. I'm a writer and a pastor. I play ultimate, collect cards, and really love my wife and kids.
OBCers (and former OBCers) I've met: Joel Gyselink, Rick Lyons, Dave Toback (Dr. Chaos), Scott Duguid, Jason Christopherson, Larry Leonard, Ken Pillion, Tony Levinson, Carl Mura, Brian Lindholme (Family Toad), Geordie Calvert, Joe Isaac, Aaron Shirley, Gersh, Brian Betza, Bob Donaldson, Joel Freedman, Dave Luciano, Sam Taylor, Bob Reed, Larry "Guru" Tipton, Doug DeJong, Nick Pelletier, TJ Valacak, Ken Morganti, Mike Mackie, Mike Mroz, Wayne Delia, John Dahms (JD), Wes Shepard, Jimi Thayer, Jay Tysver, Richard Dingman, Steve Rittenberg, Spike Glidden, Mike Rich, George Vrechek, Mac Wubben, Geno Wagner, Sal Domino, Tom Housley, Gary Mandell, Joe Adriance, Gersh, Taylor Schock, Kent Goto, Mark Talbot, Jerry Barnes, Bob Bannnon, Ron Perry, Joe Denning (50)
