Many of my now former co-workers have said their goodbyes, and in about 10 minutes, I will be doing the same. But before I go, I want to rip open these last two packs of 2007 Topps Updates and Highlights.
As mentioned previously, I have had these 2007 Topps blister packs unopened since I bought them in 2009. Basically, these cards have been sitting inside waiting to be opened for more than six years. This won't take too long.
Pack 1:
- #UH75 Marcus Thames, Tigers
- #UH316 Brandon Watson, Nationals
- #UH304 D'Angelo Jimenez, Nationals
- #UH87 Jeff Karstens, Yankees
- #UH142 Jeremy Guthrie, Orioles
- #UH195 Marcus McBeth, Reds
- #UH130 Eric Gagne, Red Sox
- #UH206 Tom Glavine, Mets, Season Highlights
- #UH165 Dallas Braden, Athletics
- #UH160 Hunter Pence, Astros
- #UH262 Aaron Rowand, Phillies, NL All-Star
- #UH249 Billy Wagner, Mets, NL All-Star
Pack 2:
- #UH214 Alex Rodriguez, Yankees, Season Highlights
- #UH208 Mark Buehrle, White Sox, Season Highlights
- #UH95 Dmitri Young, Nationals
- #UH306 Paul Bako, Orioles
- #UH114 Pete Orr, Braves
- #UH131 Marlon Byrd, Rangers
- #UH125 Joe Kennedy, Diamondbacks
- #GN182 Curtis Granderson Generation Now 14 of 31 Doubles
- #UH121 Justin Duchscherer, Athletics
- #UH277 Troy Tulowitzki, Rockies/Jose Reyes, Mets Classic Combos
- #UH248 Roy Oswalt, Astros, NL All-Star
- #UH268 Carlos Guillen, Tigers, AL All-Star
Two better-than-average packs of 2007 Topps U & H. Highlights include getting felllow card collector Dmitri "da Meat Hook" Young, a bunch of All-Star cards, the Gen Now of Granderson, and...that's pretty much it.
I have to go. I'm glad many people have left, if only because I don't want them to see me crying my eyes out. I have my radio, I have my drinking cup, my Dilbert calendar (everything else I packed and took home a while ago), so I should be set.
I leave DPI Specialty Foods with my head held high. I know that these last fourteen years, through good times and bad, were very good to me. I am now off to start a new adventure. I guess I will go wherever the winds take me.
Goodbye DPI. Goodbye to all I called my co-workers and friends. I wish you well, wherever you go.
And now, for the first time in more than 18 years (because I've always had a job to go to before leaving the previous ones), I am off.
Sincerely,
JayBee Anama

I love comments. Please leave comments!!! (Ego, hush). Just keep your words clean (I show my kids this stuff), and the comment will be accepted.
If you must leave a comment anonymously, that's fine too. Although I wish you wouldn't. I'd like to get to know the people who actually read this humble little blog.
Thank you very much.
