Have you ever heard the George Brett story about a trip to a Las Vegas steakhouse and an unfortunate accident he had in the Bellagio lobby? His story, the above photo, and a personal update is the inspiration for this post.
I'm not going to retell or summarize Brett's tale... but it involved him consuming some bad crab. Combine that information with the look on his face & the posture of his body in the photo used on his 1991 Post card and hopefully that connects enough dots for those of you who have never heard it.

If you still have no idea what I'm talking about and you're okay with "gross" stories... just search up "George Brett Infamous Story" on YouTube. But don't say I didn't warn you.

Anyways... this week I didn't get food poisoning... but I came down with something similar. To make a long story, not so long... I was down for the count the past few days. The headache was so bad, I thought I had COVID again... but I tested negative.

I'm still hoping to make my way out to the Branham Flea Market tomorrow morning and possibly hit up the local mall show to pick up some cards from a friend. We'll see how that plays out.
Just wanted to get out a quick post, show off some "food issue" cards of Mr. Brett, and update my fellow card bloggers on why it's taking me an extra day or two to comment on your posts.
If by chance, I'm not following your blog, share your blog's website down in the comment section. I'm always looking forward to reading new blog posts.
And if by chance you've noticed I haven't commented on your blog for quite some time, please check your "SPAM" folder in the comment section. I've been noticing that my comments will sometimes disappear.
Happy Friday and sayonara!

Hope you are feeling better - never say never, but never want to feel sick the way George was after eating crab legs.
Glad you are feeling a bit better. Show off your finds when you can!
