I've tried to comment on several blogs this morning and every time I get the "Publishing..." box without the comment actually being published. I was able to leave a comment on a Word Press blog, but not on any Blogger blogs... including my own:
2026-27 School ID Card
Switching gears, I apologize for the lack of posts. I was hoping to hammer out some Flea Market Finds, but the start of the school year is typically hectic. Plus I've been more tired than usual, so when I get home I've been recharging my batteries watching tv rather than playing with my baseball cards.
I even missed out on publishing my annual birthday post. Here are the trio of cards I've added to my Birthday PC since last year:
2017 Topps Now #547
Back on September 1st, 2017... Clayton Kershaw returned from the DL to help the Dodgers snap a five game losing streak.
Unfortunately the victory came at the expense of my favorite National League team.
2019 Topps Now #778
On September 1st, 2019... Justin Verlander pitched the third no-hitter of his career.
After walking Cavan Biggio in the bottom of the first inning, he shut down the final twenty-six batters he faced in the game (14 by strikeout).
2022 Topps Now #825
On September 1st, 2022... Spencer Strider struck out 16 against the Colorado Rockies to set an Atlanta Braves single game franchise record.
Speaking of birthdays, here's a cool present I received on Wednesday from one of my students:
1996 Collector's Edge President's Reserve #375
Stubblefield is one of his defensive coaches, so he got me a signed card for my birthday.
Well that's it for today. I'm really hoping that the "comment" issue will be fixed soon. Although reading blog posts are a huge part of my interaction with fellow collectors... exchanging comments is equally important.
Happy Friday and sayonara!

Happy belated birthday. Have you ever searched for Topps gold parallels numbered 0901/20xx?
Happy Belated Birthday!
Test, test.. Fuji is the best.
Looks like Blogger has figured out the issue. 🥳
gcrl - thanks. i just searched comc and didn't see any cards serial numbered to my birth year, but i love the idea.
rod - thank you
defgav - appreciate you testing it out.
i was able to comment from my phone but not my laptop. weird.
Oh, we're back! We are so back!
Happy belated!
(1) Blogger sure has had its share of glitches lately. Glad this one seems to be fixed.
(2) If that cheesehead photo is the actual photo on your school ID, that's fantastic!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday!
Hope you had a relaxing birthday. I've noticed Blogger commenting has been shaky lately. Hopefully you're able to read this comment.
Update: It's working :)
Topps NOW cards of Verlander are cool.
Good Job! 👍
Happy new school year! I'm glad comments are working again. That Stubblefield is a very cool present! And of course I love seeing Verlander here, even as an Astro.
Hmmmm Maybe that is why I did not get any replies on my last post. It is nice getting replies because I put a lot of time looking info up and scanning cards. Let's see if my comment gets posted.
Happy belated birthday! That was Verlander's second no hitter of the Jays. Booooo!
I can't comment in Safari anymore. Only Chrome. I suspect Google shenanigans.
I struggled with uploading photos yesterday. It was a huge pain. Finally after multi attempts they went through.
Thank you for all of the birthday wishes. Glad that Blogger fixed the commenting issue.
gregory - that is indeed my school id (yearbook too) photo. i've been very lucky to have principals who put up with my shenanigans.
dennis - verlander will always be a tiger first in my eyes
rr - hope people have been able to comment on your posts. if not, it might have to do with your blog not popping up on peoples' reading lists. although i feel like they fixed half of the issue. posts are still delayed though. if that happens, try to do night owl's feedburner trick
nick vossbrink - i hope they don't try to make it hard for apple users. i don't use safari a lot, but i use apple products for my phone and computers
matt - the photo thing was an issue recently for me too, but i thought it was an isolated event (so i didn't bother to complain about it in my post).
