Getting My New Macbook Back to Where It Was

I still didn't find my backup hard drive so that I can get some of my checklists for Kellogg's and Sportscaster cards back on the Macbook.  At least I finally got the baseball database loaded again.  One problem - I added a table on the database to link all of the Kellogg's cards to the baseball data for every player.  I need my backup for that. 

My checklist hasn't changed recently since I've not been purchasing anything.  I haven't gone to flea markets much this year due to marathon training on the weekends and the card shows don't exist much.  Online I haven't seen much to buy, plus once it comes to getting a duplicate I am not willing to pay much.

My favorite purchases are large lots that I can dig though, but I haven't seen anything like that in a long time. 


In the 1970s we'd get mis-cut Topps cards all of the time.  I don't see many Kellogg's cards like that.  I'd like to get some of these, especially for some of my favorites - Cubs, Gehrig, 1773, 1974, 1976.

    My MacBook is about to turn 5 years old next month. It still does the job... but I'm debating on whether or not to buy a new one before this one dies. The only downside is they're so darn expensive. Lol. It's like a year's worth of my hobby budget.

    Since I teach at a private school (lower pay!), they did purchase it for me. Otherwise, I'd be stuck with my 20-year-old Gateway.

      Nice. I have a district issued Mac Book Air. But I don't like putting my personal stuff on that computer. However... I do take it on trips with me, since it's much thinner and lighter than my Mac Book Pro.

    I abstain from Apple products whenever I can... pure tech geek bias... I like to build my machines and I buy open box laptops for the cheapest price I can find. Carrying around a $180 Chromebook.

    BTW - Sent you a couple emails. I have the 72 Osteen you're looking for. No charge, just send me an address. Small price to pay for the work you've done on this blog. Thanks!
