The mystery box
Nah - it's called parental amnesia. We have so many other things to keep track of (kids schedules, sports, activities, etc.) that we can't remember the things *we* need to do.

All yesterday I kept reminding myself that I had a meeting at school today, Wednesday - but DUH!! the meeting's not until Thursday - so I wasted all that energy for nothing.

And yes, I forgot to bring all the boxes today. Of course.

Hardly. Box "B" is still on my dining room table. I need to rebox it up and put in some goodies, then it'll be off.

How do us relitivly new users get involved with the mystry box. I haven't had the oppertunity to trade or deal with other members of Card Talk yet (althouig I'm hopeing to get more involved in 2005). Is there a central list of all Card Talk memeber with e-mail addresses? I would love the oppertunity to see whats in the box, and add a few gems that I have collected over the years

Well, for me, I wanted to send it to someone who's address I didn't have, so I asked around discreetly and got it Smile

Which doesn't really answer your question, does it...

I guess the answer is, trade with someone Smile That way someone will have your address if they get asked

I suppose just start trading as much as you can. The more people have your address the more likely you are to get the box. But fearnot, i doubt these boxes will go out of circulation anytime soon!!! Big Grin
