Bailey is in utter devotion to all things YuGiOh...which is fine..except sometimes I worry about him. We're trying to steer him towards other things...but he has so many cards, he can't keep track..buys a pack of cards whenever he gets any money...has YuGiOh posters in his room, watches the cartoons, you get the picture!

Seriously though..I worry about kids and their YuGiOh...at Christmas..Bailey's list of wants was mostly YuGiOh rare cards...I had no idea how you got them..so I went into a Game Stop and asked the sales guy behind the counter. The guy is easily in his 30's, portly, no wedding ring..(you can paint the picture! No swank in sight!) Anyway..I inquire about how to best get the cards on Bailey's list...he tells me...
"Well, I might be able to help you. I am something of an expert. I just happen to be the 6 time YuGiOh City Dueling Champion."

Like this was suppossed to impress me!

Hopefully Bailey will further his interests into other things...but I'm sure it'll be awhile!

I bet you just fell over in utter awe at this Dueling Champion! C'mon, admit it!!!

Austin's Christmas list was very specific too about the YuGiOh stuff. I just don't understand it. I guess it's similar to the Pokemon craze from a couple of years ago. He gets so exasperated with me when he gets me to play. "No Mom, you have to play an attack card with three stars not a magic card with two." Or something like that. WTF????? How do you know what card is what and when to play them? I keep thinking "And this too shall pass." No way is going to be the City Dueling Champion at 30!

Oh..you know I was practically wetting myself to have met him?! He was under that impression I think...very smug and very very proud!

Dude...get a life!

No way do I ever even try to duel with Bailey...he's brutal! Plus it hurts my head!
I'm so glad Kat finally got into Bratz dolls and girly makeup!

My 4 y/o daughter is really into making things, painting, drawing. Just doing artsy stuff. This I can relate to. Video games and YuGiOh....at least my son has my husband to play with (although he's just as confused with the cards but plays it off better than I do.)

Kids! Geesh!

IF he does grow up to be a 30+ YuGiOh City Duel Champion, with no wife, no husband, no anything but his cards and McDonalds drive thru...I'll still love him! :o

This totally reminds me of the comic shop guy on the Simpsons. I love it when Leonard Nimoy (is that who it was?) comes into the store and makes a joke about the shop guy and he says, "You, mocking me? Oh that is rich!"

Ooooh! And did he have a faux British accent? Or is that only for the warhammer stores?

Hee hee!

Nope..this guy looked like he was born in Odessa, Texas and had only been to the big town of Midland (which is the same size..but 20 minutes away!)

It was kinda sad!

OMG Yu Gi Oh is an evil presence that should be stopped!!! I hate Yu Gi Oh, I despise it, I cringe at the mention of it. Oh did I mention BOTH Kyler and Shawn collect Yu Gi Oh cards? MILLIONS of them! And they talk about $80 cards!! WTF!! That's INSANE. I refuse to buy them "rare" cards and tell then if they want them THEY buy them. We are working on YEAR 3!! with Yu Gi Oh around here and I'm sooooooooooo tired of it, soooo tired, bleech icky yucky patooey!!

Oh Dragon Ball Z is big here too, but I refuse to buy the cards, me evil mommy!
