Some Baseball Hall of Fame Autographs Part One

Jim Bunning signed index card
The other day was looking for something out in my shed and I stumbled upon a couple of boxes I had. They were boxes of envelopes that contained autographs. At one time in my life, I was really into it but as my kids got older I kind of stopped collecting. I still retain what I had. I took a bunch of pics and I will be sharing them from time to time. This one is the baseball Hall of Famers that I have, they are mostly index cards (will break it up into two parts):

Duke Snider
Bowie Kuhn
Billy Williams
Nolan Ryan signed card
Bobby Doerr signed Cooperstown Postcard
Whitey Herzog
Frank Robinson
Lee MacPhail
Enos Slaughter
George Kell

A Peek at the San Mateo County Fair


I guess I should post this before I head to the Marin County Fair tonight as I went to the San Mateo County Fair a couple of weeks ago (We have a lot of county fairs around here).I had never been there and it was pretty cool:

A Tree Person
The Ferris Wheel
A Lego Death Star
Got to include a cow
Like those handmade purses
The real reason I went to the San Mateo County Fair was to see Morris Day and The Time play. I used to like them back in the day and they put on a real high-energy show:

Morris Day
Morris Day and The Time
Morris Day checking himself out in the mirror
Morris Day singing away
And finally a little fair food:

Turkey Legs
MMM-Corn Dogs

Happy 4th


Just wanted to say Happy 4th of July to all:



Always remember our founding fathers words from 237 years ago:
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.


Have a great and safe Independence Day:

Wall to Wall Books-Bibliomania of Oakland


I love books and I love bookstores. One of the best is Bibliomania in Oakland. I headed over there one day recently and took some pics:

As you walk in
One of the many rows of books
Another great row
They have a great and interesting selection of books:

Love it
All you can do is laugh
Used to love this strip
Love it from back in the day
Another view of the inside
Bibliomania in Oakland is a cool place to spend an afternoon browsing for books.

Some Cool Hot Rods


I was at the San Mateo County Fair recently and it was cool (future blog) but I thought the Juggers Racing Team exhibit was one of the coolest things there:

1957 Chevy Wagon
1952 Chevy
1968 Chevy Camero
1932 Plymouth Business Coupe
1951 Henry J. Kaiser "Evil Twins"
1934 Ford Pickup
1940 Olds 4-Door Sedan
These cars were just so cool. I would to pimp one.
