But I had 45s too, before that, and a couple full-length records, mainly Ronco greatest hits from 1979, 1980…I do remember both Cars by Gary Numan and Pop Muzik being on there…
45s…Jukebox Hero, Don’t Bring Me Down, Whip It, Puttin’ on the Ritz…

BTW,
I want a SGA Travis Buck bobble head.
I have a SGA Rickey Henderson jersey, Large and still packaged, plus an A’s cooler bag to trade if anybody’s interested. I also have a # of other A’s SGA bobble heads to trade. Name your price.

Cool
I’ve got a bunch of baseballs but they’re all for collecting, not using (All-Star balls, various leagues, etc.).

Bringing glove and ball
On public trasportation as we speak

QOTM... very well played
I think the funny thing is that the mobile site doesn’t tell you that but the one where you have a full browser does, which I find strange.

A family schudeling conflict is keeping me from going, I'm upset about it
I’m writing Christy now, I finally have my internet connection back. I have to go somewhere else tomorrow, it’s Family, it’s beyond messed up.
Christy will explain when you see her. Please have the best time ever.

Extra ticket!
My +1 bailed, so I have an extra ticket to the shindig tomorrow. Anyone want to go? Email me! I also posted a fanshot.

Okay!
Seafood prepped. I’m gonna go take a little nap.
I couldn’t find a good card for Duke. If anyone has the time to look for one, that would be great. Otherwise, I think signing the banner would also be sweet.
See you soon!
