Plunkitt Visits

The Great and Powerful Plunkitt made his annual trek to my humblde abode yeasterday. I guess for next year I'll have to move to an undisclosed location. He of the Baseball card kingdom where he is one of the lords of the cardboard came to rape and pillage my small, worthless village(in other words trade cards) He came with 2010 Topps Heritage cards and we swapped them out all afternoon. Once done we engaged in a Replay baseball game from 1956. The computer curiously chose to bat Al Silvera for the Reds who appeared in one game with 0 ab bats. We both wondered if he had played in the Reds Opener in 56. Well (Temple,Burgess,Kluszeski,Post,Bell,Jablonski,Robinson,McMillan,Nuxhall with Crowe and Harmon also appearing in the game) no is the answer. The Cards (Moon,Schoendienst,Musial,Sauer,Boyer,Virdon,Sarni,Grammas,Mizell with Kinder also pitching) answer many questions except Silvera? In my research I noticed that 1956 was the debut of the new Crosely Field Scoreboard known as the "most modern in any stadium in the country,and required 150,000 feet of wire" Well after that MrP wanted to grab a latel lunch at his favorite eatry Skyline Chili which does not tempt me so I passed on the invitation. He pronounced the Replay PC interesting but not worth his pesos.
In other news Tim is getting antsy about his new duty assignment, and Mike is still trying to be a soldier (dumbass). Pat is preping for his Disney vacation. Shawn has chosen to be missing in action. We have seen him but once in the last 3 weeks and that was for a haircut, but it was very nice to see Johnathan, and Lauren. Saw a picture of Jessica's baby bump and am glad I am a male not female. I do not believe I could stand that nastyness for 9 mos.
Pat and Dad report that Robb has worked on the family history and defintely made the connection of us to Patrick Henry. Further he noted that he saw some Adams and Hancock names in our past. With so much less population one wonders if a little intermingling took place. I bet so! Trying to find a name for my scooter so far General Lee, Hummer, and Donkey have been suggested. Well it will soon be July and I think that this will be a no travel summer which is okay by me. I'd rather stay home and eat sliders. So from all of here thanks for being you.
