[Taxman]

I arrived at the National on Wednesday and stayed until Saturday afternoon. I left town with 1000 in my pocket and came home with 1900 and the items below(the basketball boxes are empty). While in Baltimore I was able to go on a tour of Camden yard. My goal of going to the National was to get Jim Browns autograph(nice guy shook my hand and looked up). I was able to upgrade my Namath rookie from a 4 to a 5. It was nice to get to meet other board members(Mike, Matt, Bill, Neil, Bill). Thanks Mike for tkts to the PSA luncheon. The National was nice but my plane trip back was the icing on the cake. I got to sit beside Bart Starr. We talked the whole flight from football to baseball(he is a huge Stan Musial fan..even had the SI with the article on Musial) to local Alabama politics. I did get some cards graded by ISA due to the fact it was only $5 per card and a 1hr turn around. Their grades seemed to be fair. Also got to meet Carol. She was very nice and helpful.
