My eight-year-old self would say, "WTF (he'd use the actual words, though) is with all of that WAR crap with card collectors in the future????!!!"

Then we'd both laugh and high five each other. Friends to the end!!

My eight year old (1970) self would have been amazed at all the cards of Ruth, Gehrig, Williams etc. and especially all my Yaz cards; did not pull a regular Yaz out of a pack until 1972.

He'd be even happier that I have a dog :-)
