That's a classic action shot, congrats Sean.

No cards -yet, but got some new pipes. Too cold to try 'em out however.

Nice Steve, sorry your bike is stored away.

Another benefit of moving from Boston to California, I rode today.

It's a balmy 35 today in Boston you could have easily ridden here; the three feet of snow we have had so far is all cleared off the roads too.

Let's see....

Sean - Love your Cobb
Paul - Your website is fantastic and I think your wife is certainly a "keeper"
Steve - The bike looks great, don't let weather hold you back, dress warm!

Yes, a little jealous on this end but happy for all of you.

Have a great holiday!

My wife keeps asking me what I want for Christmas. I say: A T206 Walter Johnson portrait. She says: I'm not getting you just a little piece of cardboard for Christmas. What do you really want?

Ed, as your attorney I am offering you free advice (which means it's worth...well, you can guess): buy the card and when your wife asks what you want for Christmas you simply reply "thanks, but I already bought myself my present!" Her ensuing guilt from thinking that you do not believe she is capable of buying you the correct present will probably result in you receiving extra presents from her.

Ed, when she tells you she wants a diamond for a gift tell her you're not buying a tiny little rock as a present.

Jeff -- you should think about quitting the bar and becoming a Jewish mom!

Paul, how do you think I got this way -- and why do you think I do all that I can to keep my mom away from my kids?

Jeff -- keeping her away may not help. I believe there's a guilt gene.

I know this sounds weird, but I don't really like getting baseball cards for Christmas.

One of my guys (3 year old identical twins) grabbed the box of Quisp out of my hands today, walked over to the cabinet and announced "I need a bowl to put this Quisp in." I thought that was pretty cool.

The advice is good, Jeff, but I'd be sleeping on the couch for a while. I think if she knew the cost of the little piece of cardboard, she'd say: "try again, we're trying to stay on a budget here." She has made it abundantly clear that she doesn't understand the fascination with cardboard, but I have to respect it.

Still, I salute the wives who gift vintage cardboard.
