marshall barkmanI do not have to drag in grandad memories or girlfriends thoughts when it comes to dealing with people. What i do understand is that for some reason people think their opinion is important or should be heard in regards to the last few posts. Also wonka please know that you put up those Indian card links and one of those cards closed at nearly 3800 at auction which was far from your 500 to 750 estimate. I do currently own 11 of them and there are two that are very rare and one could possibly be the only one that survived. Also the Deadwood photo i posted which is the only one known from that era to survive.
I would never compare myself to Crandall or anyone else in regards to collecting because it is not who i am. I'm not into who has the most or has the biggest banana hammock because i have had no complaints from the ladies nor will i ever (-:
Last week i was at the track looking at my little filly who has got major scat ability, she strikes the track perfect. My partner and i sent in 6 names and the name the Jock's club chose was Unbridled's Skyhawk because the filly is out of Unbridled's Song uhhhhhhh sound familiar? Eight Belles and this year's monster 3-year old Derby favorite Old Fashioned are out of Unbridled's Song, now the girl who grooms the horse starts explaining that the name is not right, she goes on and on about how i was wrong, kind of like this board does about what we should have called her, after about 10 minutes of listening to her gas i said well really doll i wanted to name the horse Get The Salami Tommy and my friend just lost it, well the girl got pissed and instantly i was th ebad guy. Now most folks will say well you should not have said that or you are not diplomatic or i guess we can throw tact right out the window.The moral of the story is when folks start talking sh*&t i just give it back and if that makes me a bad guy then i am a real bad M^%tha F*&ker case closed.
In regards to J Levine i notice once all my fans start riding me on here that you will not be far behind. I think perhaps the only thing you could teach or educate someone on is the heckling class right now at NYU and i heard they are looking for a new teacher so i told the President you are top notch first rate old chap.
