What cards on your desk..what's on your iPOD and whatcha reading?
It occurred to me that we all have at least old cardboard in common...what else do you suppose?
How about some fun posting your quick replies to these questions: What cards are on your desk : E96 McQuillan which I need to put with my others and 41PB Ott that I recently got from BST (thanks Stefan) What's on your iPOD : I Just listened to some REM and David Gray (Sail Away!) Whatcha reading: Thomas Boswell's "Heart of the Order", a compilation book of some of the great baseball writer's work. Very insightful! Have fun!

I'll Play
Right now I have a small stack of 1920's Exhibits, M101-6s and assorted 1930's premiums on my desk. I do not own an IPod but I have The Allman Brothers Live at The Fillmore East in the 8 track, make that CD player in my computer right now. Currently rereading Albert Goldman's, The Lives of John Lennon.
