Hey, take a walk through the pictures and let me know if anything catches your eye and I'll try and get it for you:

I'll take a pass on the used bathrobe, thanks.

 

I already called dibs on that.

And the shoes. The red high tops and the snakeskins.

Walt? Look again, they're adding more pictures.

 

One of those pairs of shoes made me wonder if Sid had a secret career as a pimp.

 

I'll reserve judgment on the footwear until our esteemed moderator weighs in.

 

Old clothes . . . really? I was hoping for a manual typewriter.

 

He's old enough to have watched Ted Williams play for the Minneapolis Millers, to have covered Willie Mays playing for the same team, and to have covered Bud Grant playing for the Gophers and Lakers and coaching the Vikings, among other things.

He also probably has a set of dentures from Halsey Hall. At one time he was the GM of the Minneapolis Lakers. Sid has earned his many detractors, but what an amazing life.

 

without comment...

 

I'd rather have Judd Zulgad's hoodie.

 

So slap, this is what you want me to get for you?

I shall do my best!

 

I want his list of phone numbers
