Hello. I am not Joe Pera. But I am dressed up like him for Halloween. While some may choose their costume with the intention to play a trick on others & provide a good-natured fright, I have chosen to be a hard-working yet humble middle school choir teacher. Now that is a treat everyone can enjoy.

Our cat is currently watching Looney Tunes. He seems to be very impressed by Sylvester and is nodding occasionally. He just rolled on his back to be able to see better.

I'm not holding high hopes for a merry Christmas this year, folks. Santa's been face down next to my neighbor's garage for a few days now. It's getting kinda bleak.

A worthwhile trip to the (not so) Local Card Shop.
Making progress on both Bob Forsch and Tom Herr. I will likely resume Tom Pagnozzi and start Fernando Vina before the end of the summer.
Also picked up complete sets of 1984 and 1985 Topps.
