    1975 World Series Parade

    My mother at the World Champions parade in downtown Cincinnati in October of 1975. She's holding my first Reds batting helmet in her hands. Nice threads, huh?
    As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly.

    That hat is really something special.

    Witty signature.

    My first batting helmet was an Ice Cream dish... somewhere there's a picture of it. I think my uncle has it.

    I had one of those plastic batting helmets. I made the mistake of wearing it to school once and some bullies took it and smashed it on the bike rack.
    Wear gaudy colors, or avoid display. Lay a million eggs or give birth to one. The fittest shall survive, yet the unfit may live. Be like your ancestors or be different. We must repeat!
