when the living was easy

Here’s a feel good story about a career minor-league pitcher who has struck it rich. By helping a distant family member in the Mass Berkshires he became a billionaire.

Matador Records is re-issuing three Pavement LP’s on 180g vinyl. Don’t know what this will do to the value of my original pressings.

One of the great television shows of the late 90’s (about the early 80’s) was Freaks And Geeks. It lasted two unforgettable seasons and in ’04 a DVD box set was released in two versions, limited 8 DVD Yearbook and as a standard 6 DVD set. Of course, I purchased the higher priced version and had forgotten about it until recently.

A teammate mentioned that he had received the dvd set and thoroughly enjoyed watching it again. More ebay research revealed that the (now OOP) Yearbook version has finally gone up in value. There is nothing like ‘reliving the humiliation of high school' and he has offered the set for viewing. Make sure to revisit the main characters and check out Nick and Daniel’s album reviews.
