Point of order. When the word "toupee" is used, the word "bad" is unnecessary.

Cool. I am listed in a number of Marquis Who's Who in America volumes but then so are many other people.

My wife and I were the 1979 Showpalace Hawaiian Disco Champions. I'm sure that's good for just about nothing. Haha. :-)

I know a couple best-selling authors living here. Is that celebrity status?

Default Here's one!

Today's sun has a great article about George Yankowski of Polo Ridge, who played major league baseball for the Chicago White Sox, and was even managed by Babe Ruth in an all star benefit game. After he got the game winning hit, the Babe put his arm around him and said "Nice going kid".

That's a celebrity in my book!

I only get up Glenview Golf Course about every other month and twice in the past five years I've been paired with former major league catcher Bob Stinson. I guess he lives near there. He played from 1969 to 1980 for six different teams.

Bob Stinson Position: Catcher Bats: Both • Throws: Right 5-11, 180lb Born: October 11, 1945 (Age: 73) in Elkin, NC

Drafted by the Kansas City Athletics in the 3rd round of the 1965 MLB June Amateur Draft from Miami Senior HS (Miami, FL), the Washington Senators in the 1st round (13th) of the 1966 MLB January Draft-Secondary Phase from Miami Senior HS (Miami, FL) and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 1st round (15th) of the 1966 MLB June Draft-Secondary Phase from Miami-Dade College (Miami, FL).

I doubt if you recognize he now from his earlier photos.

Why are a lot of people a))s here? Bob Stinson is around. I remember him at Sarasota. Catching messed up his hands sadly but he seemed a nice guy. Stop hating on people. You hate here you must be ugly inside in 'real life'. Stop being ugly. Attack me, no problem as I log in every couple months, but come on, be on topic and not a d-ck.
