I found some old Mork & Mindy trading cards not too long ago, cleaning out some old storage boxes.
Ditched them, though.

Found a General Zod card.  Framing that one.

Got that one beat.  I got a Dick Cheney Rookie card from 1991.

Down in Florida I have full sets of the Topps Desert Shield and Desert Storm trading cards. :blush:

Yeah, those were great.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

QuoteRobin Williams' friends saw signs he was succumbing to depression

In June, Williams made what was to be his last major public appearance, at the San Francisco Zoo, an organization he had raised money for over the years. Along with zoo director Tanya Peterson, he toured the grounds, checking in on a parrot he had donated to the institution and feeding a howler monkey that had been named after him.

"He met the monkey and immediately quipped, 'Finally, an animal species that is as loud and hairy as I am,'" Peterson recalled. "It was on a Friday at 4 o'clock, and I kept thinking Robin Williams would probably have better things to do. But it was a lovely moment."

Maybe the monkey got the joke to?  Can't get much better than that, cross-species humour.
"We have it in our power to begin the world over again"
