before i get into how today went, let me rewind to when i was finishing the blog yesterday. that was when i got the news of Pete Rose dying. i have a ton of Pete Rose memorabilia, baseball cards, autographs, etc. needless to say, the news of his death was like a punch to my dick. growing up in this area and loving baseball, i think nearly every father told their kid to play like Charlie Hustle. one thing the death did was make me feel old. it also reminded me of how much my father liked him. and the asshole in me quickly wondered how much that 1964 Kahn's baseball card could now be worth.
a delightful trip into the dark mind of an evil genius or simply the musings of an asshole

stress is trying to break me...

part of my childhood has died...
i'm sure i'm not the only one that felt that punch to the gut today when the news hit that Pee Wee Herman was dead. Paul Reubens played that character so damn well that you can't imagine anyone else on earth ever doing it. i remember watching the Pee Wee Herman Show when i was probably too young to watch it. and then came the movies, Pee Wee's Playhouse, etc. that always made me laugh. and it taught me a valuable lesson in how uncomfortable can be fucking hilarious. to know that cancer was the reason for his death at 70 years old crushed me. cancer is probably one of the things i hate the most in this world. thank you for allowing a young kid to laugh at stupid shit and actually have fun.
