Poker buddy Jim and I are off to Baltimore this Saturday for Antiques Roadshow. Jim got the tickets. We’ll be going down by train and then get a chance to look amazed on TV how much a piece of crap antique is worth. I will have to keep myself from yelling “Sold!” like I do while I’m watching the show on TV.
I haven’t decided what to bring with me. It has to be something common enough to be of general interest, but different enough to get me on TV. I wanted Larry to let me borrow one of his counterfeit 1957 Fender Stratocasters, but he seemed reticent. I have lots of cool stuff, including cool microphones and old Science Fiction first editions. It has to be easy to carry and cool enough to justify the list.
After the show we have tickets to an Orioles game. I am not a sports guy, but I can make a temporary exception for a baseball game.
I’ll take pictures and try to get them up next Sunday. I want to get those geeky furniture twins’ autographs.
