Me!!!

I remember in 1981 when Fleer and Donruss came out with their inaugural BB sets - the cards were not up to the standard of Topps but it was a good start.

So happy anniversary to them - however, 25 yrs later and Donruss no longer does BB and Fleer is well, gone.

But not the Stoneman!! I'm married 25 years today!!!!

It started out with a 10 to life sentence from the judge and I'm still going!!!

Life is great.

    Congrats, Brother Stone! Very cool. Quarter century is quite an accomplishment in this day and age . . .

    Donruss and Fleer? Was never a huge fan.

    So I guess a life sentence is not so bad, congrats Stone, goint on 17 years myself and it does seem just like yesterday. It has gotten so bad we are reading eachothers mind. A true story, we bought cards for eachother for some hallmark holiday(Valentines or Sweetest Day?) and we actually bought eachother the exact same card, pretty scary!image

    Congrats Mike! Quite the accomplishment.

    We made it 20 years but I don't think I'll make 25.

    All the best, Bob C.
