March 5, 1973. Today's my big day. FEELING older each day, still looking young!!
I certainly don't have a lot of cash to buy cards, but today I'm feeling thankful for how blessed I am. Great wife, and two beautiful, healthy children.
Instead of wanting something for my birthday, I thought I'd give something away. A lot of trash on here the last few days, so wanted to thank my fellow collectors for all the gifts I've received on my time here, both cards and knowledge.
Simple: First person to guess my favorite movie of all time gets a 1987 Topps Barry Bonds PSA 9 Glossy card.
First person to guess my favorite singer of all time gets a 1975 Topps PSA 8 Reds team card.
One guess per card per person, I'll give hints later if no one nails them immediately.

Research?? Ya know, cheaters never prosper.
In this case, right on. City Slickers is second.
PM me your address, the Bonds card is yours, thanks for playing.
Next hint: The singer is in country, and perhaps to "old" to match my age.

hey! I'm workin' on it !
i'm going to guess Kenny Rogers
Forget blocking him; find out where he lives and go punch him in the nuts. --WalterSobchak 9/12/12
Looking for Al Hrabosky and any OPC Dave Campbells (the ESPN guy)
<< <i>Merle Haggard ? >>
Haggard's my man!!
Only fitting that the guy who has the Johnny Bench sigline would win the Reds Team Card. PM me your address and I'll get the card out. Congrats Tennessee!!
Thanks again all, for all the guesses and birthday wishes. You all make collecting fun for me again.
Now, for the last couple hours of my birthday, as Haggard would sing......
"Think I'll just stay here and drink"

Happy Birthday!
Looks like my guess of Ronnie James Dio would have been wrong anyway,
but if first prize is one Barry Bonds card, wouldn't last prize be twenty Barry Bonds cards?
"How about a little fire Scarecrow ?"
