How Insanely Awesome Is This?

So I woke up this morning to find my 4 and 6 year-old kids (boy and girl, respectively), set up a very neatly organized baseball card store in the living room. The boy was also selling guns, which harkened me back to a strange combination store where I grew up in Brooklyn, called Alpine Arms, which was a gun store that also sold baseball cards. Strange and funny coincidence, there, I guess.

Anyways I thought this was awesome, speaks to how passion for baseball, its history, and cards can be contagious, and most importantly-- yes, that is a 1986 Sportflic Big Six Rookies with Canseco, Greenwell, and Tartabull on it. When I was ten I thought that card was the coolest thing ever. In a way it still is.
