Dirk Hayhurst: Non-Prospect Diary

Click here to read an AMAZING story

 

This came to my attention via Mark Patrick and MLB This Morning show on XM 175 today. It really got to me and I suppose that’s because I just had a baby boy and can easily place myself in this parent’s position but man oh man, it must be hard. I can only imagine. Beyond the story content itself, it struck me as to how well written the piece was. How cogent the thoughts and clearly stated. Good writing is a treat. It’s not easy to do. Check this out. It is a 4 minute read, tops. –fog

Mickey Mantle back in a bar?

 

Here are some shots of Mickey years ago when he was on display at Mickey Mantle’s Restaurant on Central Park South. He was tucked right in up near the bar so it was hard to get a good shot of him with the space and dim lighting and all.

Remember, this is a life-size, solid-wood, hand-carved job.
