Will This Tomy Pocket Game Predict the 2012 MLB Playoffs?
October 4, 2012 The Major League Baseball Playoffs are here, and I'm sure there are many looking into the crystal ball to figure out which teams will win through the playoffs. Logic says to compare how the teams did against each other in the regular season, or which team was hot down the stretch, or who has the best best pitchers or hitters. These are all logical ways to predict winners, but it is baseball and anything can happen. Just refer to the St. Louis Cardinals in 2011 and you'll see logic may not have worked in predicting the winner as they defied the odds so many times.
A few months ago, I was cleaning out a box of stuff of mine. Somehow I was able to save these gem of a game that my father gave me in 1986, called the Tomy Pocket Game for baseball.

What Unusual Weddings Have You Attended?
October 1, 2012
I was hired to DJ a wedding that was to be held outdoors. My job was to provide sound for the ceremony then DJ the reception in the giant tents that were set up. That means I was there for the entire wedding.
The theme for this one was obviously country. It was VERY well done. The seating was hay bales, all placed in perfect rows. The backdrop to the couple was two John Deere tractors with their buckets meeting over three large bales of hay. The bridesmaids were all in dresses that they can easily wear again and the groomsmen were in jeans and plaid long-sleeve shirts. ALL were in boots. They managed to find the perfect balance of having a country wedding without it being a redneck wedding.
