I haven’t heard this in ages. Although, I assumed the video was going to be for Centerfield by John Foggerty.

Although I memorized the Simpson’s Softball song. “Well Mr. Burns had done it, the power plant had won it, with Roger Clemens clucking all the while, Mike Scoscia’s tragic illness made us smile, while Wade Boggs lied unconscious on the barroom tile, we’re talking Softball, from Maine to San Diego”

That’s enough.

Nothing pithy here. Please move long.

Adam's not old

Heard 78 rpm, and victrola cylinders before that. 33 and a third long play was a wonder when it came out. 45 rpm is still sold new, and has a collector’s market.

Hehe yeah

I know. It’s a state of mind, and as they say, it isn’t the years, it’s the mileage. You make a good point. I know people 30 years younger than me that feel, or act, or think “old”.
