Back to the nest

I'm spending the weekend with some old friends-- no, I don't mean my old radio buddies Jamie and Kem. They'll be there too, but I was talking about the 1982 World Champion St. Louis Cardinals, who are being honored at Busch Stadium Saturday night upon the 30th anniversary of the club's 9th title. The Cardinals picked this Iowa farmboy to be their lifelong fan 30 years ago this summer when he was just seven years old. Ozzie, Whitey, Bruce, "Mex," Obie, Tito, and Brummer-- all among the attendees. A perfect weekend to say thanks. Truly theirs was the gift that would last a lifetime.
