Name something different (to you) that you own
 

I have an autographed basketball from Michael Jordan.

(Mid-80s) It was the last day of my summer (sports) internship at the Detroit Free Press. A Nike-sponsored event had Jordan in town with a few Pistons (Dumars, Rodman, etc...)

Getting the autograph was totally unprofessional (as I was a reporter) but it was the last day of the internship, so I was getting the autographed ball. :) MJ was actually pretty chilled, easy to talk to. He and Joe Dumars were just regular dudes.

....I think the ball's in a closet off of my family room.

Her name is Charlotte, and she's very friendly. :)

You are joking, right? Please tell me you are playing, Cheerful!

Nope. I've had her for almost 7-years. :)

Is her name adapted from "Charlotte's Web?" ...if so, I think I feel some kinda way about that. :)

lol
Yep. That's exactly why I named her Charlotte. :)

I would have never connected you to spiders lol. And you pick her up like that?

That was a great book from my childhood. Still makes me sad, Charlotte gettng ready to pass away and having Wilbur watching out for her pending offspring.

....geez, Cheerful, you're about to bring down my morning. Charlotte was boss! :)

Yep. I pick her up all the time. It's a little more difficult now, because she's bigger than my hand, so I have to hold her with both hands. I mean, as long as she's not ready to molt, she doesn't mind being held.

lol
She was. I saw the movie when I was a kid. It was sad at the end, but she was so giving. I loved the moral of the story.

How much do you think that ball is worth? Probably a lot, huh? :)

What do you feed her?

I have a baseball signed by Ken Griffey, Jr.

Don't really know. Depending on if MJ is a big autograph signer or not, my ball could have some value.

Funny thing is I've never, even as a kid, been "autograph guy." Now, if I run into you at Cedar Point, I'm likely getting an autograph then. :p

You should get it appraised just to see what it's worth. You might be surprised. I mean, especially it being signed by Michael Jordan.
lol
We'll have to exchange autographs. I'll print out one of your posts in D&R random, so you can sign it for me. :p
