Racked

Two stories today....

Last year I listened to my entire CD collection. The main object was to hear everything; a lesser-but-important goal was to cull about a third of the albums and sell 'em on Amazon.

Two years ago I owned 750 or so compact disks and they were scattered randomly all over the office. I'm now down to about 500 disks, with about two thirds of those in these racks and the others in decent order.

My main 366 Snaps photo idea a year ago was more or less this pic. Capturing what I could see turned out to be more difficult than I'd expected, and I ended up taking many pix from a variety of angles. Then I went with my fallback.

This is not my complete music collection. I've many recordings in a variety of formats. I still need to figure out what to do with those...

My fallback photo was of the Denny Baxter & Lew Chamberlin bobblehead, which lives (well, lived) on this rack. That became the 366 Snaps image.

There are many reasons to own a minor league baseball team, most of which I consider legitimate. My favorite owners, though, risked their fortune to bring a team to their home town. Denny & Lew, who own the West Michigan Whitecaps, fit that model. It turned out, too, that they were singularly good at running a minor league franchise, and the team's prospered. These are people I admire.

I generally avoid bobblehead giveaways. This bobble I wanted.
