Bookemdanosports reaches 500 postings

On July 4, 2009, Bookemdanosports entered the blogging world. The first postings were introduced during a weekend stay, in a room, at a lodge in Greer, Arizona. Almost two years have flown by and this morning Bookemdanosports reached the 500 mark in postings, daily tidbits of information, focusing mainly on old-time ball players (locally in Tucson and nationwide), a little bit of personal info, sprinkled in with some national news and a few words of wisdom.

My old laptop is still blazing away. Unfortunately, so is the town of Greer as the Wallow Fire spreads across southeastern Arizona, making its way into New Mexico. There seems to be no end in sight as the Wallow Fire is just five percent contained as of this morning, June 10, 2011.
