From The Detritus Of My Youth


Have I shown these before? They are my marbles from when I was a kid. We found them when we cleaned out my moms garage (let the lost marbles jokes flow). I mentioned them to a friend a few years ago before they resurfaced sight unseen he said,"I'll give you a hundred bucks for them." Then I thought,"How can you put a dollar value on priceless memories? Now I think "Where's that dudes phone number?"

Not really, they are too cool to have around and I really did play with them a lot. Many of them were old when I won them, making them probably 70+ years old.

From The Detritus Of My Youth


Found when cleaning moms garage out, this was one of my favorite comics- it is worn feeling from being read hundreds of times. When I first got it I would finish reading it and just start over. I remember the cover tease, The Betrayal Of Superman stopping me dead in my tracks. Most of my comics were bought at Fults News Stand on the square in Denton.
