Post-Christmas Penguins
Philadelphia Phantoms @ Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins
First Union Arena - December 26, 2002
My boss gave me tickets to see the Baby Pens game in Wilkes-Barre for the day after Christmas. If they were playing any other team, I would have been rooting for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, but the Phantoms are the AHL team for the Flyers, and I can't root against a Philadelphia team. The Phantoms won in overtime, 4-3.

Ladies and Gentlemen, Boys and Girls, Children of All Ages...
New Age Outlaws
World Wrestling Federation (1998)
"Road Dogg" Jessie James and "Bad Ass" Billy Gunn made their debut as a tag team on an episode of WWF Shotgun Saturday Night that aired five years ago today. This publicity photo was taken in early 1998 after the team had won their first WWF World Tag Team Championship. They would really come into their own after that year's Wrestlemania when they joined Triple H and X-Pac in the second run of D-Generation X.

Learning To Catch The Golden Snitch
Mattel (2001)
Parents have discovered a problem with a vibrating children's toy that is designed to be straddled and sat on. Evidently, it's been giving their daughters a magical experience as their re-enact the scenes in Harry Potter & The Sorcerer's Stone.

He's Back
Eric Bischoff
World Wrestling Entertainment (2002)
It's amazing how things can change in just a few short years. Imagine sending this photo through a time warp to a wrestling fan in 1997.

Ahmad's Persian Cuisine
Ahmad's Persian Cuisine
Old Market - Omaha, NE
I've never had Persian food before, but we stopped here for dinner and it was outstanding. I didn't have my camera on me, so these photos are from the Lincoln Star Journal.

Ticket To Election Night
Jesse Ventura / Mae Schunk Campaign
Election Night Party Invitation (1998)
One last piece of Jesse Ventura governor ephemera I have to share is this invitation to his party on election night in 1998. They mailed it out to Pennsylvania. I wish I could have gone - bet it was one hell of a night.

The Jesse Ventura Campaign
Campaign Pamphlet (1998)
Earlier today, The Body announced that he wouldn't run for re-election as governor of Minnesota. I don't blame him a bit, but it's a shame. The country needs leaders like Ventura who don't bow down to the two major political parties.
Dad and I ordered t-shirts and bumper stickers from his campaign in '98 and this pamphlet was in the package.
