For Scher(zer)!

Today I received a nice package and had another dropped off. The package that was mailed to me had my 11.09.2015 Sports Illustrated in it. It now has six autographs on it with Luke Hochevar being added via a signing with Doug B (dugoutdug on SCN). Doug did a great job with it and getting back in the mail to me real fast.
My other item received today was from Nick K. Nick lives near me and goes to the hotel and ballpark chasing autographs. Earlier in the season he was able to get Willians Astudillo to sign his 2019 Topps Heritage card. When the Nationals were in town towards the end of the season he was able to get Max Scherzer(!) to sign the 04.28.2014 Sports Illustrated at the hotel. He said Max was a little tipsy and was willing to sign. He also got Brian Dozier to sign the ticket when he hit three home runs for me at the same time. I am REALLY excited to add Max on that SI to my collection. I have sent that issue to no less than five people to try to get it signed. Thanks for all your work Nick!

Ari

Today I received a couple items signed by Ari Fleischer. Ari was the Press Secretary during 9/11 and tweets what was happening real time every 9/11 anniversary. I get chills and am brought back to 9/11/01 every anniversary based on his tweets. It is something everyone should follow if they are on twitter.
This 9/11 reminded me I wanted to add his autograph to my collection so I sent his book “Taking Heat” along with a signature card to his office and received both signed today along with a nice note from him. Thanks Ari!
