Forged Eagles Albums

Of all the various autographs I have, it’s my signed album and CD collection I cherish most. That means I can’t resist looking at various things people are selling, usually cringing at how expensive everything is.

Of all the bands in music, and I’ve seen them all, the groups that have the most forged signatures are: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, and The Eagles. Now, don’t get me…

Florence Henderson Passed Away -- And I want to talk about Bobcat Goldthwait Instead

When I heard Florence Henderson died this morning, it was right before I was set to go on the radio and do my movie reviews for the weekend. I mentioned how The Brady…

Minnesota Vikings Autograph Photo -- The Hard Way

If you had to pick which Minnesota Vikings player you’d want a photo from -- it might be Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton. An action shot of him running for his life to not get sacked. It might be Adrian Peterson, the current running back, who is always the top in the lead in rushing.…

Late Night Shows Talk Autographs -- The Kathy Bates Edition

When the Cleveland Cavaliers won the NBA Championship last year, that assured Lebron James a special place in basketball history. It also assured the team a trip to the White House. That’s got to be a lot more special, considering the fact that the President is a hardcore hoops fan.

Oddly enough, the Cavs trip to the White House happened the same day president-elect Trump had an hour…

Autographed Sports Cards -- the Lebron James Edition

OHIO.

It was on my mind a lot yesterday (that almost sounds like a Ray Charles song). I was talking to a friend about a Fantasy Football controversy we were having (believe me, as I write that, I realize how nerdy that makes me sound). He screamed into the phone, “Oh my god! Trump just won Ohio. This election is all over.”

That was four hours before it was…

Free Books, Cool Memorabilia -- The Emma Watson Edition

Harry Potter memorabilia goes for a lot. I’m guessing the cast of the movie is sick of signing Potter photos everywhere they go.

Actress Emma Watson, who played Hermione (and had such a hysterical turn in This is the End, and terrific role in The Perks of Being a Wallflower) did something…

Elijah Wood Would...Sign Autographs Even if he Doesn't Want to

One of the great things about the late night shows (aside from the terrific humor of Jimmy Kimmel), is when celebrities tell stories, and talk of signing autographs arises.

The other night, Elijah Wood was on one of the shows. He said, “I just hate signing autographs. I hate it, but I can’t say no. These people come up to me, and I know they’re going to just sell these things, but I…

Guess Who Got to Meet Tom Brady?

I always get a kick out of stories where one celebrity asks another for an autograph. The last blog I wrote dealt with Phil Collins and his bad experience asking Sir Paul McCartney for a signature. This latest story, worked out a lot better for the person requesting an autograph.…
