The TommyRokers -- What Al Roker and Stephen King have in common

Everyone from late night talk shows to folks around the water cooler, are talking about the Al Roker interview on Dateline. He was talking about his surgery and weight loss, promoting his book My Weight Loss Journey. Apparently, after having gastric bypass surgery, this was a side effect. He mentioned being in the White House and he crapped his pants. Reporter Nancy Snyderman snidely asked for clarification, saying “You pooped your pants?”

To which Roker replied, “Yes, I…

MLB Players asking prices for Autographs.......Agree or disagree???

I don't mind paying for an autograph from Players in any sport, but don't ask for insane prices....Don't forget who helped pay your salary your whole career (your fans)... With out fans you would never have received those insane salaries to begin with!! I agree with ball players trying to cash in on their own autographs, because let's face it there are a lot of people that ask for those autographs through mail or in person that are trying to cash in on them..I collect autographs for the fun…

Golf Autographs

I was searching for information on a few autographs that I have.  I worked at the Onion Creek Country Club in Austin TX when I was a teenager and they were holding a Pro-Am golf tournament.  I have 3 score cards with the following autographs: Sam Snead, Jerry Barber, Billy Casper, Tommy Bolt, Ralph Guldahl, Gardner Dickinson and one I can't decipher.  I thought I had gotten Jimmy Demaret's autograph, this might or might not be his.  Some are personalized and are signed To Susan.  Can anyone…

History Detectives Jan 8: "The Star Spangled Banner" Manuscript Mystery

It's America's national anthem, and a historic mystery of the highest order:

Who wrote this manuscript of America's national anthem, The Star Spangled Banner? Not the poem that became the song; that was Francis Scott Key, of course. Who wrote this music manuscript of it; the musical…

I need help on finding out info about the New York Knicks!

      For many years I have went to many pacers games and have tried to get many in person autographs and have gotten guys like Deron Williams, Chris Bosh, LaAMrcus Aldridge, and many other nba stars. I am not a big fan on going to the hotel because I did not use to be in to collecting like I am now. There are a couple guys that I grew up idolizing. The New York knicks have two of those guys; Jason Kidd and Carmelo Anthony. I never have gone to the hotels in seeking of an autograph, but for…

Pay it Again, Sam -- An Expensive Piano Sells at Auction

There’s a news story I need to hide from my friend Judy. It has to do with the piano used in Casablanca being sold for $602,500 at a Sotheby’s auction last month. That was surprisingly, $200,000 less than they thought they’d get.

The piano was tiny, and had only 58 keys (that’s 30 fewer than a regular piano). The scene it was used in showed a flashback at the Parisian café (the words “La Belle Aurore” were on the window of the place).

A different piano was used in the scenes…

Stars and Their Iconic Outfits

I’m always surprised when I interview an actor and the subject of memorabilia comes up. Sometimes they’ll tell me about things they took from the set. More often than not, they regret that they didn’t take an outfit they wore in the movie or TV series.

I was thinking that while watching Django Unchained, since Leonardo DiCaprio, Jamie Foxx, and Christoph Waltz wore such interesting outfits.

I remember when talking to Barry Pearl (Barney), who played Doody in Grease, I noticed…

Hans Christian Andersen Discover!

I am still blown away thinking about how love letters Mick Jagger wrote brought in over $300,000. Well, a recent piece of writing I can see bringing in $3 million.

Fairy tale author Hans Christian Anderson, who has had his works translated to over 125 languages, wrote the classics Thumbelina, The Little Mermaid, The Tinderbox, Princess and the Pea, and The Emperor’s New Clothes – has written a piece that was never published. In fact, it was never found. Until now.
