Yesterday Was a Hell of a Day

Jim wisely changes the A’s “0″ into an “8.”Yesterday’s opportunity to meet Jim Hendry was actually only the second-best thing that happened to me. The best? Receiving an e-mail from the REAL “Son of Jim Essian.” In the “Happy Birthday, Jim Essian!” post, Jim’s nephew Bob popped up, saying, among other things, that “Uncle Jim digs [the site].” I asked him if he would contact me so HJE could send him a shirt. Jim’s son, Skip, Jr., must have read the post, because I got an e-mail from him yesterday giving me the all-clear to send Skip, Sr. a shirt. That’s right. Somewhere out there JIM ESSIAN HIMSELF is going to be sporting a Hire Jim Essian! shirt.

Skip, Jr. also sent me some great pictures of his dad, included the one in this post. Awesome. Thanks for getting in touch with me, Skip, Jr. I’ll get the shirt sent out this weekend.
