Hey Ed! That first issue of Sports Illustrated didn't happen to be a swimsuit issue, did it?

;-)

Thanks everybody! I've had a great Birthday! Then tomorrow I go have surgery on my foot. Wish me luck! I won't be able to put weight on my foot for three months!

Scott.

 

[Scott]

Just an update! I am home from the hospital. The surgery went well. He fused a number of the bones in my foot, and added lots of hardware. Not really hurting right now because they used a nerve block, which will last three days.

Scott.

 

[Jim15]

Glad things went well. Hope you heal up quickly.

I don't think they would be happy if I cut and paste, so you will have to follow the links!!

Interesting number system, the first cover, from August 1954 is assigned the number 1970???
