88. I had the opportunity to listen to Marty and Thom Brenneman speak at Emerson Copeland in Sidney yesterday - they spoke for about 30 minutes and then opened the floor up for questions for about another 30 minutes with Copeland's own version of "Ask Marty".  They spoke on a wide variety of topics ranging anywhere from Thom out partying with Harry Carry to Marty's favorite golf courses to Thom being a sorority president at THE Ohio University to what Marty knew about Pete's betting on baseball (he knew nothing until the story broke).  Both Marty and Thom were very gracious guests and went out of their way to make everyone feel special and signed numerous autographs and took several pictures for everyone.  Marty spoke of Joe Nuxhall with very high regard and said that they worked together so long (31 years) that they were almost like an old married couple.  It was one of the most entertaining evenings that I have experienced and I will remember it forever.  Thanks to Jeremy Monnin for the invitation to join him in this special evening - it is, and forever will be, greatly appreciated!
