Bangin Pots: The Freddy Sez Story

As a tribute to the old Yankee Stadium (or the newer incarnation of the old Yankee Stadium) we made a short documentary last year about Fred Schuman aka Freddy Sez. On the way from his Upper West Side apartment to the Bronx for the Stadium’s last opening day, the eighty-three year old tells tells the story of his transformation into the Yankees’ pan-and-spoon-carrying unofficial mascot. We’ve saved it for this moment, and we hope you enjoy.

    One more thing. I believe that there are quite a few travel insurance websites of reputable companies than enable you to enter your holiday details and get you the prices. You can also purchase an international travel cover policy online by using your current credit card. Everything you should do is usually to enter the travel specifics and you can view the plans side-by-side. Just find the system that suits your capacity to pay and needs after which use your credit card to buy that. Travel insurance on the internet is a good way to take a look for a dependable company for international travel insurance. Thanks for expressing your ideas.

    First off I want to say terrific blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind. I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your head prior to writing. I have had a difficult time clearing my mind in getting my ideas out. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints? Kudos!
