<p><p><p>Hi, Roy.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>omething from Markakis would be wonderful, and very much appreciated! I am glad that you were close friends with Curt (sorry for mispellling his name yesterday) and that's neat that you still corresond with Merv. Tell him thank you for all the wonderful memories he provided!</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>Hi, Roy.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>The checks are in the mail! I agree with the items and the amounts. In terms of favorite Orioles, I became a fan in 1966, so from that era (through the early 1970s), I liked Andy Etchebarren, Merv Rettenmund, Mark Belanger, Paul Blair and Curt Motten. From the late 1970s -1980s I liked Mike Devereaux, Todd Cruz (don't ask my why), John Lowenstein, Doug DeCinces (again, beacause no one else did) and Rich Dauer.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>Current Oriole favorites are those who get excoriated on the message boards, so I like David Lough and Ubaldo (because no one else does; he's handled a tough year with class). Also am a big fan of Caleb.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>Don't sweat the bonus items; anything would work - it will make a great story for the triplets.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>Hi, Roy.</p></p></p>

<p><p><p>I will bid $400 on the Ray Lewis jersey.</p></p></p>
