Hall of Fame
Last week Mark Jacobson joined Mark Garvey and many other outstanding people in the Packaging Hall of Fame....Yes, there is actually a Packaging Hall of Fame. Mark Garvey was inducted in 2006 and his best Friend, Mark Jacobson, joined him last week. I know that Mark was smiling at Mark that night. Cheers to the two most awesome and funniest guys in the Packaging Hall of Fame!
Congrats Mark!
Thanks for the congrats, Jake... and the added well wishes, Ben...In fact, Ben is sitting on my couch with me as I type, watching game 6 of the Series... (not going well in the 5th inning Phillies fans, let’s hope that changes).
Anyway, truth is that when they told me that I was chosen to be inducted as part of the HOF class of 2009, my first thought was your Dad teasing me, sing-songing, Nah, nah, nee, nah, nah-but I got in first. Fact is I could actually feel his congratulatory bear hug and good goin slap on the back that night. It made me feel good, real good.
So thanks for the compliment that your Dad and I are the most awesome and funniest guys in the Packaging Hall of Fame... but we all know that I could have been funnier than him if I wanted to, I just enjoyed playing the straight man for him too much...
