Genius At Work: Spring Training Countdown

What do Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, Thomas Edison, Copernicus and Galileo have in common… besides the fact that they are all geniuses? That’s right, they come from New Jersey. It must be something in the water supply that makes The Garden State breeding grounds for brainiacs. Even I once boasted an IQ of 165 and I can hardly tie my shoes.

Now, you can add my friend Rob Barth, who grew up drinking that same water, to the list of notable brain children. The head honcho at Barth and Co designs, he is well known for a multitude of musical and artistic ventures. You may remember his recent Parkway Johnny series.

He has, now, made another stride toward immortality. An avid MLB baseball fan, himself, he understands well the plight of other diehards who may suffer bouts of depression once the World Series and the subsequent award announcements bring the baseball season to a dead end. He brings them hope, a light at the end of the tunnel, with a website that can only bring golden sunlight to their darkest hours. This is Rob Barth’s crowning achievement: The Spring Training Countdown. Check it out, now. Bookmark it. Send the link to all your baseball loving friends.
