Welcome to a blog about the one and only the Association! If you’ve never heard of them you should definitely check them out. If you have heard of them welcome to the wacky, zany and far out world of Russ, Jim, Ted, Terry, Larry, Brian and Jules! None of the pictures, songs, videos belong to me, unless its things I’ve been scanning. And in that case, they still don’t belong to me, I’m just lucky enough to be able to scan them to share with everyone!
