  1. There is a Sicilian Cafe nearby that has a sign in the front window that announces that they "will be closed on all lFederal / National Holidays." The manager got all pi$$y when I told him that that meant he was going to be open two days a week. Doesn't bother me one way or another. All of his recipes start with 50% garlic. I like garlic, but really.....!
  2. Camera flash cubes. Polaroid. Honeywell Pentax. Slide rules. Enclosed slide fire escapes. The March of Dimes. Jacks ( the game). Auto jack handles that doubled as starting cranks (MGA and Triumph TR 3 series still had them in the 1960s.)
  3. I never noticed that before but you researched it for me. Thank ye kindly, Sor.
  4. I don't really care how anyone takes it, I was raised to call adult women Ma'am and girls Miss. Been doing that since I was old enough to talk and am not about to change for some "politically correct" BS.
  5. When pet rocks were the craze a man in San Bernardino opened a grave yard for pet rocks in his back yard.
  6. Like Custer needed more Indians.
  7. My birthday was two days ago. I used those two days to celebrate NOT being named Sean, Patrick, or Brian. Tom just fits me better because that's what most people call me anyway.
  8. Okay, I' m sold. How do I get DDG and dump Google?
  9. We'd be ahead if we let (forced?) D. C. to return to being a swamp.
  10. I'm 83 years old as of yesterday. I can't afford 20-30 seconds so I just move on. Not my loss. Theirs. Not enough that they will even notice....unless several thousand people do the same thing.
  11. You a Southern boy, aincha? I never heard that north of Virginia nor west of Wichita except from southern folks.
  12. I have noticed something that simply spell SCAM! So many of the ads on the internet for wonderful sounding products have very detailed info about the amazing gizmo that they are pushing but I can't find a price for it! Some of these ads are in places like Amazon (A company I enjoy doing business with) and even Harbor Freight, Home Depot, and others. What are they trying to hide?
  13. Came today from Amazon. Strange texture but it tastes alright. That said, I won't buy it again.. I says it's 8 servings per bottle. That comes out to $1.02. 2 per serving, but the killer is high fructose corn syrup. That stuff is evil. Sorry pard, but I just can't do it. Thanks for trying, though.
  14. Guaranteed accurate to 7/8" at two feet. And yet that stuff will still kill folks like us who do use precision ammo.
  15. Some day I'll learn how to do that.
  16. Do you mean the terrorists or the legislators that thought this crap up and support the new law .
  17. I have a 1959 vintage (Gen. 2 ?) 5 1/2" .45 Colt that my parents got me for my high school graduation in 1960. It was brand new gun at that time. Over the years it has been refinished once and has had a lot of internals replaced. I bought a Tyler "one piece" Ivorex grips kit for it in 1975, and custom holster made in the style of El Paso Saddlery's original Ranger, but cut lower like their Ranger fast draw style. It hangs on a El Paso money belt with some added silver conchos. I pretty much retired the gun in the '80s and got a pair of AWAs with matching holsters), but I'll keep "Old Sam" until I die. It's in a safety deposit box at my bank, but I visit it every few months.
  18. If I ever wanted pain I'd hit myself between the eyes with ball pean hammer or slam my hand in a car door. I don't like pain because it hurts!
  19. Phineas TAYLOR Barnum (Uncle Phil . Well it could be true.) said it best: there's a sucker born every minute.
  20. Why is CBS Chicago telling the story of a bird in Arizona? Oh, I know: They don't have ANY news that doesn't involve murder, mayhem, mutilation, assault, robbery, theft, terror, etc within five hundred miles of Chicago and everyone has already seen that on every channel and after awhile it isn't news anymore, it's just more boring BS.
  21. I remember a Mack delivering ice to homes in Logan, Utah as late a 1958-1960 era. The kids would follow it on hot days and the driver always gave us each a chunk of ice. We had an ice box in the basement of the first three homes we had in Logan.
