    LOL .......  lips, noses and bum holes 100% beef :) 

    I stopped eating Vienna sausages about sixty years ago after I read the ingredients listed on the label.

     

    I also stopped reading labels about that time.

    Had them here in various shapes, some sort of similar to coke bottles which are the ones I recall best.  There used to be penny candy counters in little neighborhood stores stocked with all manner of sweets.

    CANDY CIGARETTES....in a mostly Mormon community.   Evil, evil, evil!  :o  <_<

    They miss an awful lot of the of the good fun we had.  The '50's may have been the best of times for kids.

    Yeah, we used to dress up like cowboys and frontier soldiers, shoot guns and have contests where we shot targets.....kind like now only my knees hurt more and  ammo is a lot more expensive than BBs.

    Is this another example of "Australians spell funny"?

     

    "Did ya car brake down"

     

    The word is break - it means "is no longer working". It's generally a verb.

     

    Brake, on the other hand, is generally a noun, referring to something that slows you down.

     

    Your lawn mower can break - it no longer works. You can take a coffee break - you are not working.

     

    A dog runs out in front of your car and you step on the brake. It slows you down.

     

    Do y'all not have those two separate and distinct words that sound the same?

     

     

    No.  Know.  Gno. Huh uh.

    I remember so many disabled kids (and adults) who had been affected by polio (how quickly have we forgotten about polio) truly hard to believe that these things were once in every supermarket and on every chemist shop and corner shop counter. I know we sometimes pine for the old days, but some things are better rightfully gone.
