    Ringling Brothers Circus is Closing.

    I'm glad I stopped to take a couple of photos last year! Sad that I will never see this sight again.

    You know you are getting old when:

    In India, they have a telephone line that is over 100 years old and still going. Can't find any thing on the oldest line in the USA. I suspect, it is not as old as we think! The reason is, cities got the first lines and most cities are going through major upgrades as Inkstainedwretch mentioned...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Those stupid zip openers on carboard box's of food, or what ever the official name is. Rarely do they open half way before they tear off in your hand! Most of the time, I am lucky to get the box a quarter of the way open.

    Show us your vintage home!

    Well bad news today, my boiler refused to stay lit. I had the same company that got it working two years ago to come out. He did get it running, but said it will not last! Besides the burner needing replace, and the safety flame shutoff, there is also a lot of rust showing up on the boiler. If...

    Re-branding Pearl Harbor anniversary for a new generation

    Yet the British never give credit to General Molinié and his mostly North African troops completely cut off, held Erwin Rommel's Ghost division up for a vital four days, saving an estimated 100,000 allied troops at Dunkirk. And still later, French and Scottish troops under the command of the...

    How do you like the jacket? I almost pulled the trigger on one when they were on sale.

    Show us your vintage home!

    This is a really sad photo of my house taken in 1992. It was from the sales flyer from the owner before the last. If you look at the upstairs windows, they are 16 over 1 double hung windows. And as if that is not unusual enough, the lower pains on all the windows was stained glass! All gone now...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    The Invisible Boy (1957) Terrible B movie, but it had as a costar, one of the most beloved caricatures in Sci-Fi movies, Robby The Robot!

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Tommy Allsup, One of Buddy Holly's Crickets. Legend has it, he lost the coin toss to Ritchie Valens Febuary 3, 1959 in Clear Water, Iowa. Though Dion DiMucci, of Dion And The Belmonts claims he won the coin toss, but balked at the exorbitant charge of $36.00 for the flight! Either way, history...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    The Real Mad Men Of Advertising. I am so glad I had to take that course on commercial propaganda in high school! Looking around my house, I am not very brand loyal.

    It would be interesting to see if we would elect a bald man, with a beard, who was never married and had no kids?

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    All the hair transplant experts seem to agree, it's the product of a bad hair plug operation in the late 70s! So, when he says it's real, and his hair, he is telling the truth, but what a comb-over. Round and round it goes, where it stops nobody knows!

    You know you are getting old when:

    I was standing in line at UPS when an attractive blonde in front of me cracked a good joke, "lunch hour and only one clerk, not like they would expect a crowd!" I laughed, then I notices her blue jacket and the silver star on each shoulder, I thought good for her. This evening I had to laugh, if...
