Thanks Tom! I almost quit when you stopped posting, glad you're back! Of course, you never have to worry about me looking down on you, since I am only 5'10" and would need a big ladder to do that! :D
You are old enough to remember when the great clerks would count your change back. You would hand them a $20 for say a $7.75 item, and they would say, "8 and 9 and 10 and 10 is 20." Meaning, you got $12.25 in change. It always seemed like they were smarter then me, unlike today!
I agree! Just as Motown and other American song makers were hitting their stride, the British Invasion came along. Here, is one of my favorite songs from the end of that era. It is so much better then the Moody Blues version that came out at the same time...
I still don't get were you got the idea that we were all raised by Benjamin Spock? I can assure you, non of his books were in any of the neighborhoods I lived in during the 50s-70s. Working class families had better things to spend their money on. When I first heard of Spock's writings in the...
I wish I knew why he was banned? I can't imagine what ever was said, was any stronger then the debates Jame's and I had! People need to grow some rhinoceros hide, and reinstate James! I know we have at least three votes in favor already!
It's not just Hippies, the new thing in the biker world is to hug, and these guys are from the extreme opposite end of the political spectrum from Hippies! I have been riding since the 60s, never hugged any guys, and I don't like it! Complete stranger grabbing me, no thanks.
Now this is a Safari vehicle! It is less then a mile from my house. The rational side of my brain says, "no way, no how!" The irrational side says, "ohhh yaaaa!" Luckily, my pocket book is siding with the rational side.
You all do know that it was the WWII generation that was in charge through the 60s? And for the U.S. WWII Veterans were President from 1953- 88! The WWII generation were also the parents of all us Baby Boomers, go figure and they did not spare the rod, and second place was just the first looser...
That reminds me of the lady who a few years back, showed up for jury duty wearing a Star Fleet uniform. The judge was mad, but she pointed out, she always dressed like that! Can't remember if she was dismissed or not?
I have stupid flippers always wanting to buy my Victorian house for penny's on the dollar. I did get the last laugh recently. I ran into one of them at an open house, I asked how much that house was, then I said what mine would be worth with a little work, he agreed. Then I told him how much I...
Even worse Lizzie, is coming out of the store and seeing some guy sitting on one of my motorcycles! I didn't give them permission. It is especially irksome, when they sit on my Sportster Cafe, it has a very sensitive kickstand, which retracts very easily, so potentially, the guy goes to lean it...
