    Clean Jokes

    That is Daddy and Peaches Browning. She was his 16 year old child bride, he was past 50. He was also bats$#t crazy. She also had a mother who appears to have been as crazy as Daddy was. The whole deal was a great scandal at the time.

    What Was The Last Radio Program You Heard?

    I finally got a chance to listen to the Strand broadcast from start to finish. Excellent job by all involved. I'm looking forward to the next one.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    The only place I still get paper sacks is at our local locker plant. They are poor enough as a sack, but then they have the audacity to put the little loop handles on them made of the same poor material. I only made the mistake of picking one up by the handles once.

    Out Your Back Door

    It's a long term process. When we bought our current home it had been owned by the same family for 60 years. The old folks hadn't been able to keep up with it for some time. I told my wife that it would take us 5-10 years to get it reasonably close to where we wanted it to be. I don't think that...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I believe that is what lives currently in the corner of our living room and is shuffled around to different locations depending on the season. It belonged to my late mother in law and was inherited by my wife. Her mom has been gone for well over 20 years and the tree was in her possession for a...

    Today in History

    Not bad for a guy that not many years before was trying to build a car after work in his coal shed.

    Other than pictures of my grandkids and a few other things the majority of what I see on farcebook seems odd to me. o_O

    Old gas stations

    My mother insisted on mowing her own yard until she just couldn't do it anymore. Nobody else could do it properly. She was a fairly small woman and sometimes had trouble getting her mower to start. She would threaten it with "you hateful SOB, either start or I will throw you in the scrap pile."...

    Feet Up! The Work Boot Thread

    I generally try to avoid Chinese goods on general principles. It isn't so much that they are from China as it is that I try not to support any company who wants me to pay the same or a higher price for a product today that I paid a year or two ago when it was made here by someone making a living...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    My paternal grandparents were hill people who were not poor, but money was not available for wasting. My grandfather would pick out Christmas trees a few years in advance of the year of use. When he decided that it was time he would dig up the tree and transplant it into a large tub. After it...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Hence the reason for right to farm laws here in the U.S. The nuisance lawsuits got completely out of control brought by people moving out into the hinterlands and being outraged by the noise, dust or sights and sounds coming from nearby farms that had been there for generations before the...

    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    Living out in the sticks I was deprived of Super Dave and shows like Bizarre until college. I wasted many hours watching to make up for lost time.

    Evil may be subjective and hard to define but like Justice Stewart, we know it when we see it.

    Vintage roadside

    I have seen pictures of that same '58 wagon a couple of other places too. I have about decided somebody's box of old pictures got uploaded to the internet. Which is fine, I like the car a lot.
