    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    Is that like they say about lawyers defending themselves? They have a fool for a client. Tom hasn't realized he's directing/producing an idiot.

    Thrift in the Eyes of a Child

    I would say that sums it up for us as well. Absolutely. I always keep in mind that nothing is guaranteed and all can change in a heartbeat. BTDT. We have been extremely fortunate and I am thankful for it. I try to keep my expectations and gratitude in balance. When I am able to do that, my days...

    The End of the Collector Mindset

    I used to collect die cast farm toys. I had quite a few that I accumulated over 25 years or so, mostly from the dealerships I worked in plus a few older ones picked up here and there. The more valuable ones had value because the majority got played with by children and trashed. I didn't get...

    Thrift in the Eyes of a Child

    Through a combination of circumstances both self inflicted and not we went through a period of years where money was tight. Over time we have recovered to the point of being not wealthy by any means, but comfortable and able to have or do, within reason, mostly whatever we want. However, having...

    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    They won't delete anything. I quit farcebook for over 5 years. I deleted everything and supposedly shut down the account. It kept asking me in panicked language if I was sure because once deleted I couldn't get any of it back. I decided to go back on because our kids are scattering and we now...

    Tourist cabins, auto and motor courts

    My wife and I stayed in a hotel last month for an early morning christening that was too far from home to drive without leaving home well before daylight. The occupants 2 doors down were engaging in adult behavior which the female wanted to be sure all guests on her floor were aware of her...

    Chores That You Really Hate(d)

    I have worked with the public in one way or another for most of my working life. I am no longer surprised by anything that people do in public places. Repulsed and disgusted yes, shocked no.

    Tourist cabins, auto and motor courts

    I went to a business meeting at one of those minimally staffed places a while back. The vendor who was hosting the meeting told me when he arrived the conference room was a litle warmer than was comfortable. He called a toll free number and the thermostat was adjusted remotely from who knows...

    Vintage Interiors

    ^^^ That is really cool. It hasn't been that many decades since line shaft driven machine tools ruled the manufacturing world.

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    An interesting idea. I will bring it up at the next staff meeting and see where it goes.:D

    We won't discuss your impending brain shrinkage that will correspond with him entering his teens then. The good news is as he gets older you will become smarter again. That corresponds with the reality check that real life brings to us all. Enjoy the ride, it's not all bad.

    Good luck with that. Mine are grown and I'm still learning.

    Tourist cabins, auto and motor courts

    As do the motels themselves. The old Holiday Inns were a cut above. When I was young and traveled more a Holiday Inn was a splurge for a night when we didn't stay at a local place. Now they are all the same. Bland boxes that have no character. I really can't tell one from another. It used to be...

    Stories of Cardboard Luggage

    Two of my sisters had them. I thought the extra room in the case, at least on the ladies version, was for storing the colors of pompons you weren't wearing on your skate laces that night. :D I had a cardboard suitcase years ago but it disappeared somewhere along the way. I also had a genuine...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    The I don't like what you think so I hate you philosophy is ruining civil discourse on any subject. Leaving aside the lightning rods of politics and religion, no topic is seemingly safe for some folks to get hateful about. Too many people demand that their world be an echo chamber. It makes me...

    Vintage neon signs

    Stinker is a western US chain from Idaho. They used to be tiny little gas stops but are convenience stores now. There's a bunch of them in their market area.
