Back to dangerous toys . . .
A friend of mine still has the Fourth of July "Big Bang" cannon he got as a kid and likes to fire it off whenever possible. The thing is made of steel, and knowing his penchant for blowing things up I can only imagine some of the things that went on in his back...
Hold on to your hat, Linc. My brother is getting married a year from this October 4th. . . . At Disneyland! (His fiancee nixed the Star Wars-themed wedding.)

Not as toxic as some of the diseases fleas have been known to carry.
But that's why you leave for a while and then vacuum it up. It gives the powder time to do its job, and then you suck the fleas and the powder up.

For that third cat, use the same $10.00 a dose squeeze-onto-the-back-of-the-cat's-neck type you already have, but apply it after your daughter goes to bed. Apply it under the fur and don't brush it until morning. It'll be dry by then.
Here's what I did when I had carpet: I'd take the cats to...
So can an adult. lol As proof, I warn that you don't let your kids read Dave Barry's account of firing a potato gun from the roof of The Miami Herald. Read about it here. I laugh like a little girl every time I read it. (Don't forget to hide the screen from the children while you read.)

Oh! Wish I'd seen those! I was busily watching Dirty Jobs.
Last movie I watched: The Villain, late last night. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Ann-Margaret and Kirk Douglas. Such a live-action cartoon! :D

Licorice! Any form of black licorice! (Okay, Red Vines, too!) I even liked those thin, dark, lightly-powdered licorice throat lozenges my mother gave me when I had a sore throat. . . . Uh, still like them.

Necco Wafers from Hell.
What other candy do I like? . . ...

You just reminded me of the time my younger brother and I built the ultimate slingshot/crossbow. Using a 2X4 of about two feet, a couple strong rubber bands and a trigger mechanism that I can't recall, we shot a standard steel-tipped/green-plastic-finned dart some thirty yards...
It's always a treat to find that one missing piece of the antique puzzle. :)
Congratulations, Miss Neecerie. Great find!

I occasionally wonder the same, which is probably part of why I and my family are incurable packrats. On the other hand, items made in the past were made in much lower numbers and higher quality than most everything made today, so its future value will probably be...
Add a Glossary to that Sticky.
YES! We would very much appreciate it. :)
You Mad Hatters know everything, and we admire you for that, but those of us who are, shall I say, barely flipping our lids want to know what's what. For instance, a glossary filled with specific images of, or...
Yeah. Now ask me if I care.
lol <~~~ There's your answer.
Mountain Dew has enough sugar to wake the dead, enough caffiene to perk 'em up and plenty preservatives to keep 'em going. :D

If you have the October issue of Hemmings Classic Car, there's a column by Patrick Foster about Packard and how they may have survived had they merged with Nash, rather than Studebaker.

I'll drink just about anything with my meals, but rarely anything with alcohol. (But, I do like a Mike's Hard Lemonade or Limeade on a hot afternoon.) I don't like straight alcohol drinks, too rough on the throat, and wine - especially red wine - makes me sweat and the muscles in my arms, chest...
A Small Whopper of a Fish Tail.
While sailing on the deep blue sea
What happened there, you won't believe.
The year was forty, and a seven
And on the sea, to me, is heaven.
The sun was warm, the breeze was cool
And off the bow, a dolphin school.
