Ask me about my cat...
Themed glassware when you filled your tank.
Free bullet holes when you filled the escort with a tank full of three star.
They also had small tiger boxing gloves to hang from rear view mirror. I have two sets of them. They were in my father’s stuff when he passed.

Half genius, half dumazz whackjob foole

Found a nice video. I love the part at about 20:05 when the old farmer talks about the kids helping with loading the haymow:
Waxing nostalgic on a nice day in the backyard with the dog in early September.

I used to order VW parts from them. They were inexpensive and likely from companies dumping their slow moving stock. I remember when I first began thumbing through their catalogues they were still carrying record players that mounted inside the glove compartment. Couldn't imagine playing one while driving.

Sir Issac Newton tells us why
An apple falls down from the sky;
And from this fact it's very plain
All other objects do the same.
A brick, a bolt, a bar, a cup,
Invariably fall down not up.
And every common working tool
Is governed by the self-same rule.
If at work you drop a spanner
It travels in a downward manner;
A fifth of accidents or more
Illustrate old Newtons law.
But one thing he forgot to add;
The damage won't be half as bad
If you are wearing special clothes,
Especially on your head and toes.
So best foot forward and take care
About the kind of shoes you wear;
It's better to be sure than dead,
So get a hat and keep your head.
Don't think to go without is brave;
The affects of gravity can be grave.
Let´s see how many here go: "Oh my word"

A weekend moment of calm; photo and music video . . . calming reminiscence.
While my age was still in single digits, I remember the horizontal stripped t-shirts that nearly all us boys wore.

And who had one of those small "weather house" on the wall, at home ?
Fair weather, the kids where out to play.
Rainy weather, the witch was out.

I remember how concerned I was about giving up the yellow pages ad.
Business continued as usual.
Directional signals were an accessory on cars. I would stand on the front seat when riding the car, and the dash was hard steel. My first car didn't have hydraulic brakes. Vacuum wipers that wouldn't wipe going up hill.
