I just had the exact flooring on the far left replaced in one of my unused bathrooms 3 weeks ago. It still looked okay to me, my wife had been nagging about for years.

Pickle loaf and olive loaf were staples in Grandma’s refrigerator, along with bologna and hoop cheese.

We could get firecrackers at the back door of the Chink’s laundry. But I didn’t know you weren’t supposed to call them chinks to their face. So when my mother told me to go to the chinks laundry to pick up the shirts I didn’t know which cleaner she meant so I asked them if this was the chinks laundry. They chased me out.

Kinda like how growing up I didn’t know that it was bad to call the Indian doctor the gook Dr. Everyone called him the gook doctor, so…

My wife and I are still in possession of my Father-in-Laws marbles, and our kids will probably wonder why we kept them when we’re gone.

When I was 13 in 1967 we used to take the bullets out of .22 rounds, stick the cartridge in a bar of soap and make soap bullets. Then we would play war games and shoot each other with our .22 rifles. Stung like hell when you got hit.

Born in the late-’40s, the great thing about growing up in the ’50s and ’60s was that The United States Of America was a great Nation … still a Sovereign Nation (i.e., it pretty well kept its borders closed to illegals) … and we felt that the future was positive and worthwhile.

Then, in the mid-’60s — the troublemakers — the career malcontents — took control of things … Jerry Rubin, Abbie Hoffman, Bill Ayers and many more … and all they wanted to do was destroy everything that they didn’t like.

(((They))) flexed their muscles and destroyed our Nation in the process — as was intended … as has always been intended …

The first three Angels were the best, though Cheryl made a pretty good replacement. Amazing that Kate Jackson thought that she was the sexy one. LOL

And all I ever remember about Suzie Chapstick was how unbelievably huge and visible her gums were. I’d never seen anyone with that much exposed gum before…certainly not in a commercial.

I always considered Jaclyn to be the beautiful one, Farrah the sexy one and Kate the comfortable one. She was the one you would be proud to take home to meet Mom.
