  1. yeah we somehow rented about 20 motel rooms at something like a Ramada Inn and had trash cans of beer in parking lot. Got home about 6am
  2. Silent Coup was an interesting book/theory. The real surprise was how bad the burglars were. IIRC they were caught becuase they taped over the door lock. Frank Wills, the guard, saw it and removed the tape. They came back and did it again so when he saw it a second time he called the cops. First - if you need to tape a door like during burglary then WTH. Second - you find the tape missing and decide to continue. And third - if IIRC they didn't tape the lock on the edge but something instead ran the tape horizontally from back to front. All that was missing was a neon sign saying 'Bad guys this way"
  3. Anyone else concerend about the north and south poles swapping ends?
  4. People who use my seatback as a pull up bar to get in and out of their seat.... If you can't get into a seat without hanging your entire body off of mine than start working out
  5. Rogers is just going to kill the open market... Guessing 32-35 million plus per year
  6. Should have hit the exit as soon as he saw the lighter....
  7. we need some more details on this keg launch
  8. Ours were white - Mom still has them as a period correct bookcase item... The Huntsville library will take any books from an estate but not these.
  9. Dominos thin crust??? I got one of those and found out you have to ask for a traditional cut. Hate it when people decide to change the accepted rules and don't ask if you agree. Had some Einstein chef at a Hilton Garden decide I wanted a batch of wheat germ in my pancakes. Um no and next time you want to do something outrageously strange - ask me first...
  10. Research Nixon - especially the last days before a form of donation reporting became required. IIRC they had safes full of cash just lying around. Separate from that they had criminals operating break ins from offices in the White House
  11. I think I mentioned this on Shaggy a few years ago but back in the late 80's I was a groomsman in a wedding in mid November. It was a "mixed" marriage - he went to Auburn and she went to Alabama. They managed to mess up everyone's Saturday with a 5:00 wedding. The late afternoon game was Alabama/Notre Dame and the early evening game was Auburn/Georgia. Pretty much guaranteed neither fan base was going to watch their game. I did see several folks with the old fashioned transistor radio and earpiece in the church and others were whispering for them to tell the score of the game.
  12. Think I knew more than my Fortran professor - which wasn't saying much.. He also demanded we turn in punch cards but never realized that I was using TSO and then the PUNCH command. So much easier to correct a mistake and never worried about dropping the program deck. Still have a couple thousand unused punched cards - but not from them. Before retiring from IBM I ordered a couple of boxes of them. I used them all the time for notes instead of postit notes so I keep using them.
  13. On the 30 for 30 for Bo one of the people they interviewed said - Bo only had one play in that game because to give him two plays would be totally unfair...
  14. Don't snitches get some percentage? Just asking....
  15. Is there something I am missing here. Using Firefox and the new theme has some sort of picture of what seems to be clouds as a background but the heading and then the box forthe topic take up 90% of the screen, I have a one inch section htat shows the background.
  16. Well Cruz or his campaign has no clue about robo calling. Got one yesterday except I moved back to Alabama last year and the phone does not have an Austin area code anymore. No idea how they decided I could be a targeted voter.
  17. The original Gone in 60 Seconds.... It was awesome at drive ins. No guns though
  18. We had one that was serious when they posted the missing dog answered to the name of "Treats"... That ought to narrow it down.
  19. Loved him as Coach Bowerman in Pre....
  20. Yep it is worth the time to go to. Still have a couple of mid 80's HP 41 calculators and just used one this morning
  21. Much worse than a Rigid tool calendar....
  22. I think they had to send them in. No picture but at one time merchants had a phone book sized list of stolen cards and were supposed to check any card purchase against the list before allowing them to charge.
  23. Can't see them either
  24. Think they are illegal now but in the 80's a girl I knew had a German Shepard/Wolf breed. It was not an accident but deliberately bred that way. Very friendly but I remember it having a rear end that looked like it took steroids.
  25. IIRC is was about ten years after the divorce
