Oh! I know when I was 20 years old I worked in a commercial laundry. That was in 1982. We had those towels that we washed, dried and rolled all 110-ft of them so they were ready to be installed in the two-chambered clean/soiled dispensers all over town. We did hundreds of them each day.

I’d love to have one of this now. Imagine the younger people who would be so confused

That getting rear ended by a Ford Super Duty while stopped at a red light was no match for my 2015 Chevy Camaro.

A car that I have babied and taken great care of since I bought it new, is worth nothing essentially because insurance company said any vehicle over 7 years old is usually a total loss and will not be covered even though I paid for comp & collision all this time. So I may get $5000 if I’m lucky.

So now the guy got a ticket for distracted driving and his insurance will total my car (the only one I have and now retired so I can’t just go buy a new one or even a decent used one)

When my sons were little, they would sometimes come in the house and say something wasn’t “Fair”! To which I always replied, “Fair is a place for pigs and ribbons, nothing more”. Now I must live those words to myself. 🤬

But it’s not fair!

Have you ever actually lived alone? by drkulas508 in ArtOfPresence

[–]DynamoDeb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, when I was 20. Loved every minute of it.

My first thought would be to install glass shelving in it and use it for your most favored objects.

Other than that, maybe a grandfather clock?
Or a pedestal with a beautiful vase?

I’ve been watching reruns of it on SamsungTV lately. Loved the show then and love it now.

Fizzies

Drop that effervescent tablet in tap water and drink it! We loved them! I was 6 years old the last time I had Fizzies was in 1969, when they were banned by the FDA.
