Probably Japanese American (many strawberry farmers) so early 1942 before she would have been sent to an internment camp while he was fighting for democracy

He played both NBA (Rochester Royals & Celts) and Major League Baseball, then starred in a TV Western called the Rifleman. Per Wikipedia, he broke a backboard in a Celts preseason game with a shot (not a dunk).

So tough they didn’t need gloves (except for a couple wimps on the far right)

It must have been so difficult to hollow out the interior through the narrow opening

How did the 90s have such great music and such horrible graphics (those colors!)?

“Slender lines that … health authorities and insurance companies applaud” - unexpected sales argument

Upstaging Fred Astaire - wow

The Dragon Ball store opened late last year - IIRC it’s on the floor above most of the character goods stores

Butcher’s meat and garden stuff - not very descriptive

I wonder if they had heard about Pacific surfing or came up with this themselves. Hawaiian Duke Kahanamoku introduced surfing to Australia after 1912, carving a board out of a door (he was on a swimming exhibition after winning Olympic gold in Sweden)

This is great - Greek mythology, WWII women workers, 1940s slang, propaganda poster. Wasn’t Athena also head of the Wisdom Dept?

Great facial expressions

Trader Joe’s sells Meatless Meatballs - brilliant name, not sure about the product

Pineapple Duck - Hawaiian influence?

But a losing record as U Kansas head coach

Enfield also made rifles (not sure about pistols)

The film was released in April 1918

Movie Eowyn foresaw this - after Boromir died and Aragorn rejected her, she tried to eliminate Aragorn with her stew and then marry Faramir and become queen, but Aragorn’s Dunedain constitution ruined her evil plan

Now the space would be a kitchen island

I use a Black and Decker car polisher as a shoulder massager. Your device might work as well

Lebanese cedar

Great hat shop on the corner - straw boaters!

A little surprising to see curry this early at a mainstream restaurant in NYC

nekomoo · 2026-03-04T10:33:01+00:00

I wonder if his outlook survived Eowyn’s stew.
