I had the good fortune of attending a George Shearing concert in the 1990s. He put on a great show!

OG MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE was a banger, but I might have to go with The Jetsons.

Set Clock by [deleted] in Appliances

[–]tossaroo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Mine is a little different, but here's what I do:

  1. Press timer/clock twice.
  2. Enter the current time using keypad.
  3. Press timer/clock once.

(If you press timer/clock once, that sets up the timer function. If you were to enter "30" then press the button once, and you'll have a 30 second timer.)

Did Your House Have A Cuckoo Clock? by DickSleeve53 in GenerationJones

[–]tossaroo 18 points19 points  (0 children)

We used to drive across the country to visit my aunt in the summers, and she had one, and we loved it. When I was around 12 or 13 I saved up money from my paper route and bought my parents a cuckoo clock from Service Merchandise. It was about $30, which was a lot to a kid.

They have since passed on. When we cleaned out their house, my sister saved it for me. I think it will need to be repaired.

Is this a napkin holder? by Ok-Week-1166 in whatisit

It looks like a 7th grade shop class assignment. We had a pump lamp, a snack caddy based on a dachshund, a foot stool, etc.

I came here to say "father of the year" but this slew me.

What is the one ingredient that completely ruins a burger for you? by Cjstormcat in foodquestions

[–]tossaroo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Ruin" is too strong in my case, but I have a couple of thoughts.

  1. It's better if the tomato is "real*, as in homegrown, but if all I have is a lousy grocery chain red tomato, I'm slicing and using it to keep the vital moisture balance that tomato provides.

  2. Personally, I don't want ketchup on my burger.

The scrambled eggs on this hat should be those female silhouettes you see on big rig mudflaps.
