My Grandfather would always say "It's never good when your favorite restaurant has new menus."


He was a WW2 Veteran worked in Germany stringing communication lines.

Said you could smell the burning of bodies many many miles away from the camps.


Blamed his addiction to Salem cigarettes on that smell.

I'm so old I remember when Hippyshake and XDM (I forget the numbers, XDM113 or something) were well known on SGN.

Yep I remember Wunda Wunda. I'm such a dork, I still remember the Wunda Wunda song. Brakeman Bill and Crazy Donkey too.

Hell, I remember WAJim buying his first car...from Fred Flintstone. In was a Mustone 350 BC.

Never liked Wunda Wunda, or Brakeman Bill, or JP patches. Never missed Speed Racer though

Hey now.... icon_eek


That was a nice ride.


Remember the metal bombs you loaded roll pistol caps into and tossed in the air?

Now that was cool...fold 3 or 4 of those into it and it'd pop pretty good.

Playing with caps always led to a full roll on a rock and a claw hammer.

Yeah, that's awhile ago. I'm not surprised you'd remember. The Dead Sea only had the sniffles when you were a kid! :wiggle:

It was those vaccinations that killed it!!!

I watched a kid's arm sliced open because he twitched when they gave him the shot.
