They enacted that law to get rid of the Mexicans in Texas who would work for pennys during the great depression from what I hear .It didn't work .
Mark my word they will legalize it in some form or another during my lifetime .
Prohibition didn't work just made some people rich .All these laws...
It seems there's been a rash of them lately .Just a few weeks ago I paid my final respects to a guy I grew up with .While there I met another old friends ex wife who informed he wasn't doing so well .This afternoon I get to pay my final respects to him .
It just almost seems like a twinking of...
I wasn't real close to him ,in addition to knowing him his son and my son were in the same class in school .
He was about five years older than me but his book describes in part kind of how I grew up in the industrial midwest .The tough old farts a young kid had to deal with that truth be known...
I feel it note worthy to remember Jerry Clum of whom I knew .He passed away after a long bout with melanoma but lived 10 years longer than he was expected to .
He was a tough old coot I knew from my teenage years but had a heart the size of Texas .
Before he passed in his final days he had an...
August 20 Phyllis Diller passed .Oh how she made me laugh with some of her BS .
She was born and raised in Lima Ohio .My ex and now deceased MIL knew her well in the early days before she made living with her humor .
It's a matter of "designation " The Tiger as it were was a model in the Sunbeam "alpine series " Evidently the type one had in fact the little Ford 260 while the later type 2 used the 289 . When Crysler acquired Sunbeam the 272 cubic inch V8 engine they produced would not fit in the engine...
I just had a thought .I didn't really find out but with the EAB thing they might have snatched the standing dead ash trees while they were still fit for lumber .
I never really paid much attention when I trompted those hills but ash makes up a large number of the hardwoods in this state .There...
It's pretty much inevitable when people reach that age they will pass .Death is just a fact of life .You hate to see them go but so it does and will for all of us come the appointed time .
The timber mainly white oak . Cherry on occasion or sugar maple depending on what they are looking for at...
Buried another uncle yesterday .Uncle Chuck passed at 86 after a long bout of Parkinsons .My dads sisters husband .
He's the guy that had over 800 acres of tall timber in central Ohio .Gone but not forgotten .Myself ,4 grandsons and one granddaugher were the pallbearers .
I did notice on the...
Freedom of the press is the most misused and abused rights of this country .They can create all kind of sensationalisms knowing full well it's a pack of lies .Then if the cheese gets binding publish a tiny little retraction and all is forgiven .Chit by then the damage is already done .:what:
Well they can say what they want to about some of those salty old farts but they did report the news .
Unlike the sensationalism of the likes of Nancy Grace ,Jane Valez Mitchel or the biased BS of Rush Limbaugh .There is no news today just the opinions of fat asses like Rush it seems .
Ms Houston had a beautiful signing voice .Here rendition of "I will always love you " was better than Dolly Partons' who wrote the song .In fact Ms Parton even stated that as fact .
Her role in "The body guard " was fantastic .So talented and yet so troubled in life . It's a shame but only one...
Yes Ms Russel was indeed the spokes woman for the 18 hour bra .Because of what nature endowed her with plus the fact by that time she was an older mature woman and not the pin up of the 40's she did rather nicely in that role .
I found the commercials were rather cute .She would say "let me...
Jane Russel passed on .She was the pin up girl for the GI's during WW 2 and the infatuation of Howard Hughes .
The old gal was noted for her ampleness of bosum which Howard Hughes supposedly designed a special undergarment to enhance what nature had bestowed upon her although it really wasn't...
The old man,Joe was the one that built the empire on bootleg booze during that social experiment which didn't work .Teddy was the last of the old guard .
I can't comment on weather he was a hero or a zero but he was a whoredog as were most if not all and a bull chit artist .
