    The New Am I The Only One Thread

    Classic rock (which I used to love back in the 80's/90's) has become so boring. Every group or singer has been reduced to three songs. When they used to have listeners call in requests, it got so predictable "Yeah, I wanna hear some Zeppelin. Play 'Stairway!!!!!!'" Stairway to Heaven used to be...

    I had a co-worker who was paranoid, and I mentioned it to her. "Sherry, you're really paranoid". "WHO TOLD YOU THAT?????!!!" 8)

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    Cheerios (the plain ones) are pretty decent health wise. After my heart surgery, breakfast options were pretty slim. When I was up to having solid food, you could choose Rice Krispies, Cheerios, or Raisin Bran. Heart-friendly. Back in the 70's, Tony the Tiger (shill for Frosted Flakes) had a...

    It probably still is the healthiest for you too. But when I was seven, the idea of eating grown-up cereal that's good for you was like culture shock. Well, here I am and there you are.

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    It's funny how the cereal aisle is almost divided in half. One side is the fiber-laden healthy stuff, the other side is the sugary mascot-driven stuff little kids have meltdowns over if parents don't buy it. I grew up on sugary stuff. Anything frosted or with marshmallows, I'm in. Plus the big...

    The new What Made You Smile Today thread

    Welcome to my world. Once in a blue moon I still enjoy Lucky Charms or Frosted Flakes, I can't eat this stuff every day. If I do eat cereal at all, Rice Krispies are good, Mini-Wheats, Cracklin' Oat Bran are my go-to's. As the decades pile on, you'll become a little more conscious of what you...

    The Saddest thing that reminds you that you're old...

    You'll see that a lot. At my 10 year reunion (the only one I ever attended) it seemed 80% of the people there were married and banging out kids. This was 1996. It took me to 2000 to get married. But I was in no rush. All in good time. One classmate had a kid right after graduation, and became a...

The whole purpose after graduating high school is to move on to the next phase of your life. Here are your options: College. Military. Joining the family business. Joining the...

    Van Dyke brown. Cadmium yellow. Phthalo blue. Sap green. Alazarin crimson. Titanium white. Yellow ochre. Sometimes Prussian blue. All he needed to create a masterpiece in 22 minutes.

    The Bob Ross Thread

    Bob can put you into a trance at the drop of a dime. The one thing that always got me, he'd spend a good deal of time making all the happy little clouds, reflections of the lake, foggy mountains in the background, , looks so peaceful. Then dip his biggest brush in the Van Dyke brown and say...

    Three weeks of therapy down, three more to go. Sometimes it's hard to see results right away, but my leg is getting stronger with each visit. I even managed to take a few steps without my cane. A short time ago, that would've been impossible. in the beginning therapy was like Boot Camp. They...

    When you need to rant...

    That's because parents are forbidden to discipline their kids anymore. Growing up in the 70's, my sister, brother, and me, if we acted up in public, guaranteed we would get smacked. Disrespecting your parents, talking back, hitting them, no way, no how. Our dad wouldn't stand for that. Today...

    Yes, that's him! LOL. How does anybody come up with this stuff? I'd love to see the math involved behind his logic. I do have a personal emotional stake in this clip. When it first aired around 1974? 75? That kid was the spitting image of me. Buck-tooth dweeb with nerdy glasses. It's a surreal...

    When you need to rant...

    Oh, comments for Sesame videos? Where do you want to start? My current favorite, there was a clip from the 70's about a kid who gets four ice cream cones from the ice cream man. He can barely hold them, they're melting, so he yells "Help!" Some kids help him by taking his ice cream, leaving him...

    None Like it Hot: The "I Hate the Heat" Club

    You know what's neat? I met Carroll on three different occasions, and he always wears something with a little green in it. Even if it's hot out, he'll still have his green suede jacket with him.
