re: Best memories from station wagons and conversion vans?
Posted by Yewkindewit on 5/14/26 at 2:10 pm to CatsGoneWild
Had a ‘97 Astro van with captain’s chairs, TV, VCR, drapes, interior wood trim and a great gray with maroon trim paint job. It served its purpose for vacations, ball games, and being comfortable. It was roomy inside and great for kid.

Better than the other news channels. Repeats often so I leave it on in background to catch breaking news.

I am a veteran of 5 colonoscopies. The prep day is just a horrible day. Being so hungry, I usually head straight to a restaurant ASAP after the deed is done. :cheers:

Occasionally, yes! If the chip reader slot didn’t work the “3 times” with the strip reader would generally take.
I did have a chip pop loose and fall out of my card and onto the floor. It still worked on a tap basis on the tip of my finger. Card company sent a new one.

re: How smart is your dog?
Posted by Yewkindewit on 5/11/26 at 2:18 pm to Ramblin Wreck
My dog Zeus has basic intelligence in that he will ask me to go outside, ask to get up on the couch, tap the front door security window to let me know he wants back in, and knows how to beg for stuff. He will catch a flour tortilla like a frisbee, catch snacks tossed to him, jump when I tell him to do so, and answer a few questions for me by nodding.
Other than that, he is an empty stomach with teeth all day long.

re: Mortal Kombat 2 - sadly a big ole pile of crap
Posted by Yewkindewit on 5/8/26 at 4:20 pm to Richleau
I saw it last night and, for what it is, there is a lot to like in the action, gore, surprises, and of course the final fight in the tournament. Not to mention the smart alec antics of Johnny Cage and Kano. I’m 73 and went with a couple of my sons. :cheers:

In hIgh school the local doc would come to the locker room once a year before football season and do the walk through physicals. We basically lined up and when he got in front of you, you dropped your gym shorts, he said cough as he held your balls, and then moved on. That was it for us. I had no idea what is was all for but no one was alone with a doc. :cheers:
re: Retired folks - Making the adjustment to freedom

Start riding a bike, trail hiking, and pick up archery or some other activity that will keep you outdoors. The first 3 months for me when I retired at 63, 11 years ago, was a bit boring and I kept waking up early. After a while that subsided but retirement began to be fun. Ge5 after it.
re: In light of disclosure day, ever seen a UFO?
Posted by Yewkindewit on 5/8/26 at 2:52 pm to Columbia
My oldest brother’s wife did see one hovering over her home in Virginia back in the 70s. She drew a pic of it and my brother still has it today.
She was with a friend and she was having a sleepover at her house. They were in the front yard when the lights and entity appeared overhead.
I believe her. :cheers:

I had a terrific job where company employees worked for me on a dotted line basis. They did what I told them but I did not have to handle PR issues nor evaluations. I provided input to their performance/results. Loved it. :cheers:

re: How often do you buy chips / snacks?
Posted by Yewkindewit on 5/5/26 at 5:25 pm to Ramblin Wreck
Swore of of buying chips and snacks in 2015. However, if someone has some and I’m offered, I nibble on them. We don’t have chips and soda in the house. :cheers:
