    Again. A simpler and more genteel time. Today that dwelling would be $4.6 million. Turds and needles thrown in for free.

    Despite that, the Tootsie Rolls which are stored in meat lockers still attract burglars, in that very town

    There’s a great YouTube video on San Francisco in 1955. And, another in 1962. Holy Cow. Talk about an absolute swirl down the toilet. It’s really sad that we just accept the mediocrity out there as a sign of the times. If you object, or raise any concerns you’re apparently not woke, or stylish. At the risk of sounding like an ole Fart, I really do think we have lived through the best of times. I worry about the young Orthmann boys, and the like, and nieces and nephews and what we’re leaving them. End of Sunday sermon.

    I bailed out when I could. But, it seems to be catching up, over here.
    Yeah, it looks like the Orthmann boys might end up having to get together with other boys and girls of their generation and set up their own country within a country

    They may have to.
    Fortunately we live in an area that is somewhat separated from the major centers of society that are swirling the drain, but we aren't completely isolated from it either.

    Only one import. Rest of the vehicles are domestic. I bet it's almost completely flipped today.

    The chrome lugnuts and dustcaps really stand out, against the gloss black wheels and fat whitewalls. We should teach that boy not to sit on paint finishes, though
