The USAF put us in the Holiday inn downtown overnight. I took a long "Hollywood shower" and went down to the bar and had a cold Rainer draft. Wow. timing and circumstance. What a beer.

What do they, the physicians, recommend NOW? INJECTIONS in front of the brain of toxic deadly botulism..... That keeps those wrinkles on the forehead from getting deeper since it paralyzes the external nerves...maybe the ones just on the other side of the skull too . Last edited by Happy_Camper; 08/22/20.

One I have framed says, "Be as gay as gay Paree." It has a date in the early 1930's. My swishy next door neighbor wanted to buy it so as I had two, I said make me an offer. He wrote a check for $100 on the spot. Some of the adds were for tooth powder, remember that stuff? A few for some laxative that AFAIK no longer exists. I probably have 30 or 40 of those things.

I wonder if they still sell it? Stupidity has its way, while its cousin, evil, runs rampant.

A Chinese is a China person, or chinaman; strangely not considered politically correct here these days. Paul Stupidity has its way, while its cousin, evil, runs rampant.
