  1. My wife and I made reservations the day of last May for our anniversary. I'm glad we did, it was pretty busy.
  2. Oh yeah! Lima Time!
  3. Hobby-crafted arrowhead (left) beside genuine arrowhead (right). Hobby-crafted arrowheads are often meant to show the creator’s skill, making the objects precise. Old arrowheads, though, are often dull. (Photo by Allyson White.) I’m not saying it isn’t authentic but there are lots of flint knappers out there doing really fine work. I would have an expert verify it. It’s outstanding in any event.
  4. Nice answer, Seattle.
  5. I'm pretty sure I played hand-me-downs until 1962 or so. I don't remember any of the names or if they even had any. I started catching in 1967 and was given a Yogi Berra catchers mitt. I'm wondering if I could have even purchased a Clemente or Mays glove in Wichita in 1962. I do remember that Mantle, ugh, was about all you could find at the time.
  6. Clemente and Mays were my favorite ballplayers. This one stung at the time.
  7. There will be a cooking show broadcast from that kitchen any minute now.
  8. This is correct. From Mulvane, the big casino south of Wichita on the turnpike. He liked Kentucky Deluxe. He really liked KD.
  9. I remember when we had the PF thread on the shag. You couldn't criticize RW without summoning his choir. That choir got a lot smaller with the move to Surly and now they are silent. Man has proven himself to be a complete cunt.
  10. Getting old rocks, eh? I’ll be 73 next week and this is how I spent the weekend with my wife. We bought a limestone rock that was pulled out of a local Catholic cemetery. It had been one of many used to line roadways there. I needed a stone to mount my Mother’s sundial. We had it on a wooden fence post for years but it had decayed. Yesterday I dug a hole and we used a rock bar to jimmy it off of my trailer and set it in that hole. We used pipe clamps to grab it and pivot it in the hole to point north and south. This morning , we mixed 4 bags of quikrete and secured it. We are both pretty tired tonight but next weekend we are going to build a low retaining wall around it and mulch it all to match the Peony bed behind it. At times it sucks getting old but not always. ETA: I’m not sure how I posted the top pic twice. I must be getting old.
  11. There are several schools that run those systems but Conway has been single wing for years with a lot of success. They ended our State dreams several times over the years.
  12. Do your nephews play for or against Conway Springs?
  13. I also use arose for Wordle but I use Unity and then arose for quordle and Octordle. I can't explain why I don't use unity for Wordle, maybe it already hit once.
  14. In fairness, it was built to transport 787 parts, so I can see how he got there.
  15. Wordle 1,527 4/6* ⬜🟨🟩🟨🟩 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩⬜🟩🟩🟩 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
