    The Race Underground. Frank Sprague, a name that is all but forgotten, yet he is the man that made all modern subways possible! He invented the high powered electric motor that took the subway, from the London underground steam trains from Dante's Inferno, to the clean running trains of today...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I remember years ago, homeless people wandering around down town talking to themselves. At least they had an excuse!

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    The absolute worst are the people that just leave their cart in the middle of the isle so they can run to the last isle to get something they decided they can't live with out!

    Disappearing vintage archetecture and decorating

    From what I can see, my Queen Anne survived with most of it's original details until the last owner, she took away a lot of the inside charm! She changed all the windows, took out five doors, a lot of trim, made the butler pantry into the stairs to go to the basement, and a little pet peeve of...

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    I was 21 when I finally got a car. I used to put my feet down on the motorcycle and ride in the snow! I got the car for the usual dumb reason, a young woman! When she told me to get rid of the motorcycle, I traded the car in for a bigger motorcycle. Smartest decision of my life. Sold it five...

    A new Avro Lancaster restoration - to FLYING condition!

    Squadron Leader Leonard Cheshire became frustrated at all the losses of his squadrons Halifax, so he ordered the flame exhaust guards, extra gun turrets, and armor plating removed from the planes. The results were, far fewer losses! Why you ask? The planes were faster and could fly higher now...

    Terms Which Have Disappeared

    The question is not why you did a 360 in a Bug, the question is, who among us hasn't done at least a 180 in our Bug! :oops:

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    The Curse Of Oak Island. I feel a little better watching this stupid show! Seems far greater men than I have been captivated by the tale. One man even invested $30,000 in the early part of the last century, on the theory that Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette's crown jewels were buried their. That...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    It Started With A Kiss (1959) The real star of the movie was the Lincoln Futura Concept car. This was of course the car George Barris would turn into the most famous Bat Mobile of them all. A great performance by the nicer of the Gabor sisters. Plus a nice cameo by Henry Morgan, was there a...

    Like a friend of mine said to me once, "a Sears Allstate motorcycle and the lingerie section of the Sears catalog, what more did a 12 year old boy need?"

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    American Pickers. And here I thought crime was bad in the big city, but it has nothing on small towns in Iowa. Not only were the contents stolen from this guy, but the criminals also took the entire barn! You read that right, every last board, and it was not a small barn!

    Tales from the Royal Bedchamber. Major spoiler alert!!!!! Please do not read beyond this point unless you want your entire mental fixture on the universe, turned upside down! Alright, I warned you! Turns out, there was never a Royal bum wiper. Sorry! There was however, the Groom of the Stool...

    What was the last TV show you watched?

    Victoria Part 2. It is amazing all the changes to the world in her lifetime! Just the firearms in the military. Flintlock muskets, cap and ball rifles, breach loading rifles, repeating rifles, not to mention the Gatling gun to machine-gun. We finally see Prince Albert, and no, he wasn't in a can!

    I think I found it. It appears to be for war movies only. Thanks for looking!
