When baseball card were not enough there was MATTEL with the VROOM engine for your bicycle. Now be honest, who had one of these?

One day I got a bit over enthusiastic and clipped an entire deck of playing cards on my bicycle, basically using up all of mom's clothes pins. Sounded awesome, but bike would hardly move.

Clara Peller got a Gold Clio award for that one, and it was well-earned, too.

This will work for 2023, but next year you'll need to have 84 beers, and 85 in 2025. It's not magic, just math.
How it works: Take the current year (23) minus your age and add 100 to get the year you were born. That's 123 - your age for this year. Next year will be 124 - your age, etc. Last edited by dscabra; 12-18-2023 at 04:50 PM.. |

After 83 beers either nothing will work or anything you try will work. For Deano it was probably the latter.

...when you have a six-month checkup with a retina specialist about your age-related macular degeneration. But... good news! No further degeneration noted; the doctor says in some cases the condition stays relatively stable and I may be one of those cases.

83 beers and Dean Martin made me think of this. You know you’re old if you don’t think this guy is politically incorrect. And if you know who all these celebrities are!!

^ Foster Brooks, Don Rickles, Dean Martin, Rich Little, Lorne Greene, Joey Bishop, Jack Klugman, Dan Rowan, Dick Martin, Telly Savalas, Cliff Robertson, and I think I missed one.
PS - I didn't cheat. Pretty good memory for an old guy. lol PPS - Anybody know the one I missed? Sitting just to the right of Foster Brooks when Foster sits down at the end. Merv Griffin? Last edited by Esteban; 12-18-2023 at 09:56 PM.. |
