Here is the famous Unisphere, symbol of the 1964 World's Fair and promoting the fair's theme of "Peace Through Understanding"

This is the New York State Pavilion. It has been mostly abandoned since the 1970s and is closed to the public

This patch of grass may not look like much, but by using an old map I was able to find out that this was the site of the GE Pavilion and Carousel of Progress during the World's Fair.

Except for a few obvious remnants, there are almost zero things left in the park that indicate that a world's fair ever took place here. Nonetheless, the weather was beautiful today, so I enjoyed walking around the park.

Are those the "alien saucer" ships from Men in Black ?

I've never seen the movie, so I don't know

I just spent the most money ever for one pair of sneakers. They fit wonderful but let's just say I only got them because they are a birthday present for my parents to give to me.

I should be out doing yard work today, but the foot is still a nuisance. I also just finished up a Harry Potter thread in the Universal Forum. Check it out, if you are a Potter fan.

The last two days of my vacation were so relaxing. The weather was so beautiful. Too bad we could not have had all that nice sunshine when we were at Disney.

I think I am finally done editing all my pics, but I am still waiting for my CD to arrive with my Memory Maker pics on it. Sure, I did my downloads, but copying the CD is so much easier for my two friends.

I trust the car is red and gold

Sadly, no. Silver. I thought about naming it war machine. It's Iron Man because it's tough and resistant to body damage. Yes, weird reasoning.

A car.. on fire.. during rain?

Petroleum products have no fear of rain (water) it is simply lighter then water, floats to the top and burns away. Water will only spread it out wider. So, yea... A car... on fire... during rain! And because of the rain it can become a spectacular one at that. The only way to put it out is by smothering it with a foam or powder.

I have no names for any of my things. It's just beyond weird and freaky.

Naming the instruments is a musician thing. In school, we all named our instruments. The cars got their names accidentally. I just randomly started referring to them that way one day.

Well, al things are fine and dandy.. until your things start to talk you back after you yell their names

Haha, I was thinking the same thing.

"Why else would we have had it in Queens?"

That might be nice. The car might explain to me some of its quirks.

At Hershey Park waiting in line for the Claw. My one friend dislocated her shoulder a few weeks ago and is being cautious. The other girl she brought doesn't ride everything. So they went off to ride the pirate ship, which makes me motion sick. But waiting in line by yourself is extremely boring...

So it's 3am and I'm wide awake on a Saturday. Been wide awake since 2.

Sometimes it just happens . . . but what a waste of a weekend morning to not get your extra zzz's!! (If it was me, regardless of the day of the week, I'd be in tough shape--I need all the beauty sleep I can get!!)

Our Market is only open a couple more weeks and the crops are becoming more marginal. Last week I found some nice looking tomatoes and was pretty excited. That was until one emploded literally. The outside still intact the center actually exploded-everywhere. What the heck?

OMG!! This is hysterical !!! (Note to @figmentfan423 --- vegetables are dangerous. Eat cookies. I never had a cookie explode--health food.)

I don't have names for any of my things either. But, I'm still weird and freaky, regardless..

 

[MinnieM123]

Actually, I have every right to not vote and then complain...it's called the First Ammendmant.

Actually, I've "elected" (as in election . . . ) to do both options down through the years--sometimes vote, sometimes not. Never realized I was exercising my First Amendment rights. (Makes me feel better about the few years I didn't vote!)

The Polar Express is on Cartoon Network. I love this movie.
