Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

My mother would make caramel apples and candy apples and sell them off the back porch to the klids in the neighborhood. How do you think that would go over now?

I've got a good Craig Ferguson hockey meme if you really feel the need to get another one.

Still ticked about that. Can't believe someone reported me.

Someone reported you? LOL I am used to what is said in other threads....Steve and Mom are pretty lenient as far as I can tell.

She would have to accept EBT now.

There's a house on my BIL's street that still gives out caramel apples at Hallowe'en - but only to families they know, and their address label is affixed to the wrapper.

We had an older man in our neighborhood who would throw handfuls of candy to any kids he saw on the street. I've often thought of how that would fly in today's world.

I think it automatically censors that word, and a few others....

I got a generic reply that I'd earned a demerit for inappropriate language. I should think PhotoDave gets a lot of them.

Oops...that's broken too

Tinsel is like **** carpet - it drifts in and out of style.

Hopefully, avocado green and harvest gold appliances have gone buh-bye for good though. (With full apologies to @Eric1955.)

I just had a massive flash back to when I was a kid. We used to lie on the floor under the tree. That was back when Christmas trees were not cultivated professionally. There were sometimes two foot gaps between the branches on most trees (think about Charlie Browns tree). That was the norm then, the lights were those medium sized bulbs that were very hot.** The tinsel was used to fill those two foot gaps and the heat from the lights used to bring out the pine smell from the trees. We also had those skinny bubble lights scattered in different places. Angel hair was popular to but I don't remember that we had that. Most of the neighbors did though. If one bulb burnt out (which they did all the time) the whole string was out. You'd take out one at a time and try to find out which one was the bad one. Sometimes there were more then one out and further complicated the process.

Never had any avacado or harvest green stuff. My first house did have coppertone stuff though. I still like that. My first apartment had a baby blue stove. Thank god that got struck by lightening and went to stove heaven. Now it seems to be either white or stainless. As a kid everything in the kitchen was white. The appliances and cupboards and counter tops. Now my apartment is back like the days of my youth. I like colors better. That's why we have color receptors in our eyes. If everything is black and white we don't need to be able to see colors.

Spoiler: **

No, even as old as I am, candles on the tree were before my time.

Well then, there's your job for tomorrow. I can never find our stash anymore anyway.

I'm out for a bit. I've had my show on pause for 45 minutes already. And what was I thinking leaving my nails so long? I can scarcely type, and worse yet, I didn't even qualify for QB!

****? S H A G

who knew?

Haven't you seen any Austin Powers movies?

EDIT: Sorry I should have finished reading before I posted.

There is a broken image symbol where the paranoid smiley once lay. And when you try to open in a new tab you get.

I tend to like contrasts. My first house had a dark walnut cabinets, coppertone appliances, Orange countertops and back-splash, orange/yellow print wall paper. I'm sure the floor was something gaudy as well, but, I don't remember what it was. That, even I will admit, was a bit over the top.
