troutman Posted June 25, 2016 Share Posted June 25, 2016 Morning now and I've got the day off. Slept an hour longer than usual.And all I've got on my plate is some housework, TRF, the gym, then meet my wife for dinner at our favorite place in the city. Don't forget the Tater Tots!! :PI forgot! On the train going home now (10:30pm). Wife's sleeping in the seat next to me...I guess the bottle of wine we polished off was too much for her. In the 15 minutes since we left the restaurant to where I'm sitting now, I've seen one drunk businessman fall head first into some bushes, another slob of a drunk businessman held up by his tolerant wife as he proclaims in his slurred speech "daijobu" ((says he's alright...but of course he's totally not)), and yet another drunk businessman supported on both arms by his loyal co-workers as they drag him towards the ticket gate laughing. So yeah, there are fewer drunks out than usual. You'll never read about these things in the Lonely Planet travel guidebooks. I like to bring them to you. Can't wait for the book to come out! :P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Analog Grownup Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 This thursday I got to experience Rammstein for the second time, this time with family and close friends. A highlight was being close to the stage with my 59 year old mom, and she loved it. A particular cool feat was that this was at a festival in my hometown. My mom is cool 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldRUSHfan Posted June 27, 2016 Share Posted June 27, 2016 A car I've been in LOVE with since the early '60s finally is being made by a Company, and is available through a Die-cast model store in Italy. It is the 1960 Plymouth Valiant, and I GOT ONE!!! It arrived today, but I noticed that nothing opens on this model. Therefore I don't think the company that makes it should charge what they do for it. but, it is an actually GOOD looking model! The kid who was my friend, had one because his father had bought a Valiant a coupe years before, and had been given a friction engined model of the car when he purchased the real car. I fell in love with the design back then, and the 'tilted' real tail light optics was one of the reasons. The same reason I liked the early '60s Mercury Comet, which my brother bought one. Well, here it is:http://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Me%20stuff/My%20Fleet-%201960%20Plymouth%20Valiant%203%20cr.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Me%20stuff/My%20Fleet-%201960%20Plymouth%20Valiant%202%20cr.jpghttp://i81.photobucket.com/albums/j223/OldRUSHfan/Me%20stuff/My%20Fleet-%201960%20Plymouth%20Valiant%201%20cr.jpg :banana: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
