Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I forgot when we got internet that it came with a phone line whether we wanted it or not, so when I found the paperwork and remembered I hooked up my phones. I didn't do the brown one yet because I didn't want to crawl under the house.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
That's really cool! Do you have a mold for that? Looks like it. We were broke when my sons were small. They only got Mickey in a silhouette. I made snakes and other things too.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Haha, yea we’ve made all kinds of things with pancake batter on the cast iron griddle. Yea it’s actually kinda like a waffle maker, well it’s marketed as a waffle maker but it makes pancakes a lot better than waffles. I like light fluffy waffles and with this they turn out pretty dense. My kids love it.

We had a small (3.2) earthquake this afternoon. I walked all around the place, but it doesn't even look like anything moved.

Maybe I’ll get one for my wife. She’s the biggest Disney nerd I’ve ever seen.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Searched many years to recover five "velva" black light posters I had as a kid. Old favorites right, 1973-1976 if I remember right. Anyway, I received "Ice Ship" today, hung it up & set up the lights. My taste in these hasn't changed, and the ship is even more vibrant than I remember. The Ice Ship gave me four of five. Technically 4.5 of 5.
Ironically, the fifth of five came up this week as well. Thing is I had the full size 23x35" "Super Shark", probably paid 12 bucks for it. I recovered a 11x17" version few years ago, $80. Anyway, the 23x35" shark cost a guy over $500 today. I was curious what kind of IDIOT would pay $500 for one of these (kidding, cough!). I can say the guy is a rock n roller type, probably waging against Sammy Haggar or something like I only know enough he collects some very cool stuff & expensive taste. While I made excuses to hit a higher pitch dude bid 4-5 times same day early, hit it high the last and never looked back. The camera doesn't know how to react to a black light, couldn't tell you why, but this is the best it can give and it refuses to snap the shark. I have to move a shelf yet to hit that Buck right. Three of these are (were) NOS. I'm only in this disaster total $340 less cheap frames. Someone saved me a lot of money today.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I never had any of the blacklight posters back in the day, but I did have an original of Farrah in the red bathing suit, Cheryl Teigs in the Pink bikini, and Susan Anton from the movie Golden girl. They were lined up om one wall that you could see through the second floor window from the street. That wasn't really the plan, it just worked out that way.
Originals of at least 2 of those would probably be worth something today, but no where near $500. There were millions of them.

Some posters enter four digits. I'm no expert, but those seem to be rare super hero and rock. As "Funky Enterprise" type posters the 23x35 Super Shark is most valuable, apparently. Another 23x35" will come up someday, but I think I'll pass $500+ & declare this little project done. Having a 11x17 isn't the worst thing - it's the only small one I've seen & came cheap. Rare doesn't mean valuable as they say. That Buck cost me $25 second time around, about 12 years ago. Super Shark is rare but the Buck is on another level. It was my favorite and still is. I redecorated the bedrooms so the light hits it right.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I read somewhere that the Farrah poster was the best selling poster of all time.
I had a velvet Jimi Hendrix. My wife sold it at a tag sale first year we were married. Actually, I think she gave it to the guy that fixed our furnace. I guess it didn't fit the decor. I still have the Sports Illustrated swimsuit editions from the 70's though. |

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I finally hung my Mr. Suds sign on the side of my patio. Mr. Suds was kind of a landmark in Bakersfield. They tore it down. It's an Auto Zone now. So much for history.
I was lucky enough to get the sign. It's really big. You can see it from the boulevard. I'm waiting for someone to show up and order a cheeseburger and a root beer float.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Well, I went for a hike for the first time in about a month!
I left right after chores while the ground was still (mostly) frozen. Sometimes crunching through hard snow and the rest of the time dodging ice and muddy places.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Fixed up another lantern I picked up last fall at a swap meet, model 200A built July 1967. And then went and shoveled gravel into the pot holes in my driveway...can't wait for the frost to go out and the water to soak in.

Haven't used it in years, but the way things are going I should get it out and see if I can get it to work. Also have a pair of double mantles that someone gave us and that I've never tried to use.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Yeah, 200's are single mantle, 220 & 228's are the most common double mantle models. You should dig them out and get them cleaned up and working again! I've got seven lanterns and a catalytic heater, my favorites are the 1955 202 model and 1946 242C model.
