  1. By all means go see a launch. My friend from Ohio went to a night-time launch and he said it was incredible. Night time became day light. Like you said, there are only 5 launches remaining.

  5. Comments made in the year 1955! That's only 55 years ago! 'I'll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, it's going to be impossible to buy a week's groceries for $10.00. 'Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long before $1, 000.00 will only buy a used one. 'If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit. 20 cents a pack is ridiculous.. 'Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging 7 cents just to mail a letter. 'If they raise the minimum wage to $1.00, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store. 'When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 25 cents a gallon. Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage. 'I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying DAMN in GONE WITH THE WIND, it seems every new movie has either HELL or DAMN in it. 'I read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas . 'Did you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for $50,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday they'll be making more than the President.. 'I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be electric. They are even making electric typewriters now.. 'It's too bad things are so tough nowadays.

I sometimes wonder if we are electing the best people to government. 'The drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they will ever catch on. 'There is no sense going on short trips anymore for a weekend, it costs nearly $2.00 a night to stay in a hotel. 'No one can afford to be sick anymore, at $15.00 a day in the hospital, it's too rich for my blood..' 'If they think I'll pay 30 cents for a hair cut, forget it.'

  15. I received a new Bills coffee mug. The old one broke. That one I had received in 1999. Now that it is broken and gone, a new mug will give the Bills good karma and they will make the playoffs next year. Ya gotta believe in miracles on Christmas

  18. The Steelers did that last Sunday. Doug Legursky #64 lined up as a fullback when the Steelers had the ball on the 3 yard line. He blocked, Steelers scored a TD.
  19. Just rescued my abandoned car. I was half way down the hill and a guy gave me a ride on his ATV.. He was going to his MIL's house which happened to be righ next to where my car was. He even helped me shovel out my car. There ARE good peeps around ... 5 other drivers were parked in the same place I was.
  20. I hope your knee is better real soon. It's hell to get old.
  21. 22 inches on my driveway in S WV. Just finished with the snow blower and I am tired. 3 hours, but that included my neighbors too. The top of the blower is 22" and most of the snow was even with the top. So, I have a clean driveway and nowhere to go as the streets are not cleared and everything is shut down.
  22. Tcali...yes WV has several positive living aspects to it. Low taxes, low cost of housing, low crime rate. The weather is mild, well except for last night and today. Lots of sports and outdoor activities are available. Health care is OK from my experiences. Transportation is a negative issue as is the education system. If you have kids of school age, look for a private school.
  23. and eggs.. After all blizzards mean it is French Toast time....geesh. Although I am glad I bought groceries on Wed. Somewhere I read that PopTarts are the number one consumed 'food' during storms/power outages
