SoCal Deek Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 Tibs....we finally found the incident that shaped your future and stunted your mental growth. Well at least you’ve provided us all with some context and perspective now. This explains a lot. 1
Chef Jim Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 Such a tragedy. I’ve never been able to figure out how the very anti-establishment hippies of the 60’s have become such pro/big government today. They went from taking care of themselves on communes to taking care of everyone whether they want or even need the help. 4

Nah. 1

Nah. He missed the boat on most of those in terms of the 50th anniversary. He's down to the 50th anniversary of his Grandpa buying a Ford Maverick which rusted into a pile of junk in just 24 months.

I remember my father thinking cars shouldn’t be that small. Fast forward to 2020 and it’d be classified as a full-size at your local rental car dealer!

Wacka Posted May 4, 2020 Posted May 4, 2020 I have a feeling that 50 years ago Tibs wasn’t even a stain on his mother’s sheets

I think that I only saw one Maverick that did not have extensive rust after a year and a half of being built. School teacher that I had during the mid-1970's owned a Ford Ranchero (Ford's answer to Chevy's El Camino) that was not much better but there were so few made that the collectors go after them.

My brother has a Ranchero, completely restored and only taken out on sunny Sundays a few times a year. I have vague memories of my father's new El Camino when I was just a wee lad.
Tiberius Posted June 3, 2020 Author Posted June 3, 2020 Today is the anniversary of the Battle of Cold Harbor in 1864. One of the worst disasters in United States military history. General Grant threw three army corps right at Lee’s lines and they were slaughtered. Seven thousand soldiers fell in twenty minutes. Racism caused the war that led to such slaughter. Racism hurts everyone. 1
Reality Check Posted June 3, 2020 Posted June 3, 2020 Tibs hero has a message for everyone. We must bring these super predators to heel. Tibs hero just loves black people. Hillary has done more for black people than anyone. Just look at Haiti. She just loves Haitians too...especially the little ones...
