  1. The writers must have had a thing for American cars - Thunderbirds and Stingray - whose main character was named Troy Tempest, and Supercar's protagonist was Mike Mercury. And in one episode, it looks like they threw away the model and used the box instead:
  2. "Continues hour after hour", said the tired nurse when asked how long the babies in the maternity ward wail.
  3. Rob, you got it! Thanks so much! I passed it on to my boss and we'll see what happens. Hope we can find the front hood. Looks like it's one of the tube-frame examples, surprisingly with an automatic.
  4. My boss sent me a link to an auction that has this sleek yellow... thing; I'll try to dissuade him from adding it to his stash (which never works!), but in the meantime, anyone know what it is? I ran the license number through both DMV sites without result; 950 NDI would have been issued around '74 or '75. It doesn't match any Fiberfab, Kellison or Bradley designs I can find. Over to the experts!
  5. "Sucks to your ass-mar", said Jack in Lord of the Flies.
  6. Hey! They finally corrected that box! Much better.
  7. "Well, you told me to get 'em off the coffee table!"
  8. My dad was sharp mentally until the day he died; he knew my mom was starting to slip and was hoping to outlive her, but she outlived him by nearly four years. It was vascular dementia that she had, caused by an inoperable blockage in an artery that takes blood to the brain. I did my best to take care of her until my brothers and I knew it was time to enroll her into a memory care home. She knew what was going on so it was less of a shock to her, and she was well cared for until she passed last October.
  9. Hitters are not always graceful runners - right, Babe Ruth? Time caught up with me while I was typing.
  10. Storms were restyled Isuzu Impulses.
  11. 2023 calendars are now on sale for 90% off list price.
  12. '50s Revell kits had multi-piece bodies.
  13. I, I, Captain, says the egotistical sailor.
  14. '41 Plymouth is pretty much the only game in town for a smaller flat 6; only thing is the stock Willys was a four, not a six. The MPC Hogan's Heroes WWII Jeep should have that engine.
  15. Either wipe it or blow it!
  16. Factory stock '65 Comet? If that means really straight-from-the-dealer stock - with correct-height front suspension and standard wheel covers and grille - I'm in.
  17. Guy Smiley was the game show host on Sesame Street.
