Captain Company was the merchandising division of Warren Publishing, Inc., which published Famous Monsters of Filmland, Eerie, Creepy, Vampirella and other titles. Warren originally started in Philadelphia, moving to 145 E. 32nd St., NYC in 1965. That was great for me. I used to beg and get my mother to take me to the offices once in a while so I could buy (actually so she could. She had the mazuma ) all that neat junk in the magazines and get back issues. I never could get FMOF #1 because, even in the mid '60s, it cost $100 through the magazine. Captain company is still in business. It's owned by the putz who purchased the publishing rights to Famous Monsters: Captain Company

Who are her "friends"?

Ditto at the new Michaels near me.

Ain't it funny....the same bunch of stronzos who made sure we couldn't get alcohol for thirteen years because it wasn't good for you are now extolling its virtues. You want that i check yer earl, pally?

Joe, I was pondering your question further. Google "Greenpoint oil spill". My neighborhood in Brooklyn sits on a 30,000,000 gallon oil spill, THREE times the size of the Exxon Valdez spill, thanks to Standard Oil/Mobil/ExxonMobil, Amoco/BP and Paragon Oil/ChevronTexaco. Check out some of the oil spill-related hijinks and stories: Site of the Great Greenpoint Sewer Explosion The Most Terrifying Fire in Greenpoint History The Ooze New York's Dirty Secret: The effort to clean up America's largest oil spill With that amount of petroleum underground, we could apply for membership in OPEC. So, in rethinking my answer, I'd say either would be preferable compared to what we have.

The key word is "was", I got rid of the car in 1993. I hit a large pothole near the 59th St. Bridge and the rear struts went right through the top of the strut towers. it wasn't worth the cost of repairing the resulting damage. I like borscht with some sour cream.

I live in an apartment building so I won't encounter either. My point is that ethanol blend fuels are a scam. The emission control equipment found in vehicles is supposed to, as I mentioned earlier, reduce toxic emissions to negligible levels. It's bad enough that they restrict exhaust flow, thereby affecting performance. The use of ethanol blends, in combination with the catalytic converters, lower performance more. I had an almost 10% increase in horsepower in my old '86 Taurus with a junkyard SHO 3.0 L V6 after the pellets inside the catalytic converter "mysteriously" disappeared. City driving takes a toll on mileage, especially with the traffic here, and ethanol blends make it even worse. Sorry, but ethanol production for use as a gas additive is nothing more than a subsidy for corn farmers to maintain a high price for that particular crop. Grow beets.

Get less for more.

Nice shot glass.

Not here in NYC, man. When the pumps are switched over to the ethanol blend for the winter, the price goes up about 25-40 cents per gallon. Besides, catalytic converters are supposed to reduce emissions to almost negligible levels; so, what's up with that scam? That ain't gas fumes I smell. That's the stench of quid pro quo and repayment in kind for the bakshish from the corn growers association to the politicians. Why doesn't PITA get involved?!? They're letting my filet mignon starve fer chrissakes!!! Say "NO!" to E85! Say "YES!' to cheap beef!

Don't you mean "punch"? I knew hardcore alkies who would distill Sterno in order to get buzzed.

Nothing wrong with that. Everybody understands drunk. Hic!

Yup. E85 doesn't mix well with orange juice. If I had a choice, I'd go with Aqua Velva.

Everclear tastes better.

I believe it. I ran out of gas and used a bottle of Spirytus (Polish rectified spirits, 96% alcohol) to drive far enough to find a filling station.

There are more important uses for corn, like making Everclear.

I can tell that you are honest as the day is long.

Yeah, and I like inexpensive Prime Rib and Porterhouse!

Of course. Your car c raps out because the engine is verkakte; therefore, you no longer produce pollution and can get a bicycle to get around. More pollutants are expelled by a single volcanic eruption than the combined efforts of every human on this planet. If it was possible, EPA would fine volcanos..

Càit a bheil an taigh beag?

So, lemme see if I got this straight. All I have to do is wire you $2500 to cover transaction fees and the $274,000,000,000.29 a dead uncle who lived in Lagos left me will be deposited into my non-existent Santander bank account, right? DEAL!

Definitely interesting and sad.

Say, did I ever show you my kid's school picture from fifth grade? Why, even Gabe Kaplan "borrowed" that same look.
