I saw an old Chevy pickup in the parking lot at my work. It was indeed very nice!
My share of rent, last place I 'paid'.
I dont have any pets of my own, therefore, no grooming.

Today's Question(s):

What is the last thing(s) you saw that made you say

OOO I want one !!!! ?My standard joke is to see some pretty young thing and say "I want one of those for Christmas." Turns out though that my wife has a problem with that. I told her she could have some pretty young thing for Christmas as well. In fact is she wanted I would check with the pretty young thing I was looking at to see if she had a sister. LOL


Extra Credit Question:

What was the last place you paid to get in to ? A club in LA.


Inquiring Minds Question:
For the pet owners

Do you pay more for your pets grooming than your own haircuts ? No. Our dog has very short hair.


Bonus Question:
Remember yesterday when I mentioned the unusual things that happened in the 60s well

Are you older or younger than Iron Butterfly's song "In-a-gadda-da-vida" I was born in 65 so I was 3 years old. Amazing that you bring that band up. I know the former band manager and have been to his home. I also know two of the original members of the band.

How many of our QOTD family have never heard of this song ? Not sure it was in the top 10 for over a year and a half and lasted on the charts for 140 weeks.


Just for Fun:

There is a "dearth" of _________ in my home ?



Today in History:
1801 - A 1,235 pound cheese ball was pressed at the farm of Elisha Brown, Jr. The huge ball of cheese was later loaded on a horse-driven wagon and presented to President Thomas Jefferson at the White House
1858 - Fee 1st charged to see a baseball game (50 cents ) (New York beats Brooklyn 22-18)
1940 - Billboard publishes its 1st singles record chart (#1 is "I'll Never Smile Again" by Tommy Dorsey)
1968 - Iron Butterfly's "In-a-gadda-da-vida" becomes 1st heavy metal song to hit charts, it comes in at #117
1969 - With “...one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind,” astronaut, Neil Armstrong, pilot of the lunar spacecraft, the "Eagle", made the first footsteps on the surface of the moon at 10:56 p.m. EDT.


Word of the Day:
dearth \DURTH\ , noun;
1. An inadequate supply; scarcity; lack.




Today is:
National Lollipop Day
National Ice Cream Soda Day
Chess Day
Ugly Truck Contest Day
National Nap Day
Man on the Moon Day[/quote]
