I’m still working and must laugh regularly. I play clawhammer banjo with people I like, read widely, and sell books and secure the galleries at the Michael C. Carlos Museum of Emory University.

Monarez: "Kennedy demanded 2 things of me that were were inconsistent w/ my oath of office. He directed me to commit in advance to approving every ACIP recommendation regardless of the scientific evidence. He also directed me to dismiss career officials responsible for vaccine policy without cause"

I truly loved this book, a different tone from The Nam, and missed both after their runs.

Not to belabor the crucifixion metaphor, but, in the words of poet Wendell Berry, in Manifesto: the Mad Farmer Liberation Front, "Practice resurrection."

Thank you, Kevin. Somewhere, I still hope I have my "Telstar" single from you and The Fans. Big howdy and high-five to you and Heli.

Yes AND often compared candies to comic books for best value! You got a lot of Boston Baked Beans for the coin. I do remember the Brach's displays, too.

This is the best thread of worst candies. My vote goes to: Lik-M-Aid, evidently now "Fun Dip." Watch and listen here, even "Ghoulish Fun Dip." youtu.be/d3NfX4cE_og?...

When I was a kid, we had fine sculpture of Uncle Remus characters. I like the Popeye sculpture in style of Elzie Segar in this whole thread. "I will gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."
