I miss the heft of these:
Those Western Electric phones were so damn solid, you could legit use the receiver as a blunt force weapon.
One of my long term projects is to acquire a 1940’s vintage black bakelite desk phone for my home office. You can splice a modern RJ-11 connector on the cord.

Back in the 90s, there was a Quincy's and Shoney's next door to each other. Across the street was an O'Charley's. Then the Western Sizzlin' was about a half mile down the road.
The 90s were so good. Peak Americana for me as an early 80s baby.

Westgate Drive-in in Metairie. (A relative owned it.)
Spent many nights there with my siblings watching my dad's favorite, "The Sound of Music" while the pic burned on the station wagon's (wood-paneled of course) dash.

I have a set of those "NOEL" Christmas candles.
Bought them online about 20yrs ago.
Website is gone.
I prefer older style decorations.
We had the aluminum christmas tree with color wheel when I was a kid in the 60s and 70s

My grandma took us to Fun Fair Park often. It was so much fun. And we would always get cotton candy and popcorn. And I remember that poor monkey.

If you put them in the freezer for about 30 minutes it was heaven
