Those are some nice memories. Thank you for sharing them.
A year and a half ago, I could have eviscerated him with my thoughts. Now I can barely hurt his feelings. Things used to be so much simpler.

Gone the way of all textiles, I guess.
Army (and Navy) surplus was a huge thing in the 40s and 50s. After WWII it was so cheap and the government sold off the excess.

Wow, what a great reminiscence! Really evocative.

Just found out that our corporate Safety Guy is leaving, the "good bye" email he sent to select people said continuing to work for our company conflicted with his ethics and morals! I'm so curious what is going on! Sounds not good for anybody.

Safety-related ethics and morals? That's a little worrisome.

The Boris thing would certainly be on brand!

What a lovely set of memories from your sister!
Oh, man, that's funny! (Hugh's mechanations)
Hmmm, -t, Safety Guy bailing is totally suspicious.

Thrive to spite them
I really want McConnell gone. And Clarence Thomas and others.
I had a fairly ok day at work. Came home , M's niece was here. Somehow we know also have his cousin's daughter. M's sister left her long time partner (thank god, this is a good thing) and has gotten a job working at a factory overnights (the job sucks, I wish she would find a better one) and for some reason no one can watch M's niece and then we found out no one can watch his cousin's daughter so....now we have 2 girls I don't know well and I'm kind of hiding. I don't feel social at all.
I have tomorrow off so that is good. I'm going to try to do something fun.
