Sanitary Landfill. Yup. I knew a guy who managed the Cortland County NY site. He had quite a collection of porn mags. Hope that wasn't included in the kid's game.
One time Mrs.O and I while traveling stopped off in one of those roadside pull over/picnic areas for lunch. I heard this noise in a trash barrel and looked inside to see what it was. Yes. A raccoon. I tipped it over and it scurried off to freedom.
Once one of our cats when it was a kitten decided to climb up a tree behind our garage. I didn't have a ladder, so I went out onto the garage roof and held a long ix6 board up to where she was. She obliged by walking down the board to safety. I heard someone clapping and turned to see a passerby who was watching the whole thing from the end of our driveway. The cat must have learned a lesson as she never did anything like that again.
Of course I didn't see that "H" was not really connected and picked that with the knowledge of water and gravity. Cool puzzle on several levels (sorry for the pun).
I remember the first TV I ever saw was a neighbor up the street. They placed it in their front window so anyone passing by could see that they had one.
The one in 19 63 in NE US was epic, or so I'm told. A thick layer of clouds prevented any viewing. It was odd having it be so dark for a while in the middle of the afternoon.
My Maternal Grandfather was the head psychiatrist at the then Newark State School in Newark NY. I visited him a few times in the summer and he took me to work with him. Needless to say it was a creepy experience for a young boy. I guess it would be creepy even for this old guy.
I was trout fishing with my son in an out of the way stream in the northern Catskills. He caught a native brook trout around 10" that had a very swollen belly. I cut it open to see what the wild trout was eating. Much to our surprise it had a snake about 12" inside. Those wild trout were like fresh water barracudas.
A decent boxer with good hand speed and reflexes is a tough opponent. They can pretty much hit you where and when they want and you pretty much can't at all. See some of a young Ali to witness that.
