When Mac came on the market my dad was right there ready to get one. Over the years he kept buying them and then having someone "improve" it with installations. I would get his old Macs when he bought a new one. I love Macs, never had many issues or problems with mine. I've had other brands with Windows and never liked them. I'm a Mac girl until I die.
My grandparents came to America in the 1910's and were processed through Ellis Island and their name was changed from MacNaughton to MacNaught. Got any explanation of that??
On my 3rd birthday I got an enormous box filled with cake and cookie mixes. About half the size of Jiffy mixes. It also came with mixing bowls, cookie sheets, spoons and other utensils. My mother and grandmother taught me how to cook with a real oven so when the light bulb oven came out it had no appeal to me.
troll booth that 'Safe baby handling tips' was too funny. It reminds me of the holiday joke boxes that had fake advertising them with ads like gerbil like water bottle feeders for babies and as a bonus you get the weekender stew in a bag to teach baby how to chew food so you can take weekend vacations while leaving baby at home or Bacon scented fabric softener sheets. That one is surprisingly popular. Thanks for the laughs!
Wish I'd had that thing when the neighbor's baby started squalling. Actually, I could see kids launching their dolls across the room but please hide the puppies and kittens! FYI a seat belt would be pretty handy with this thing.
On my 2nd watching I realized that the lyrebird in the back does a perfect imitation of a chainsaw buzzing and then a tree fell on him! So, why did the tree fall?
I guess I'll need a bank loan to afford that burger. We quit going to McDonalds when an order for 2 adults cost more than the cost of 2 meals at a sit in restaurant.
That video really made me laugh. Watching the non-speaking animals in the background doing their thing was a brilliant idea. Thanks for the hearty laughs, Neatorama-lama-dingdong!
When one of my brother-in-laws was a toddler he got into my husband's chemistry set. He was 12 at the time and chemistry sets are much different than today's sets. Anyway, the kid ate a bottle of cobalt chloride which turned his tongue blue and around Xmas time the same kid started breathing oddly. His mom took him to the doctor and he pulled out a handful of plastic holly berries from his nose.
So many people passed away that were well known and admired. I read the list of 201 people but I'm sure there are others unaccounted for. I know I shall miss Tony Bennett, David Crosby and Tina Turner (and more) for their wonderful music. Happy New Year to everyone at Neatorama! May this new year be our best one yet.
