It is an alternate spelling of my first name and the first two letters of me last.

Jackson

 

[bajaespuma]

Bajaespuma

We were a solid DASH household because the first time a GE technician came to fix something on the machine (likely a sock that floated into the outer tub) he recommended low-sudsing detergent and we used that brand until it disappeared.

The first time I bought Ariel to try I noticed on the side panel an advert for "Ariel Bajaespuma" for front-loaders and I've been wanting to try it ever since. and Filter-Flo was already taken.

 

[goatfarmer]

Pontiac GTO is called a 'GOAT'. We had 3 of 'em at one time, hence 'goatfarmer'. Down to one these days.

 

[appnut]

appnut, appliance nut

Lawrence/Maytagbear

[jeffg]

I'm sorry I missed the 50's, although it would have been a lot more fun without the "Cold War" scam. Somewhere in the neighborhood of $100 trillion funneled to two corrupt military(gov't)-industrial complexes over 40 years.

Imagine being taught that ducking under a school desk will protect you against a nuclear bomb attack. I don't think I could have handled the mass stupidity, or insanity, or whatever it was.

 

[butch-innj]

I was born in '48 so I do remember most of the 50's
I loved the "I Love Lucy Show"....watched it everyday in the
summer when I was out of school.
I also remember "My Little Margie", starring Gale Storm.
Gale Storm was also in another show with Zazu Pitts in it.
It took place on a ship but I forget the name of it now.

I can remember that my Grandmom had the first TV on my street.
It was this big black box that had a tiny 12" screen on the
front and all the shows were in black & white.
Her whole family (her 9 grown children with their husbands or
wives and their kids) would go to her house on Tuesday nights
to watch the old Milton Berle show.

Too many memories and too many shows to list them all here.

Comes from playing hide and seek with my young cousins a few years ago

Ready

Here
I
Come

 

[volvoguy87]

Volvoguy87

After my junior year of high school, and after bugging my parents for some years, I got the car I almost always wanted, a 1987 Volvo 240 GL. I always wanted (and still want) a 1975 Volvo 164e, but a 240 is a good substitute. It has been 10 years since I got my old Volvo and I love it even more now than I did then.

$2,800.00 for a 12 year old car with 115,500 miles that is still a daily driver a decade later is pretty good by me. I'll drive it 'till the wheels fall off, then I'll put them back on and drive some more.

It's good to drive an old Volvo,
Dave

 

[strongenough78]

Well me being a huge Cher fan, StrongEnough is one of her songs and probably my most favorite, and 78 was the year I was born.

 

[alr2903]

My initials and the last four digits of the phone number at our old house.... If you are going to be a porn star, you pick the name of a childhood street, and a pet... or so I have heard

 

[frigilux]

Frigilux: A mash-up of Frigidaire and Electrolux.

 

[panthera]

Panthera

1) Name of one of my favorite characters in a story
2) I am growing a tad wary of the "getting to know you questions"...

 

[toggleswitch2]

~you pick the name of a childhood street, and a pet... or so I have heard

That works for drag-queens as well.

 

[frigilux]

JeffG---I was a little kid at the tail-end of the 'duck & cover' generation. Believe me, you'll look back and see a lot of stupidity, mass insanity from your youthful era, too. "You mean people actually thought creationism was science?!"

 

[toggleswitch2]

Speaking of dancing dogs......

 

[yogitunes]

Panthera should change to Paranoid/Pantywaist

You would be wary if your finger broke thru the toilet paper!

There are a lot of interesting people in here across the globe, and yet we really are all the same, but with unique thoughts and opinions...

wasn't hard to "read" you before all the e-mails from the gang! answer or not, makes no difference to anyone, most are laughing at you, not with you!
