Vintage shots from days gone by!

My mother's gonna get me for that one - she's from Gulfport and probably took the photo!

 

Oh geez, I hope not.

Sophia is just proving that no one can not look at cleavage - one of god's best creations.

The Turbo Encabulator was nothing new &#8211; it had lived only on paper in some obscure
student technical manuals from the Forties.
Finally brought to film, and explained in the 70s.

 

"MINE ARE BIGGER"

 

If you had trouble with the first film explaining the Turbo Encabulator,
I think you will find this 1984 film much simpler to understand.

Maybe this boat would go if they put some motor in it!
Miss America- don't know what year.

 

Miss America X - 1933

 

Perhaps this might interest those in the Boston Area who remember a time before Craig's list. When people would use a weekly-rag called the Want Advertiser. "New England's Biggest and Best Classified Ad Magazine"

A WANT AD, a dial-telephone, pencil, paper, and folded-map was how people did it before the internet and GPS. This one still survives today.

 

everybody likes cleavage

 

I do beleve that is a TE 440

 

I think they were thinking 2 different things

Even before the advent of the dreadnoughts juiced up the pace of production, supplying the ordnance for the predreadnought navies was a major source of employment and profit for the huge armaments industries in participating countries. Then as now, armaments workers and owners exercised considerable political clout, not least in securing their jobs and profits. Concerns that arms spending could lead to a disastrous war were brushed off as the naïve prattlings of well-intentioned but ill-informed sissies.

Check out that shop! Are those lathes?

The Pixie opened in the 1930's at Oceanlake, Oregon, which is now Lincoln City. Along with the restaurant came "Pixieland" which was opened in 1967. It was a 57 acre "fairytale Story Of Oregon" complete with a frontier village, canoe docks, children's zoo, tree-house, Indian Village, merry-go-round and Ferris wheel.....Oh and the famous log flume thrill ride! Cost was estimated at two million dollars and the owner, Jerry Parks hired two former Disneyland creators to help design the park.
Pixieland closed within four years. The rides and buildings were all torn down. The Log Flume Ride was sold to Lagoon Amusement park in Farmington Utah where it still amazes kids to this day. Over the years The Pixieland Kitchen changed hands several times and it operated for over 60 years. In the late 80's it vanished with its funny mirrors and all. It was truly a wonderful place and filled with the best memories.


You ARE NOT an Oregonian if you don't know the Pixie Kitchen.
Sad, but places like this are replaced with generic Denny's, Applebee's, etc !
