When I grew up, we were “free range kids”.

Beverly Hillbillies, I Dream of Jeannie, Mission Impossible

That post title brings back memories:

It was 1981 and my mom was having a hard time getting over the passing of my dad. So for a while, I occasionally took her to the movies.

One Saturday, I took her to see “Heavy Metal”.

She watched attentively with nary a comment.

Afterwards, I expected her to say something about it, given its mature content.

And, as we were passing through the lobby, she did:

“That was a cartoon.”

When I’d spend a summer week at my Grandma’s in the early '60s, my cousin would take me to Luke’s Store, where a dollar would buy a bag full of candies. Always included was a sleeve of Necco wafers.

I liked the flavors and would try to eat them slowly, but usually ended up crunching through them.

In 2018 when the Necco company went bankrupt, I was traveling a bit for work and would buy bags full wherever I found them. It was a relief when the Spangler company bought the brand and resumed production.

Nice to see the KLR reference!

Beautiful shape and detail. I’d be honored.

That would be lovely, thanks.

Nice work

The ROI won’t be a step function, like the flick of a switch.

Glad to help!

They look great on you. Try adjusting the clamps’ “limiting” screws to make them more comfortable.

I’ve been replaying FO4 lately on console and so happy to have it now on PC to carry on trips.
