Close to Home by John McPherson for April 12, 2021

Back in the day with pumps the had on off handle on the side. After filling up i would turn the pump off then squeeze the handle and let the last little bit dribble into the tank.

Isn’t of getting squeezed at the pump they do the squeezing? Good strategy

Talk about sponging….

Actually, that looks like fun. …pathetic, me.

Shake every last drop into the tank. Norman Stansfield voice EVERYONE!!!

Time for some more wisdom from Ol’ Grampa…

When I was a little guy, I wanted to ask my Grampa a question, and he was at the age where his memory was a little fuzzy, and I was at the age where I pretty much never knew what I was asking when I did it, but did it anyway, so I said:

“Grampa, can I ask you a question?”

Ol’ Grampa said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, but I’ll give it my best shot… ask away!”

I said: “um, if your memory is not so good, then how do you and Grandma always get along so good?”

He said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, so I guess I’ve forgotten some of the things we’ve done throughout the years that made our life together good…

… and heck, there were so many things that it would be hard to put a number to ‘em…

… which made it hard to keep track of ‘em…

… so, I’d have to say the most important thing is that I remembered not to forget ‘em! Now… go ahead and ask your question!”

I said: “um, I think I already asked it!”

He said: “Well, my memory’s not so good, did I answer it?”

I said: “I don’t know… now I don’t remember!”

The dude is totally creeping looking -like he escaped from a Goonies movie!

No Bleeb, Argor, or Dalcon today, but if you look closely at the bottom right of the yellow paint, you can see two antennas, I wonder who that might be

We used to tell the attendant to “drain the hose” to get every last drop.

It’s a Bleebless Monday. :(

Thank you bought Biden,

I couldn’t find Bleeb. Perhaps Dalcon “offed him” yesterday?
