   I did work a place where we got 45 unpaid minutes for lunch. Always thought that was odd. Too long for lunch, not long enough to get anything done. I usually just took 30 so I would get paid for the 15 minutes.

   My folks sent the same valentine back and forth for 50 years. the one who received it would send it the next year – unless the other one found where it was hidden. After 50 years they retired it. 72 years they were married.

   I remember WAY back in high school (in the 70’s) one of my friends saw a ketchup packet on the sidewalk outside the cafeteria nd stomped it. Only half of it was under his foot and the other half turned up and shot the contents up the inside of his pants leg. If only I could remember the important stuff from school. ;)

   I watched part of an episode once I think. Or maybe it was a commercial for it. I’m not sure. ;)

   Pretty greasy, at least the ones around here are, and spoil quickly. Not the best eatin’ fish but beat nothing. Some ethnic groups do especially like them however.

   “Get up old Sal we passed that lock, 15 miles on the Erie Canal” We had no idea what we were singing about in elementary music class in the late 60’s in the Ozarks but I still remember some of the songs. And yes, I know the Erie Canal is in NY, not Penn. (wow, even reverting to old abbreviations I am). ;)

    Almost 40 years ago I got mad at the boss where I was working so I went into the warehouse and punched a box. After I hit it was when I read the label “Jones Cast Iron”. It was full of CI plumbing fittings. Weather is cold today and the knuckles on my right hand are reminding me that you should not let your anger take control.
