Captain Leighton has the con
After the time-honored tradition of... BABY'S FIRST STREAK! Got him ready to get in the tub & he tore off across the floor toward the bathroom. So proud. His very first attempt at streaking...

RIP: Robo-Cooler
A sad day. Robo-Cooler in his hearse. I assume a military procession is assembling & a riderless black horse will lead him to his final resting place. You served us well, dear friend... may flights of icy-cold angels wing you to your rest in The Great Cooler in the Sky.

A Toast (circa 1937)
I give you a man dedicated to the good things of life, to the gentle, the heartfelt things, to good living, and to the kindly rites with which it is surrounded. In all the clash of a plangent world he holds firm to his ideal - a gracious existence in that country of content "where slower clocks strike happier hours". He stands in spirit on a tall-columned veranda, a hospitable glass in his hand, and he looks over the good and fertile earth, over ripening fields, over meadows of rippling blue grass. The rounded note of a horn floats through the fragrant stillness. Afar, the sleek and shining flanks of a thoroughbred catch the bright sun. The broad door, open wide with welcome... the slow, soft-spoken word... the familiar step of friendship... all this is his life and it is good. He brings fair judgment to sterner things. He is proud in the traditions of his country, in ways that are settled and true.
In a trying world darkened by hate and misunderstanding, he is a symbol of those virtues in which men find gallant faith and of the good men might distill from life. Here he stands then. In the finest sense, an epicure... a patriot... a man. Gentlemen, I give you the Kentucky Colonel.
hmm...
for the event, far off in the future, that we move to the suburbs... these 2 license plates are available...
