Three friends married women from different parts of the world……
The first man married a Greek girl. He told her that she was to do the dishes and house cleaning. It took a couple of days, but on the third day, he came home to see a clean house and dishes washed and put away.
The second man married a Thai. He gave his wife orders that she was to do all the cleaning, dishes and the cooking. The first day he didn’t see any results, but the next day he saw it was better. By the third day he saw that his house was clean, the dishes were done and there was a huge dinner on the table.
The third man married a girl from Canada. He ordered her to keep the house cleaned, dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot food on the table for every meal. He said the first day he didn’t see anything, the second day he didn’t see anything either but by the third day, some of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little bit out of his left eye and his arm was healed enough that he could fix himself a sandwich and load the dishwasher. He still has some difficulty when he pees……

Ya know how some married couples have an "Our Song" from their dating days?
Well, the Mrs. and I do, it's "Bony Fingers" and it was on one of those table-side juke boxes in a diner! A real, old-fashioned, railroad car-styled diner! Long gone, mores the pity...
The only ones I don't have clear memories of are 6, 8 and 12. I grew up on a farm, milk delivery wasn't available (6). We didn't go to movies until the 60's (8) and we had BB guns and .22s, not peashooters (12).

I am afraid that my wife is experiencing the first signs of dementia.
She says that she can not remember what she ever saw in me.

I remember that the truck that delivered the diapers was an electric-powered truck. I think that the batteries weighed more than the diapers. I don't remember them ever having headlights.
Remember? I thought that all of that stuff never went away. WTH happened!

I’m only 58 and remember 13 of the 17. I barely remember the milkman’s cream and maroon round nosed Coble Dairy step van. I think everyone in my family remembers the day our cat climbed up on the roof, dive bombed the milkman’s head and latched on. Like most real fights, it was pretty short but the screaming from both parties and the cussing and bleeding from the milkman was something a child of tender years probably shouldn’t witness. Good thing mom was a RN. She got the bleeding stopped and wounds cleaned and bandaged. There was a drop off / pick up spot on our 1/2 mile driveway a ways off from the house after that.
Many years later, I asked my father if the milkman asked for a settlement for the attack. He said that was either 1970 or 71. Back then, no amount of money was enough for a grown man to admit he got his ass kicked by a house cat, so they never spoke of it.

That needs to be Arkansas in that photo
We've been getting gully washers through multiple days in a row, with 1 or 2 days dry in a week

I would think the wettest place on earth would be an ocean or lake or something...
I clearly remember everything on the quiz. We also had a "bread Man" (Sunbeam) deliver bread and buns. Old Sam would take cinnamon bun orders during the week for Saturday delivery.
There were two different butcher shops that had trucks slowly travel through the streets in town. I think one only did Saturdays and the other had an additional day or two.
One day a week an old guy would park his station wagon at the firehouse and walk several streets shouting "P-R-E-T-Z-A-L-L-L-S" carrying a woven basket of soft pretzels for sale.
2 cents deposit on regular sized soft drink (that's "pawp" for our "Burg" members ) bottles and a nickle for quart bottles.
Pickup trucks heading to the Twin Kiss with kids piled in the back following baseball games.
Potato chips in waxed paper bags. We rode on the empty bags down a big sliding board to make it faster. Smaller kids often crashed afterward.
Riding bicycles all over creation on which the rider or a downhill road were the only means of propulsion. Of course the balloons or baseball cards in the spokes did help them go faster.

Did anybody else have those beads that go on the spokes that slide up and down? Good lord, those things were annoying. I didn't have them, but a lot of the girls had them.
I had baseball cards held in place by clothespins. I bet that's what happened to my Mickey Mantle card
