The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

BB-64, the Wisconsin, collided with something or another on sea drills in the early 50's and fucked the bow proper. We had started the Kentucky but had cancelled the contract, but we had a hull. They cut the bow off'n it and welded it onto the Wisconsin to unfuck it all.

Fast battleship fast trivia.
Aloha matey’s! All day travel fest from Cali-Porn-Ya…Delta WiFi sucks. Missed most of the big game last night due to Delta cheap’n out on the WiFi’s…I had crystal clear TeeVee and texting w SWMBO high above the Pacific on one of their competitors. They need to be clued in we live in a WiFi world now…

Will be attempting a catch up today, but not sure if I’ll succeed. Looks like work was done while I was half paying attention. Way to go @Missk_2022 at Stud finding. I’d like to add…we knew you’d have no problem. Look at all the Studs you found here! 😂 hahahahahaha!

OK…more Battleship trivia…

The U.S.S Iowa (BB-61) was recommissioned in 1984. She needed parts and well…they just don’t make Battleship pieces parts any no more. So the Thinker Bees in DeeCee knew of a certain BattleBoat on display in NC…the U.S.S. North Carolina (BB-55,) the “ShowBoat”. They came down, found said pieces parts and the Iowa was soon launching 16” shells the size of VW Beetles into Beirut.

Off to catch up a bit and sneak out and do some things need do’n…

52 years ago today, January 18, 1974, The Six Million Dollar Man premiered as a weekly television series on ABC.

Based on Martin Caidin’s novel Cyborg (the show’s original working title), the concept was first introduced through three TV movies in 1973 before becoming a full-fledged series. The regular series aired on ABC for five seasons, from January 18, 1974, to March 6, 1978.

The show starred Lee Majors as astronaut Steve Austin, who is rebuilt with bionic enhancements after a near-fatal crash, turning him into a government agent with superhuman strength, speed, and vision. Majors quickly became one of the biggest pop culture icons of the 1970s.

We can rebuild him….
Us boys ran around the neighborhood playing and any jump or feat of strength was accompanied by Da-na-na-na-na-na!😂

Loved loved loved that show!

Da-na-na-na-na-na!!! I ran in slow motion for the fitness test in 7th grade. I had forgotten about that.
My friend and I blew up all or GI-Joe's and the jeeps and stuff that came with it with fireworks. All inspired by the A-Team. One ended up on the second story roof, then washed into the gutter. I wonder who had to fish that out? I know it was still in there when my parent's sold the house.
 
Pele doesn't like it! She'll smite you for taking her rocks!

That said, Pele apparently stays in Hawaii. There's no shortage of lava rock around Mt. St. Helen.
Well now…you’ve just given me an Ide’re for a new cottage industry…

Instead of Tiki idols, we could carve up some St Helen’s lava rock into “Bigfoot Tiki’s” 🤔

Whatcha think?

Hope temps have warmed up a bit for folks
@dkak001 - sorry... snow's gonna 🌨️
What's everyone else up to so far today?
Sorry, I assume this is more sports ball i dont pay attention too
Yep - me neither... if I'm lucky, I know which sport is being discussed :ROFLMAO:
Same with some other subjects. But I like the enthusiasm. :)
Picked up flu so unlike me it looks like a couple of days in bed
Oh, no! Feel better soon. Lots of nasty bugs out there!! 🧫
Did I ever post the picture of the littlest goat in Bo's bucket?
If you did, I missed it... 🤷‍♀️
No, but I’d love to see the picture of that goat!
Validation! It wasn't just me. :LOL:
But use water - don't waste good coffee on this 😂
I remember my mother boiling water to preheat my stepfather's travel mug so it wouldn't cool down the coffee and to help keep the coffee hot.
I thought this was SOP for using a thermos?
Granted, they're not all made alike.
But the instructions for my Thermos Stainless King:
1 ) Wash before use
2) Pre-heat/Pre-cool for maximum effectiveness
I am like eeyore today

Shave
Shower
Sustenance
Sex
Sleep


Not necessarily in that order...
Is that The S-Plan? 😉
WOW!
I used to LOVE the hardness of winter, but after 25+ years in the moderate GOM weather, it seems like I'm unable to get acclimated to the cold.
sounds about right :unsure:
1768936815480.png
That's better than being like the Tasmanian Devil!
:unsure: IDK - a little shake-up now and then keeps things fresh, don't you think?
Freezing half to death
hat and scarf with something warm to drink... and make sure your toes are warm! 🫂 Hope you warm up soon!!
Oh she is in hiding....

The cold is really making my knees hurt. I also feel like my eyes are made of sand, unrelated to the cold
Have you tried a warm compress on your eyes?
I was stuck in a smoke house yesterday
The asshole?
Figures

Ventilation!

And, which laser? I'm pondering, something like that...
Agree - ventilate the 🤬 out of that workshop!! Yikes!!
This morning it was 1. The winds brought it down to -10. This is not right is it?
Pretty on-brand for this time of year here.
Around week 3 of January we tend to get a few days or a week with temps in the -20sF and wind chills in the -40sF... and we're headed into that now. 🥶
Wow...I used to watch that show when I was much younger. It is still a great classic too!
It’s one of my favorites!
I don't think this generation would get it. Many of the words are not even in their vocabulary.
Jocularity! Jocularity!
