Keeping a night light on over here, but sliding over to BlueSky (CoachFoster) and Threads (mfosterftw)...

I was today years old when I discovered that Gerald Ford in 1947 was GM of the Grand Rapids Rangers of the Professional Basketball League of America...

Still need to make it up the road for a game... bbc.com/sport/football…

@peet2 I've not been to Chalk Lane, so I'm not sure what they yell... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@LoneStarCanary Come on you cocks?

here ya' go - #UpTheButts (link in comments)

Scene in Dallas, 1976. Classic, eh? Which would you rather have? Taken by the great Lee Friedlander.

@SkyPixWeather My brother is up to 17 pinball tables, mostly Gottlieb EMs from the 70s. I keep asking when is he going to run out of room, because he's got about 100 on his wish list.

Hell yeah! This way, when I’m a shriveled up old prune who can’t remember the difference between a wall cloud and a whitewall tire, I’ll still be destroying whatever high score exists on fast-speed Pac-Man. 😉

@ScottyWegs9 Aye, but didn't your car get absolutely hammered one time down here, or am I misremembering?!??

@LoneStarCanary not as often here, but we still get it!

Milwaukee has one perfect day - it's like 80 and breezy... and this is the reaction?!?!? people are wild. gimme every day like this and hotter. Back to 60s and cloudy again. ughhhh

@ScottyWegs9 LOL... I look forward to your response the next time Milwaukee has a hailstorm...

@LoneStarCanary ha, i've always loved the heat and hated the cold!!! but the 100 straight 100 degrees and humid did toughen me even more!

@TracesofTexas Once in Falfurrias 40 years ago he acquired two of those same OK used cars still in their original wooden shipping crates. The sides were printed with some really creative warnings about their fragility, including "NO FOOLING" and "BREAK THIS AND YOU'LL PAY!!!" So wish I had pics

@TracesofTexas I'm loving all the neon in the picture. My dad was with corporate Chevy for 30+ years, but as a side gig would go into old GM dealerships and pick through the NOS parts for classic car restorations. Occasionally he'd collect the neon and other marketing effects.

Salesmen (I'm guessing) dressed to the nines at Knapp Cheverolet in Houston. As a lover of this period of men's clothing ---- particularly the ties ----- I love this photo! On the one hand I think "man, I'd be styling as a photographer if I dressed like that." Then on the other hand I think, "but Lordy, you would so hot and so uncomfortable! Maybe T-shirts are better." But that tie on the man on the right? Let's just say I have tie envy.

@BrandonEffDub Just needs a longer... ummm, whatever you call it.

Can we get my man a normal sized mic here?

@AzleBoysSoccer @azleisd @azleathletics It's actual the 4th annual derby, but who's counting?

Make plans to come support your team for the second annual Azle City Derby. Azle Junior High vs Forte Junior High Date: May 14 Time: 5:00 & 6:15 Location: Azle High School @azleisd @azleathletics

@SkyPixWeather Or a JP. IIRC, 30-40 years ago Roanoke had a JP office in a strip along 377 a few blocks north of Babes.

A bad country song all in one shopping center! If only it had a bait and tackle store and the town jail! 😆

@TracesofTexas Goddamn Army Jeep...

Whoever said that Amarillo is a one-horse town? World War II brought gasoline and rubber rationing to Texas. That might have impacted commerce in some other places, but Amarilloans just shrugged their shoulders, got on their horses, went to town, and tied them up to parking meters. This was actually taken on Route 66 in Amarillo. I'm guessing that Bobby Troup, who wrote the famous "Get Your Kicks on Route 66" probably never pondered this scenario. 😉

@HarbourGull @NYCanaries @NorwichCityFC A pox upon your house, sir.

@LoneStarCanary @NYCanaries @NorwichCityFC No that has to go in the mix .

Get on it @NorwichCityFC

@CGoreham That's SIX years if he's a senator... #YesPlease

It's my understanding that when an American wins a public vote it means a four-year term. Four more years! Four more years!
