The cheapest I remember gas is 19.9 cents a gallon. My dad would drive all the way across town to buy it at a Billups...Fill up with Billups was the tag line

At one point, I had one of those huge Texaco Tanker Truck toys they used to sell.

Man, I'm green. You know now I wish I had gotten all that stuff and saved it in the original package. I'd be a millionaire right now. I think there was a twilight zone thing about that one time.

Notice the 32.9 cents a gallon gas. 

I'm thinking this was late 60s maybe.

Anyway I had one of these kinda. This one doesn't look exactly like the one I had, but it's close

Also had one of these until mom decided to run over it with the car..... Loved how it would send up puffs of smoke as it rolled around.

Woe is me, I only had the dull, original gray/silver one, although I loved it.  It's still somewhere in one of my junk boxes, along with my portable CD player!  They were always useful props, along with my original early 1970s-era electronic calculator (2-3 times the thickness of my current mobile phone), for illustrating technological change to my students.

I had a portable cd player I would take roller skating around 95 zI think? When did Phillip Candeloro compete in the Olympics? It was that year. I did a jump and the damn thing came off my waistband…that was the end of my portable cd player

Roller skating. I had a pair of roller blades, got knocked down by a huge crack in the bike path & tore the palm of my hand off…well, it was pretty well scraped to shit & hurt like hell. The blades got tossed out that week. It was fairly impossible to knock me down on roller skates. I was solid on those

Barbara Pepper is best-known to TV viewers as the first "Mrs. Doris Ziffel" on Green Acres.  Whoever did her  makeup and hair in the photo on the right was going for the Jean Harlow look - arched eyebrows, heavy lashes etc.

Her husband Craig Reynolds (on the left) died in a motorcycle crash in 1949 after only six years of marriage.

Understandably, Barbara took his death hard, took to drink and put on weight.  With the weight gain, glamour roles were out, but she had two sons to raise.  Lifelong friend Lucille Ball (they started out in movies together in the early 1930's) provided Barbara with supporting roles in the years following Craig's death.

She found steady work on Green Acres from 1965 to 1968, until heart ailments forced her to retire; she died in 1969 at age 54.

Barbara is in the first few minutes of A Child is Waiting.  It's a grim/realistic film about Institutionalized Special Needs children. Barbara, Judy and Burt play employees at the institution. Judy becomes emotionally attached to the kids, Burt and other employees warn her not to get too involved emotionally.  Watch it if you want to see Judy ACT, with no singing or musical numbers to dance through. 

Knowing what the movie was about, I nonetheless started laughing out loud at the sight of "Doris Ziffel".  Couldn't help it.

I had a friend that was on the rollerblade team for about 6 months. He was a poor little rich kid that got these ideas in his head and his parents would move heaven and earth to let him have what he wanted. He thought it would be cool so they spent a fortune in custom made rollerblades and professional lessons. He even went to some sort of rollerblade school somewhere in the Midwest. So anyway he qualified. When it became work, he quit. I think the next thing he wanted to do was the jet ski thing. He always had very expense habits.

I was ROLLING when I came across this one. It was in an article about how the writer was describing how the congregation in the church she went to sounded exactly like the Borg.

It was because of Lemon Up shampoo (I thought the bottle was cool so I tried it) that totally fried my hair because I was working as a lifeguard at the time and was out in the sun all day and in chlorinated water... that my hair became fried beyond redemption and I had to get a crew cut and start over... I also started going to a good hairstylist and buying better hair care products.

OMG, I completely forgot about that but I never used it. I used to bleach the shit out of my hair when I was in a  rock band, stripped it totally white but honestly, it was never in better condition because I was constantly using protein packs since the bleach was harsh-coming up from dark brown to white is really damaging. I babied the hell out of my hair...it's my anti-anxiety meds that helped ruin it. Ativan has a side effect of hair loss but it was either that or I was in serious trouble. Off that now and been on Valium for the past 8 years.

That is a cool bottle tho!

My sister had the same experience. She had long very straight very thick blond hair. This stuff was totally harsh.

A neighbor's daughter convinced her mom to frost her hair back in the 70s.  If done properly, the results would've looked bad enough, but she got what she paid for.  Her mom was a wonderful woman, but she knew less than nothing about frosting hair.  The result made her hair look like a series of connected skunk tails.  Kind of like the stripes on the broad below, but on a Dorothy Hamill haircut.

DO YOU REMEMBER?

Flash Gordon

flash-gordon-gold-foil-matt-ferguson-vice-press-poster.thumb.jpg.c356c9da20caa20c4c9763cbaed29208.jpg

Costumes for the 1980 space opera film were designed by Italian Danilo Donati, who in addition to being a production designer, won the Academy Award for Best Costume twice (first for Romeo and Juliet in 1968 and Felini’s Cassanova in 1976).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I have this poster from when the movie originally came out, along with Jaws and a lot of other A-list and B & Z-list movies (some of which are now cult classics).  I don't believe I even saw the movie, I liked the design/graphics and knew it'd be worth saving for the future.  Not selling them ever if I can help it!  Rarely go to movie theatres anymore, even pre-COVID.  Last time I went I made a point of looking at the ads displayed.  Paper posters and photos seem to be gone now, replaced by a display called the "movie poster light box".
