“Good & Plenty” is also the one of the worst candies ever
It’s pretty ambitious of anyone to try to satire Sheila J. Lee.
Wonder how she would feel about Leeches or Gravy Sucking Pigs?
Let’s call it what isn’t really is: Ill-gotten gain, legalized theft.
YOU said it! BLARK!!
It may be ambitious, since she is a protected species, but is SURE is easy. That miserable old cow.
Onslow .. LOL
You completely blew this one, John. I can’t find the punchline. :^(
(Did you get that ping I sent earlier RE the Boxer quote about Welfare?)
What?!? Blaspheme! I loved Choo-choo Charlie's treats. It made my parents think I was taking pills when I was a teen.
You're on my s***list now, Geron. >:^(
(j/k old buddy)
Goes double for you! Bleh!!!
Huh??
The uncle of my former wife was the inventor of Good and Plenty. In the old days it was very good. Haven’t had any in years. Made with real ingredients, it was.
Also went to school with the son of the inventor of Bonnamo’s Turkish Taffy.
And speaking of candy, my neighbor/friend and family were the owners of Mary Sue Candies (esp. their creamy Easter Eggs). One brother was actually named “Candy”. Larry was the other, and a good crosscountry runner at Baltimore City College High School.
We lived in “sweet” times back then.
And then there was a girl named “Candy”. Talk about a “sweet” looking thing. I wish she had been another story for another day, but nothing happened.
But there was “Cookie”. Beautiful, blond, nice figure ***. Later turned out to be a “stale cookie”. What a shame.
Also,there was also another “Cookie”. Tall, pretty, slim ***. Almost forgot about her. Had potential but distance killed that relationship (that’s my story and I’m sticking to it).
Wow, what a memory trip I just had, back to the early 60’s. Now, if I only had photos to show you. Sorry. Will try to do better in my next life (will carry a photophone then).
Meanwhile, back in reality, my granddaughter called and I told her where I left her some new “Star War” cards. Now she is one happy kid. “Happy, Happy, Happy”.
May the force be with you all!
Here is an article section 8 term for it: piracy.
Indeed it is, and John may have met his match on this one. Acorn-Head is really difficult to outflank, as it were.
(I've been an avid reader of his since wayyyy before the FR days, on pulp. He's as good as they come.)
