I HAVE to have fun, politics aren't - isn't - ain't fun! Tense quandry there.
Love the license plate you made me and will put it on my profile page!
Aerospace Commission? Am I spaced out?

Aerospace was the best of the Texas graphics license plates I found
I tried several others first

Grapes of Wrath, a classic for today? No. But then I have never been impressed with Commie writers.

I was teasing about the Aerospace bit, as you knew, lol. That’s something I’ve never looked up - license plates.

The depression is the reason my grandmother insisted my wife learn to can, so we would always be able to eat. While kids (generally) never listen to their parents... I vividly remember my Father's account of spending his nights, between two dirty mattresses in an abandoned real estate sales shack, prior to re-enlisting in the US Navy in 1938....
That and numerous memories of other relatives' accounts of the 30's formed the basis of my economic pathway over the years!
Unfortunately, the benign historical legacy of our current parents (self included) has failed to provide a reference for what our prodigy face today...

Yeah, I was taught if you can’t pay cash for it, you can’t afford it.
Remember talking to a WWII vet several years ago. I was bellyaching about how spoiled my kids were and that I really had to take the blame. He said no, it was his generations fault. They came back from the war and were determined to not have their children deal with the same hardships they had to. We only followed their lead.

My Parent’s retired in the late Eighties, sold their house and rented an Apartment in Southern California for a while.
Their landlord was the actress that played the preteen daughter in the movie. Nice lady. She had many other movie roles, but that was her most famous one.
It is a small world.

Did you ever read The Jungle in school? Had to do a book report on that. The book gave me nightmares. Dinner was never the same. LOL

Well, we're not being thrown off our farms - and California's not going to be a destination for anyone. Other than that...
