SNIP

A Beatles cassette tape that was checked out of the San Antonio Public Library 44 years ago was finally returned this month, officials said.

The tape, a recording of an interview with Beatles members John Lennon and Paul McCartney, was recently left anonymously in a book return drop box, SAPL said in a Facebook post.

“Have you ever checked out an item from SAPL and never had a chance to return it?” The library posted on Nov. 20. “Can you believe this recording of The Beatles was checked out from Westfall Branch Library 44 years ago and returned to us recently?”

“But did they rewind it?”

Nope doesn’t look like it. I am pretty sure the take up would be clockwise on the left wheel.

So, a guy is cleaning out the attic of an old house he just bought and finds a 40 year old shoe repair ticket. And what’s amazing is the place is still in business. So he thinks it will be funny to go there and “play dumb” and try to reclaim the shoes.

He goes to the shop, hands the very old guy that runs the place the ticket. The guy goes into the back room for about a half hour and finally comes back out. He hands the ticket back and says, “they’ll be ready the day after tomorrow.”

I have seen that kind of stuff happen before. :)

Had an old friend tell me on the phone the other day that the tire I sold him about 45 years ago finally got a flat. Asked me if I still warrantied free flat repairs. Told him sure... And I still have the match to it I ordered with that one if he finally wanted to buy that one too. lol
