You can park all you want at the end of the driveway, I am a half mile in. lol
We do Wine Wednesdays here.
It would help if we had a longer driveway. That reminds me, I need to go move a car. The Upnorth People on our west side always put their trash bins next to our house, even though they have plenty of frontage on the other side of their driveway. Also, they chopped up my wisteria where it was growing over their fence.
I would be a much better neighbor....
Big deal! We had to do all that plus wash all the windows at the teachers house during a blizzard on the way home....
= = = = = = = = =
IN ADDITION to all that, we had to dig the cattle out of the snow, herd them into the barn, walk the 2 miles to a paved road to wait for a bus that may or may not come, if it does there are several stops along the way to for US to dig the bus out and if the driver was extra generous we would get to dig other cars out along the route.
Then get to huddle around the pot bellied stove and go through the same thing on the way home WHERE some chores were awaiting us...
AND this was in da Bronx NYC
ALL youse guys had it soft.
Where I used to live the same thing is happening. It will have the same result.
No shoes for school? Do they have cell phones?
You are one of the few who get this.
I would expand the group from poor whites to all whites, though, as it is part of the Elite agenda to weaken Western Civilization and by necessity, white people's sense of culture, history, and unity.
It becomes clearer by the day that the Elites cannot win until they destroy white people as a force on this planet.
The wisteria will be back, and it will outlast the Upnorth People.
you’re lucky, you had teachers- We had to teach ourselves- i would have loved to wash the teacher’s windows IF we had had a teacher
you guys had cars? Wow- you’re lucky- We only had bikes with square tires- the round wheel hadn’t been invented yet
hmmm
Bikes were jocks.
Also unheard of at first. FB face bar was a 1 bar attached to helmet ‘protecting’ nose. BB batting helmet was two pieces of plastic over ears, held together with a couple of ‘elastic’ bands across the top.
They were introduced WHILE I was already playing and didn’t like either.
ALso left gloves on field so OTHER team could use - HARDLY EVER did because it wasn’t ‘cool’ to borrow a glove.
Best part of winter was the snow gathered at the ‘bottom’ where the road curved AND we had to tunnel under the drifts to walk the half mile or so to catch the bus. IF it came, no early warning, school was open .
Ah, the ‘good’ old days...
Seems the Brits are screwing up ... maybe giving up the best of Western Civilization for fashionable PC BS was a bad trade.
We had to trudge through a yard or more of shag carpet to change the television station without a remote!
lol- good old shag carpeting-
Thank you! Dalrymple is one of my favorite writers and City journal is a great place to read Conservative writers.
