Is there anything you own you really like that’s not made anymore?

I have three sets, Classic Jarts, Hasbro Javelin Jarts and the ones shown here, My favorite, Regent Slider Jarts.

 

We have three or four competitive games each year with a group of guys. Best yard game ever and not at all dangerous if you have reasonable adults playing.

Do you have to designate a Rangemaster?

 

?

Maybe you could get some coal delivered next week?  The Ice Box is really nice though!

Had one of those in ROTC.  Got my thumb stuck in it, never liked it after that.

If you operate the rifle correctly, you'll never get your thumb stuck in the action.

Cleary Canadian drinks.  I don't believe they sell them in the US anymore so you have to order them from Amazon or Ebay...prices are jacked up.

 

A damn 4 pack is $32.00.  This is probably my favorite drink of all time.

Loved the cherry. When I was a kid my dad would always get me one when we stopped for gas on the way to Sabres games.

Yeah, I've seen both of those. Gridiron Champions seems like a scam at this point or at least they've made little to no progress towards actually making a game. I think NCAA 14 looked better than Maximum Football 2018 did; we'll see with 2019 but I don't have much faith. Either way it wouldn't be a licensed college game but if it's good enough, I wouldn't care that much.

The cherry was the best.   They used to sell them in Georgia at most gas stations down here.  My friends and I would ride our bikes almost daily to get one of these.

They were like $.80 for a bottle.  Now they're $8.00 a bottle!

I got lucky and bough these old dressers online from an auction. I got the 2 for like $200. After researching them I realized they are actually probably worth in the thousands. But I'll never sell them, they are gorgeous and so well made. Crazy what a difference quality craftsmanship makes.

 

Lane Altavista is the company that made them which is no longer around. Mine are from 1984.

The irony of finding a VHS tape of something called "Things that aren't there anymore" is fascinating in and of itself. 

 

Got a player and dozens of tapes   (non porn for you smartasses)

 

 

those would be on 8mm

Friend of mine had a Jart go through his hand...worst part is, he can no longer eat M&Ms.

I bought my buddy's for $25 when he upgraded.  I was using it for music when I was traveling more.  I'm not a fan of putting music on my phone, so I enjoy keeping the music on a separate device.   I haven't used it in a couple years, but it's still around.

I keep both a classic and my older nano (2gb - maxed out at 300 songs) in my car, plugged into the aux.  I use them for road trips.  The nano for music and the classic for podcasts (only because I cant bother to take the time to move the music from the nano over to the classic).

 

 

Edit:  I miss jalapeno Fritos.

I don't own it any more because we used them all up, but Trader Joe's made a thai green curry simmer sauce that was amazing.  I guess they didn't think it was authentic enough so they reformulated it and the new sauce is nothing special.

Still sold in Canada if you're up for a Bills game, just jump across the border to a 7-Eleven or Sorbey's.
