Did you ever beat Tyson on Mike Tysons punch out??

 

I got there plenty of times as a kid and even as a teenager and never could do it.. I kind of want to go back now as a full-blown adult and see if I could beat iron Mike

Hell I couldn't get past Mr. Sandman.

Why do they “leave the light in for you”, then show you a room in the dark?  🤷‍♂️

 

I think I know……..do not bring a black light to your room.

The Office episode where Michael and Dwight shared a room and flicked on the black light scarred me. Honestly, up to that point, I had never really gave it much thought. Pretty much since it’s been VRBO, Bn’B’s and no pets allowed places whenever possible.

I would imagine a black light in a Motel 6 room would look like this.

I worked at Wendy’s back in the day, and they started you out on salad bar and dining room. I would re-stock that salad bar all day to keep it fresh and pristine,

and maybe only 3 or 4 people would order it!

Back during the late 70s oil embargo, Gas was cheaper in  Canada than the USA. One time drove to Ft. Erie to fill up. At the border when the guy asked where you were going, just said "To buy gas."

 

It's hard for younger people today to imagine how easy it was to travel back and forth between Canada and the US back then.  We took crossing an international border without a second thought.  A bunch of us would go to Ft Erie a couple of times a month for Chinese food at Happy Jack's, which is still on Niagara Blvd a half century later BTW.  People went for gas.  They went to play bingo.  They went camping at Sherkston.   Some Buffalonians owned cottages around Ft Erie and along Lake Erie towards Crystal Beach.  School kids went on field trips to the attractions in Niagara Falls, ON or to the Toronto Zoo or the Ontario Science Center.   Kids from the West Side of Buffalo would ride their bikes across the Peace Bridge to fish.

 

A friend and I went on a vacation in the Thousand Islands/Adirondaks back in the 1970s, and we drove across a totally unguarded/unmanned border crossing somewhere between Massena (we stopped to see the locks) and Plattsburgh.   There was a little building like a toll booth with a couple windows and a door and a sign that said something like "Welcome to Quebec/Bienvenue Quebec".    Not a soul around but us, so we went through.

One of the funniest things I remember from starting high school…. We had those icebreakers where you say what your favorite movie was.  This one guy Shawn straight up mentioned this one which still makes me laugh today.

 

Yeah she and Pam were the it blonde girls for kids of the 90s
