Simply random stuff

I was emptying the trunk of my car of my purchases when I found a box I didn't remember buying.

There was one line on the box, "SNOOdS 009". I thought "What are snoods?" "009?" "Spy snoods???" "Lowercase 'd'??"

Then I suddenly realized what it was.

That reminds me of the old "710 Cap" joke....

An album cover I designed, I just don't have a title or an artist.

Ive had the same wallet for many many years. The spot that once held the 'fun packs' is still in use today----------

Just returned from a 5 day marathon, er, family vacation at Disney World. Really had a great time. Six adults, four kids. We stayed at an off campus Disney resort called Pop Century. It has multiple buildings dedicated to a particular decade. Of course we stayed at 70's building. Largely because of this:

Sadly as you can see, not quad. The player for this was nowhere to be found.

I love the magnetic tape sticking out of the top. Any of the youngsters ask what this thing was?

Nothing screams "The70's" like the 8-track. LOL

Nah, no reaction from the kidlings. It's like they are used to walking by gigantic 8 track carts everyday.

Hope the weather was good for you it's been a bit cooler than normal for us.

Can't complain for January. It's been above average since Jan 1st. What more can you ask?

Yeah I've been reading about lizards falling from trees & the orange crops. But it's warm compared to Jan in Kansas. Checking weather at home everyday I'd see 25>32 deg, freezing drizzle, chance of snow. Mean while in Orlando it was generally mid-60's in the morning, low 80's in the afternoon. Warm in the sun cool in the shade with a nice breeze everyday. Perfect for park exploration.

I was at Disneyland the 2nd year it opened at 6 years old. Admission $1 adults 50 cent for kids. I still remember much about it. Went back multiple times growing up my dad really liked California.

With 2 daughters of my own we went to Disney World several times. Sometimes combined with a Disney cruise. It's been at least a dozen years since I was there. Except for the $$ any and all changes made I think were for the better.

A snowier-than-average January in Colorado for our recent ski trip...and that's what we got!

Another random question.

Somewhere in my DVD collection, I have a movie about World War II that contains the following lines:

"You captured six German soldiers with your what?"
"With my mine detector."

I have been going through my movies with no luck. And a website for finding movie lines gave me a movie title I don't have.

I was hoping someone knew this.
