Looks like I may have to wait a few more months for my new Taycan.

Here is an early black & white linen postcard of "Butler's Grill - Highway 66 - Pacific, Missouri" and DX station. With homemade chili & Hires root beer.

"February 8, 1954 – The Pacific, Missouri Transcript reported that two “colored girls in a new Cadillac” had stopped at Butler’s Grill and left a purse behind containing $1,000 in bonds, $600 in traveler's checks, and $120 in cash. The purse belonged to none other than entertainer Pearl Bailey, who returned and gave Mrs. Butler a $50 reward."

Platoro, Colorado had an initial boom starting in 1888 which only lasted a few years and resulted in a town of around 300 people. A second excitement in 1913 brought Platoro back to life, but was short-lived and the town was abandoned by the end of the decade.

The Malamute Saloon, shown here in 1933, was designed to look like a log cabin attached to a giant bottle, a visual joke alluding to the recent end of Prohibition. Source: LAPL The Malamute Saloon, is reported to be the first legal bar to open in Los Angeles after prohibition repeal.

There's men that somehow just grip your eyes, and hold them hard like a spell;
And such was he, and he looked to me like a man who had lived in hell;
With a face most hair, and the dreary stare of a dog whose day is done,
As he watered the green stuff in his glass, and the drops fell one by one.
Then I got to figgering who he was, and wondering what he'd do,
And I turned my head — and there watching him was the lady that's known as Lou.

One break, coming up.



I saw hardly any concerts when I was young. I wish I'd seen more. I'd love to have seen these guys. While I do like Van Hagar, I prefer Van Halen, and there's just no way that I could have seen them.









Howard the duck? That would creep me out.
