Those days are long gone.
In order to get an "A" in gym we had to do it with our legs held out straight in front of us. Arms only!

Anyone else do the Peg Wall?

Michigan, 1940.
This picture was taken in Berrien County, Michigan in July of 1940 and shows a one bedroom home that was rented by a family of seven for $1.75 per week. This particular family made their living working as farm hands wherever they could find work. Many of the larger farms had living quarters like this that could be rented to migrant workers.

And why many couples had kids. I was the remote when I was growing up. I heard "Glen, change the channel" many times.

But they’ve both hit 100 officially.

Having lived in Fairbanks I’ve seen many thermometers over 100

What gets me is this place in Siberia

Verkhoyansk holds the record for the hottest temperature ever recorded north of the Arctic Circle, with 38.0 °C (100.4 °F), and it also holds the record for the coldest temperature ever recorded in Asia, −67.8 °C (−90.0 °F). The cold record is shared with Oymyakon.
