1985/6, one of my buddys step father had a 75-76 Olds 442 that had swivel buckets. I was 15/16. It seemed weird to me then, and seems just as weird now.

I'm pretty sure it was like this one, but with a white interior.

Pepsi was first invented in 1893 as "Brad's Drink" by Caleb Bradham, who sold the drink at his drugstore in New Bern, North Carolina.
It was renamed Pepsi-Cola in 1898, "Pepsi" because it was advertised to relieve dyspepsia (indigestion) and "Cola" referring to the cola flavor. Some have also suggested that "Pepsi" may have been a reference to the drink aiding digestion like the digestive enzyme pepsin, but pepsin itself was never used as an ingredient to Pepsi-Cola.
The original recipe also included sugar and vanilla. Bradham sought to create a fountain drink that was appealing and would aid in digestion and boost energy.
In 1903, Bradham moved the bottling of Pepsi from his drugstore to a rented warehouse, and the Pepsi Cola company was formed on June 16th. That year, Bradham sold 7,968 gallons of syrup. The next year, Pepsi was sold in six-ounce bottles, and sales increased to 19,848 gallons.

Coca-Cola had the opportunity to buy Pepsi early on, but didn't think it was a threat, the price was not a lot either. Big mistake.

Hypersonic Nose Gear Deployment.
Forty six years ago the fabled North American X-15 hit a speed of 3,590 mph (Mach 5.23) in a flight that reached an altitude of 103,300 feet. While decelerating through Mach 4.2, the nose gear of the aircraft unexpectedly deployed in flight. The 114th powered flight of the legendary X-15 Program took place on Friday, 14 August 1964. USAF Major Robert A. Rushworth was at the controls of X-15 Ship No. 2 (S/N 56-6671). The mission would be Rushworth’s 22nd flight in the famed hypersonic aircraft. X-15 drop from the NB-52A (S/N 52-0003) launch aircraft took place over Delamar Dry Lake, Nevada. Seconds later, Rushworth called for 100% power from the X-15’s XLR-99 liquid-fueled rocket engine as he pulled into a steep climb. He subsequently pushed-over and then leveled-off at 103,300 feet. As the Mach meter needle passed through Mach 4.2, Rushworth heard a loud bang from the airframe. As Rushworth neared Edwards Air Force Base, chase aircraft caught up with him and confirmed that the nose gear was indeed down and locked. Further, the tires were so scorched from aerodynamic heating that they probably would disintegrate during touchdown on Rogers Dry Lake. They verily did. Despite his tireless nose gear, Rushworth was able to control the rollout of his aircraft fairly well on the playa silt. He brought the X-15 to a stop and deplaned. Man and machine had survived to fly another day.

Captured in 1936 near the Tennessee River, this poignant image shows a Depression-era mother in a flour sack dress, cradling her baby. They were part of a large family of nine, living in a field along U.S. Route 70. This photo reminds us of the resilience and hardships faced during that challenging time in American history. It's a powerful testament to the strength and determination of families who persevered through economic turmoil. Let's honor their legacy by remembering the resilience of those who came before us
