the post on milk wells reminded me of things no
longer heard about. here's some from alabama.
unheated bedrooms, taking a bath in a washtub,
non-homogenized milk, heated brick placed under
covers at foot of bed, block ice manufacturing
plant, hot patch inter-tube repair, car bumper
jack, deep well on a kitchen stove, cloth
flour/feed sacks, playing mumble pegs or stretch
with a pocket knife, rubber band gun fights, bb
gun fights, individual bicycle parts at western
auto, slot car racers, clamp on roller skates, pea
shooters, spit wads shot through a soda straw,
paper soda straws, peanuts in a bottle of coke,
driving a car on the rails of an abandoned rr
track. rear deck in a car with speakers, selector
switch mounted under dash to select which speakers
to use, coal oil tank at corner grocery store,
buying individual slices of bologna at corner
grocery store, bologna and crackers, parking in
downtown on saturday afternoon just to see who
passed by. whoa, i could go and on.
