Title: Must be gettting old
Post by: alvin stadel on 2020-02-06 20:28
I find it somewhat amusing when I see or hear  things that had a total different meaning then when we grew up.  Tonight on channel * 8 news, Billings Mt. they were advertising for a "corn Whole"  fund raising competition and what really blew my mind was that one of the main sponsors was " Slick Woody's"' I thought what does the judge do, have box of towelets  to wipe them down at the end of the game.   some times I hear things and see things that make me think I just don't belong here anymore.  After asking a friend I was told it is a game they play with  bean bag and a board with a hole in it.   take care, Alvin

Yeah it took me a while to be comfortable with the corn hole game to.

You Montana guys, lol. I think the funniest take-it-the-wrong-way signs I saw were actually in Montana. Back in the day growing up in Mass., we use to call the"easy girls" the town pumps. Going thru Montana about 20 years ago on my way to Vancouver, BC, I was passing convienient stores that had the name Com n go (not sure of the spelling) To add to that laugh, was when we pulled in for gas at a gas station/convienience store combo that had both names together........Town Pump   Com N'Go
I may have to ban me for this post
