Well if it wasn't on Nickelodeon or Nick at night or in reruns, I probably haven't seen it...I have nothing against black and white:)


OH, it was OUR house with out color. My dad was a salt miner. We could not afford "fancy" stuff. We got our first TV off of my uncle. He was a TV repairman. My dad paid him for the parts to fix a broken one.

Back to the original post and the comments that followed. Put it this way, I'm just not a big fan of the fake outrage these stories bring out, that's all.

OH, why does that not surprise me? What ARE you a fan of? What "fake" outrage? Who was "outraged" ? You also don't seem like a fan of fun either. That's OK. You are ENTITLED to be a fuddy duddy!! HAVE AT IT!

HEY did you hear what happened to the Beaver? He has 8 kids now. Guess you could say he kinda got "caught" in the "parent trap"!!

Yep, he mined salt in Detroit for more than 30 years. He mined coal in PA before the war.

Actually, in all seriousness. It never occured to me where salt came from or that you had to mine it. I have been watching the show Coal on TV, it's a pretty interesting glimpse on the job.

You also don't seem like a fan of fun either. That's OK. You are ENTITLED to be a fuddy duddy!! HAVE AT IT!

Yeah, some salt is mined. He worked at 1100' down. The vain of salt was 30 FEET THICK, over 400 miles wide and ran from above the Canadian border to Louisiana.

The mine he working in closed several years ago but has reopened again.

I wonder which is worse, the guy wearing his pants too low, or the US Airways employee who thinks they can tell people how to dress?

------------------

That's about at lame as the security guard at the Minnesota Twins game scolding a lesbian couple for engaging in a brief kiss at Target Field. "I saw you kissing that girl, you can't do that," the guard said.

When Campione responded by saying she could kiss whoever she wanted to, the guard allegedly replied, "Well, we don't play grab аss here. Here in the stadium, we adhere to the Ten Commandments."


(FWIW, I've read the Ten Commandments cover to cover, and "grab аss" isn't in there once.)

------------------

The guy was wrong in resisting the police, 'cause that got him nowhere, but I've seen the video interview of his side of the story, and his calm and reasoned depiction of the events doesn't exactly present US Airways employees as being in the people business. He was so not over the top and that his story is actually more believable than is US Aiways', especially since the US Airways story changed slightly two or three times before the official spokesman too control.

If someone told me to pull my pants up (although I'm at the age where most would tell me to drop them lower <snort>), or button up another button on my shirt, or whatever, I'm not sure sure I'd react all that compliantly, either.
