steve,
me and dave are fine and will be fine!. the closest fire is 30 mins drive away from me. 173 people so far counted for. it was cold enough to wear long sleeves today - the winds are the problem now. some fires are still burning and most were a case of arson. my more distant high school friend passed away today... he chose to stay in the house. anyway, this thread is for guessing what gord's singing! |

Ron - I like that... I had allways heard and tried to abide by the first 'old saw' part - but your addition of... -'and Satan was in a really bad mood' is a hoot - I'l remember that one. I will rue the day when my 3/4 ton Dodge Ram gets a flat tire on one of those beauties - 60 PSI, and heavy....... turning rusted pneumatically-tightened lug nuts and worst of all for , simply stated medical limitations as to weight, I'll be in a bad way. Thank goodness for cell phones ! At least the tires aren't split rims.....you ever see one of those fly off the rotator-style bead-breaker tire remove and reinstall on a rim job ? Whe a new learning employee saving for college does not yet know what split rims are, and the boss is on vacation, that young naive boy can have his head taken off...literally.., by a split rim from a semi that stopped at the Conoco I worked at in High School. I survived, but was told I was lucky, The driver chose to tell me afterwards, full of malcontent sarcasm - you know the type - amused and full of cinicism by my naivete on split rims, .... afterwards he said 'Son, those are meant be to done in a protective cage - that rim'll take a body part off of you, or two A HAHAHAHA. I lost it, rare rare thing for me, and yelled at him ' you mean you knew I was in danger, and din't tell me ? You son of a bi88!!!' Yeah, reel funny fella, while you watched me try to use a conventional pleumatic tire buster.... and it did fly off.... AND THEN Not a week later an entire battery, charging on the quick charger was going, with the (then) removable caps tp let excess heat and bubbling gases dissipare during a hot charge - the guy that set it up had had a three beer lunch and feelin no pain, he forgot to do the battery out in...... the 'battery shed', away from workers for just that reason. That was still in the day when you had to add electrolyte acid to all new batteries, they came dry. When it blew up - right smack dab in front of my face, and I mean everything totally in shards and acid skyhigh, right 2 feet from my face, my overalls were soaked in acid which I immediately took off, and ran to a co worker, and said ' do you see any acid on my face ? I don;t feel any...probably will in an hour..... and i went and rinsed my whole head in the OSHA required emreg shower head that USED to be required, but there turned out, despite my face not 2 feet from the explosion, kneeling at same level while cold-tuning a VW for elevation....it was truly miraculous I had not a single burn. Thats why old real 'service stations' with smiling speedy service, check your oil sir ?-type service long gone..... wore wool coveralls or pants and jacket - its acid resistant. Learned that from my Dad who had the same thing happen to him when HE was saving for college lol..... Ron, you are most welcome for the ....sympathy.... and I hope my tails of ruination got a chuckle from ya ! :biggrin: |

They did find that it is hard to stretch titanium, though - moden orthopaedics wins again ! If you wish to avoid my blabberty in this post, where I compliment the players, and acknowledge the need for minimum errors on my part, and why, please simply jump down to OK BACK TO BIZ ! LOL ROF Thanks Lynn, I needed that. Puts a simple human mistake in perspective. But, conversely, when a person puts themselves in a position of being the one to declare right or wrong, I fully understand that that person has to be held to a higher standard of minimizing errors; its the nature of the beast. Because, and I know this is no revelation to you Lynn, but you've offerred what is in fact the first humerous and non-bullwhipping post, even though in reality the others have, on a deeper level ,still been meant to be no harm intended, with imbedded humour predicated on what now are long-standing relationships in the game - where we can criticize for all appearnces to the casual observer, but supporting that dialogue is a long-standing good humour, ....its cool.. - all the posts in general. I do particularly appreciate your post especially , Lynn, it has had the most 'feel-better' quality to it about a simple mistake of mine. However, I do understand all the others, and they are well meant and are founded on long-standing premises of understood foundations in good natured humour, so no harm no foul by me being called out on the carpet; as I have assumed the task of saying yay or nay on others thoughtfully submitted songs, that carry with them, depending on the person and how far their heart is out on their sleeve, that persons self-esteem in essence being submitted as well. My mistakes, in the greatest distinction I know of between their human error versus mine, is best illustrated I think in this concept: assuming we are all on a level playing field of skill , which I believe we are, but when they err, they do not cause others grief or potential hard-to-swallow recrimination, as opposed to when I err, quite likely DO cause occassional sunken esteem for a moment here and there; not usually, but by definition my mistakes DO effect other people intrinsically, there's don't. And there is the best reason I know, accept, and undestand as the basis for why I have to be more careful, more double-checked, and frankly be da88shure about my call, as it stands to effect others. No other approach would be considered thoughtful of me to assume. So no real harm at all, but the sting when they are declared wrong, and further justifiably indignant if I call them wrong in error of mine incorrectly, versus their sumbissions rarely at all, by definition, hurt others, and unintentionally make comments that pertain to their skill which I NEVER intend, but it can be taken that way by my poor wording. You know, over time, I do know that when you consider this many posts, pushing a thousand; and how many views, around 13,000; correspondingly the number of players has progressed inversely to the numbers "in the audience" over time, expressed above. I firmly believe that, as much more than a compliment, but a FACT, that this progressive dwindling of players which has pretty-much stabilized currently, and we are enjoying the highest level of play than ever before. Moreover - while everyone has different strengths, THIS group has an uncanny ability to solve the hardest clues I can come up with wthout resorting to 'too simple of predicates and words so vague' as to be ubiquitous throughout Lightfoot's and anyone's music -words like 'the, it, she, he. them, go, gone, etc etc' you know what I mean. I guess what I am trying to say is, this group currently, always missing a few come and go faces that share this quality I'm speaking of (OhLinda , Mandoann,oTJ, and a handful of others that come and go which is cool) combined with the core regulars I generally assume will be there; I've observed over time the 'thinning" if you will has been in part....some have left over time for simple level of interest, and many other reasons not based on insufficient skills. But I do think the ones that did stay (survive lol) are, broadly speaking, of the highest skill level in this game's unique type of skill required. No disrespect or diminishing of players who've departed largely for good over time intended whatsoever. No doubt many of them have highly refined skills in other areas; or while posessed of this game's skills, there interest simply has not been held for as long as these loyal players have. But the fact I'm dancing around I say now, despite fear of unintentionally offending anyone, is that you guys in here, plus some of the come and go semi-regulares, are of the most distilled and boiled-down HIGHEST skill level this game has ever experienced. It is ironically very challenging to come up with clues that challenge them ! I believe the regulars and semiregulars, the players we all know, out of just under 2000 corfidites, in this game are, dare I say it, the creme of the creme in the necessary skills for this game. Other members of corfid are either not interested, yet capable of the skill level the game is at now, or have other equally impressive if not greater skills, or are simply less frequent posters that enjoy reading more than interacting. Anyway - my compliments guys. And to referee simply the game rules applicability (not overlapping in any way Char's *real* authority) I simply say yay or nay based on the game structure I assembled. And it is incumbent upon me to hold my mistake level to a strict minimum, as stated because my statements directly effect others. OK I'll stop there, having caught myself in a circular beg-the-question logical phallacy. Here's to ya guys ! OK BACK TO BIZ Q353 .... again, where .... Don Quixote "In vain to search again, where no one will hear Does Q353 .... again, where .... = DQ ? - YES ! Congrats Lynn- three on the x-files back-to back ! I'll post it. |

LOL Well, I have such a looooong way to go to become a "Lighthead"!! :rolleyes: I read the answer to Q351, and although the lyric posted was immediately familiar, I could not for the life of me recall ever listening to a song called "SFAWN"!

I sympathize with both of you. Did you see the 'split-rim' story above ? That'd be my funniest car-related story of mine. Funniest story of mine in general, in the midst of otherwise dire straits - as jj said when he was on the exit ramp no lights at dusk, this is on the slim light-side of the Mountaineering accident. No therapeutic release in this post for me, just an actual funny moment in the middle of the maelstrom. There I was , as I have told some allready the whole survival story, but not just this funnier moments in this scene, ....so there I was, hanging upside down, impaled on the Krummholts Tree's iron-like branch spiking upwards. The spike was strong enough to hold MY WEIGHT AND PACK - lignum vitae-like wood. I was a sight on what locals call the 'Methusela Trees' - completely denuded by wind (the tree lol ) and arctic weather at that elevation. At timberline, having just fallen though a perennial snowfield, through a relatively rare, deceptive on top of - combination of bowl-cirque & 'frozen cresting wave' snow overhang; not a true glacier that moves, carrying rocks. Those are typically on 30 -60 degree slopes,(except at melting toe of the snow, can be near horizontal). But this was a beyond-vertical overhang that looked (only beneath aaargh) like a wave cresting just over, and frozen in position, beautiful actually and blue most commonly - but this was a disintegrating snow construct - just my luck..lol . Actually, it was deceptive powder on top- near flat, with no indication of the absent structure underneath the curling-over mixed degenerating layers of snow and candle ice. On my VERY unlikely little trip all the way through the snow when my crampon caught on one 'shoe and I 'stubbed' and fell through the unanticipated snow characteristics, with far too much powder to hold that temporal shape, were it not for the mix with that felt like powder,corn snow (skiers worst 'road rash is from this), powder again, and interspersed with almost candle ice, and more powder, with a thin frozen 'glasse' underbelly of that beast is what it fet like as I plunged as dead-weight upside down through the layers. The candle ice layer(s) I felt as I fell through - loosing my highly refractive prism'ed powerful prescription 'glacier glasses'. Thankfully I had a backup pair of clear prescription glasses in my pack, and a pair of vented ski-goggles - no help upside-down, hanging (I had to laugh at myself, and more in a moment, as my crowd of Verizon network people stood by like the commercial on cell phone infrastructure. Funny thing was - it really worked out in the middle of, or on top of - nowhere ! Anyway, the candle ice was more indigenous to weakening ice on a river, and the whole nature of the plunge all the way through the snow field crest was a very rare occurence of layered snow characteristics, deep into disintegration. So... there I was, looking and feeling like and idiot, oblivious to the rather acute situation on what was holding me upside-down, from shock. I was hanging upside down stuck ON/BY the tree as it were, bemoaning AND laughing at my circumstances, feeling no pain from shock (yet), and it occurred to me, as hung there, with (I hesitate to express it this way, forgive me, but its part and parcel of the story) with blood running ankle to head upside-down, and I felt an odd warmth before I realized it was blood. It oddly did not concern me, but I pragmatically calculated the time of the team to get to me, versus getting out on my own. More of that to come, with what would make a GREAT cell-phone commercial ! IN no panic whatsoever, as one of shock's characteristics can go, versus screaming in fear and pain -( I was 5 miles out through rough alpine terrain and c 6 ft. of snow on the mild slopes. In an abnormal calm, I thought to myself..."I wonder...since they put up a cell-tower in Estes Park (roughly 6 miles away from the tower by line of site through a saddle in Storm Pass,) I wondered if I could call out on my cell-phone, at least get a tone ? I also had a licensed VHF radio too, used primarily in my work ...out there...danged if it had only been workmans comp on a work day ! lol, but I did not even think of it in altered state) So I get my Motorola (I swear by them - they raised the bar in the industry some years back with 6-sigma plus reliability and DOA after purchase) get my Motorola out, and think to myself "not a chance"....rang my folks number on the edge of RM NAt'l Park - my trailhead I registered over across the valley from the Park Service Long's Peak Station - the registration mandatory for anything considered a climb, or in 4th class terrain or higher..er...I was) My folks' house - my 'trailhead' thankfully was at 10k ft. ! Damned if I didn't get a tone on the Motorola ! I laughed to myself (as jj said for life's little or big slaps in the face).....rang their number....no response - no doubt both were indisposed, or since they were on a party line at the time, their unique ring would often evade them audibly lol.... so I hung up. And instead of ringing another number to tell the Park Service of my circumstances and plan - they would have correctly argued with me - likely to no avail in my shock state... - normally - I'd of none better to stay put and wait - especially wth contact made - and my ability to calc coordinates from the topo - from my line of work. 15 years earlier I'd been on the park's search and rescue team. All that experience was for naught in shock - with, in my ...state...utter obliviousness. I ignored that, 'cause I estimated their 'turn-out time plus time to where I was, and I hate the helicopter bit - ...because I was too embarrassed duhhhh stupid stupid, so casually I blew that idea off, knowing it would take a team 4 hours to assemble and get suited up. Chopper back to base was not a given at any time, as was commony the case, and up to me, and find me....and I thought how stupid I'd look, hanging upside down in a denuded wind-shaven gnarly-old methusala tree...branches like iron spikes... and I casually though (shock) knew, I'll bleed to death before they got to me.... I knew I'd twist all the my leg inside out by pushing on a hand-stand upside down with my treking poles and snow baskets, took me several minutes to gain purchase on something..... And then did what at 229 pounds - 35 overweight, plus a 38 or so pound day and a half pack,I'd never be able to do other wise - I did an adrenaline and shock-fueled handstand on my trekking poles, and pushed my self off of the impalement (noting with mild shock curiosity that my leg looked inside out....thats odd, I thought,) then whipped a tourniquet (femoral artery tourniquets in the leg are...very uhm....noisy to put on..and crank...) had it on, and righted myself in the deep power, hard actually on crampon'd snowshoes, and walked out on a course I should not have been able to plot, on my USGS topo, calc'd the declined magnetic bearing by inversing polar-to-rectangular coordinates, then vice versa with correction for some extranneous factors, and walked on out. Passed out three times on the way, got home, still in shock, and hollered up stairs to mom and dad "Hi guys, I'm home, gonna shower OK ?" (ok) - and in the dumbest shock -induced moment of the whole thing, tightened down the tourniquet, and took a shower, cause I wanted to be clean and presentable when I bled on the E/R room floor down to town.... thats it. WHAT AN IDIOT ! IDIOTE ! Thats my dumbest funny-to-me (at the time) case of what life can slap you in the face with, as jj put it ! duuuuuuuoyyyyy. The rest is to graphic... but thats the funny part... . Well Ron, the better part (or worse) of my response had little to do with your response, but jj's laughing at what life can slap you in the face with is what made pop out.... I appreciate the humour in that...... Yea Ron so my next set will be a safe N 40 old-regular set, until I get my axles greased and light a shuck for anothet set of 'Special Addition' clues ! Onward McDuff ! |

I 'spect you're familiar with em ..lol - One insider question to the outside - when you guys put those pictures together, that fit the song so well, - where do you get them ? Nature one's would be rife on the internet, but a silhouette of a woman standing in a late afternoon oblique light 'movie golden hour' window, with pearls and a set of, say those fancy silver woman's hair brush etc on the , the armoire ? no thats clothes - what DO you women call those make-up desks ? Vanities ? - Anyway - where do you/how do you get images like that - do you stage 'em with models, etc. ? Cost would skyrocket in that mode. My grandmother had a beautiful combination wall unit - Armoire, er.. make-up desk, and I think a bureau. I allways wanted to get Merry one of those wall units - good quality hardwood were well over $2,000, and my brother snagged and tagged Grandma's too early upon her passing -in poor taste, and broke the agreement of picking circles of interestingly - only the women - sat in a circle - and one by one picked estate items. Tradition ? My wife came out of the circle session, swearing she'd never sit in one again - she cried missing my grandma, while the others were literally tearing WWII Kimonos out of each other's hands ! Sad.... Merry took my only 2 requests - a trunk in the basement locked and I only had a sentimental feel for it - I remember'd looking at it, locked, as a kid - thinking it had a treasure trove in it ! Well that I wanted for the memory, and the mystery, and just one more thing - the contents of my grandfather's center desk drawer. If you women EVER want to know about what makes a man tic, and his real likes/dislikes, LOOK IN HIS CENTER DESK DRAWER,I'd loooked - as a kid, and then the 'Estate dissipation proceedings' - for me, that drawer - old wire rim glasses - a Professional Engineer's stamp, a few gentlemen's pocket knives, numerous 'bright and shiney metal things - as my mother and Merry both called 'em - they knew I loved those shiney metal things for gifts, the pocket knives, shirt pocket antique slide rules, circular beamn's arc flight calculator's, and OLD FOLDED MAPS !etc in that drawer that always fascinated me as a kid - I wanted ony the trunk - and the contents of that drawer - less important papers, etc. I found the idea of the session to initiall be fair, with people of good character going into it, sad, but fair, but otherwise nice aunts and cousins, sister's in law etc - man o man - some turned vicious and would take double turns, lie, etc. nabbing materialistic value for some, seemed to override sentimentality - w/o an eye for dollar value - that went out the window except for Merry and my mother,the others turned into a conflagration ! Ask me sometime about what turned out to be an amazing trunk I found in the basement I gott - appeared of no value except sentimental, don't know why, what was inside would start a 'treasure map and obelisque' - tween's movie ! BTW - you're forum language studies are progressing real nice...lol.. but you must specialize - picture posting expert lingo, song abbrev's - that transcends all branches,uhm, geo places, lol - at some point you'll need to specialize - or go polyphonic, which I suspect would be a breeze for you. I'll post both of your wins ! - sorry to ramble - memories flood sometimes when you hear a certain word or see a certain image... |

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Nice reading about those memories of yours, Steve. It made me remember some similar. I remember wire-rimmed glasses in an old desk drawer. I wore them a few times. They could have been my Great-Grandfathers. There were also some pocket-watches, and just a lot of cool things a kid likes looking at. I remember seeing 'treasure trunks', unlocked. One had old Christmas cards, one had ropes. We did use a rope before to tie a saucer onto the back of a snowmobile. Don't know what became of the things that were in the house. When my oldest son was one year old, my Dad told me he could have a fiddle that had either belonged to his Dad or Granddad,... anyway, when my Dad passed away, my sister took it and I think it disappeared. ... I mean, I think she sold it because I don't think she has it anymore.

Sometimes, if I pour out a heartfelt memory, or something hard to write about (pleae notice the Mountaineering story of mine above) in order to tun it into a humorous touch here and there, it does great help to me, and I try to make it compelling and interesting to read, without any fabrication or stretching the truth at all, it in turn becomes special when a thoughtful reply like yours and others comes in. I'm sorry to hear of the passing of you father. I enjoyed reading the similarities you found in that drawer - made me remember the two pocket watches of my grandfather's in that drawer too!. I never met him, as when he passed, he was 1,500 miles away, and only 56. I was only about 6 months old. I'd never have remembered anyway if he did. Thus making that definative drawer of his so fascinating to me - my Dad's , Dad wow ! I could see from the content where many of my father's endearing proclivities cam from , too ! Holding a handful of 'pocket items every day at work' of my Grandfather's, it was also almost like meeting him. Certainly the drawer does not define the man, but the contents from my experience, DO tell a definative PART of a man's interests, or how he fed his family, or what he enjoyed as hobbies, but most often, I find the things we spoke of, pocket knives, pocket watches, occassional road maps, business cards by the dozens - which tend to be things a man would put on the bureau-top mini 'valet' box where he'd put his wallet, main watch, pocket change, a few business cards, glases etc., but when that little 6" x 12" "valet" over-flowed, the overflow went in his desk drawer top center. This is only from my experience looking when allowed to, family drawer's, often after they pass away making it all the more ....connecting. Not surprisingly, as you'll see in my CP page public profile, I collect the things we spoke of finding ! I collect pocket knives, pocket watches, and maps ! Surprise ! And I was just this evening, talking briefly with my mother, trying to calm her over a frightening test she has tomorrow at the doctor's, she mentioned to me that Dad's desk was found finally in a warehouse of a moving company, that was from when they moved from their perched mountain ridege-top home, down to the Town of Longmont, in the flatlands, close to mdecial care of theirs and the hospital. Somehow the desk was missing from the mover, and they finally 'found it' - 6 years later ?? Well I was elated - because all the type of things we spoke of. you and I, were of course in his center drawer, too, plus work-related trinkets from the space program - NASA-. And....as unlikely as this sounds, Dad told me about 9 years ago, before he lost the ability to talk, he said "son. when I die, be ABSOLUTELY sure to look in the lower right bottom drawer; its locked, and the keys I keep here". The keys got lost in the move, but I am finally this coming weekend going to solve the mystery of what is in the drawer, likely paper work for his estate holddings etc, insurance, but then again, his work was highly classified, and he could not speak of many things in it, when 1/2-$Billion dollar rockets were launched with $300K - $400,000 payloads - like Voyageur, Viking, Mariner etc interplanetary spaceraft, and no doubt -secret- payloads such as the occassional defense platforms for orbit- and I am sure many that were said to NOT have been launched MAY have been, who knows ? Decisions were in the Nations defense interest - you recall Star-WARS - the plat form to orbit ? Cancelled - international relations.... but did it go up ? These and more likely simple things will be found this weekend ! I love a treasure map trail, even as an adult, amounting to simply a desk finally found ! Its better than the movies ! And I idolized my Dad so much, it will be like hollding things in my hand that he did in his ! Well, as I so frequently talk in this thread onnly - as most often I only have time to process game submissions, Its my only outlet for daily anecdotes, and more substantive stories of mine that I hope are of interest to the players. I rarely hear back on them, and so often I pour my heart out in them, its a real treasure to have you read what you did and respond ! THANK YOU. And - if you want a hair-raising read - read the falling through the snowfield mountaineering story. There are some laughs that I never could express that way until lately ! Thanks again Patti- and I enjoyed immensely reading your memories and memorbilia ! |

Char: Sorry 'bout that chief. In short, it was quite simple - I scanned up and down from where this list started, and with recent nature of impaired vision, I equated erroneously two different posts of yours as one and the same. The Q358 post, and the combo Q360 and Q364 post I simply mistook for one and the same. My apologies. If I were having difficulties like this all the time - I'd re-consider my voluntary role as 'host' of sorts, no more and no less important than anyone else or delusions thereof, oops (except you - we all know you're the 'Boss' :biggrin: ) . Perfectly innocent error, I am sure sorry, Thank you for pointing it out, Char. Relax and have some fun ! A little interaction keeps it "human" :) However, on that note, I will also, as I believe Ron is alluding too very politely in the post after your er....annoyed reminder, but helpful nonetheless Char :), Ron's on the money as usual. So I'll re-consider what is germane and what is not, and the length thereof on my departures from pure gaming ! I had cause to write too many long replies/stories that, while they had a minor quality of being germane, they were far too long for this thread - they belonged elsewhere where people aren't trying to play a game ! A few strings were played on things important to me, but just like we are not playing duckpins in here, were not having Reader's Digest either ..lol.. ! Roger that, Houston. No offense Patti - I truly enjoyed our exchange - My replie(s) were too long is all, nothing pertaining to your very thoughtful and appropriate-in-this-thread/very kind shared thoughts ! Thanks ! OK then Charster Does Q358 ... shove = 'Clouds of Loneliness' ? - You bet - Congrats, Char. :clap: :headbang: I'll post it in the X-files :biggrin: |

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
my reminder was no reflection on your posts/memories..just didn't want my entry getting lost..
;) my maternal grandfather never wore a pocket watch but I do have his old pen/carving knife he used when in the Timmins bush and finding us grandkids branches to use for roasting marshmallows in the firepit on the beach. and for killing the odd snake that wandered too close to us..lol i have his wedding ring from his 50th wedding anniversary ceremony and a plaque from the prime minister and certificate from the queen. i also have a few pieces of 'fools gold' brought up from the gold mine where he worked. and most important - i have his name - Charles.. i have my paternal grandmothers hand made leather wallet with her initials on the front. and i have many old, old pics from both sides of the family-many from italy and some tintypes. i have no idea who most of the folks in the older pics are. certainly some dour looking folks tho! |

I wear a 70-something year old 'canteen-watch' in my snapped-tight Railroad Vest pocket. Dad came across in the Korean war in.. Korea! in a 'sell anything/anyone' stores - they had stopped and put ashore in a shallow keel Rube-Golberg'd very small ship inteneded/built to patrol the inland rivers for genuine modern pirates ! by a simple village, along a river they patrolled for the 'Pirates' - no joke ! and he said he entered the hut/store by gunpoint first- a sad state of affairs there, that 'women' were actually sold in there - 10/12 years old and up , so sad. But, aside from the depravity which sickened Dad when they offered - what to me is a 'little girl' for sale to him.......he was so saddened for the girl - 11 maybe - he wanted to 'rescue her' but regulations prohibited non-military personnel as cargo by the Navy. Nevertheless he saw 2 lucky finds after waving away the man proferring the girl to him - he wanted to knock that guys teeth down his throat he told me, but those under his command were with him, and well you know..... Anyway - he did find the usual war-scarce items - soap, TP, chocolate of unkown character lol..even ladies' nylons for port hony's (frown) or to bring home to wives - stockingS made of nylon were a petroleum-based martial-commandeer'ed commodity in the Korean 'Conflict'/War in the US. His amazing find I'll pass on to MY one child (27..lol), Mamie -on two items -a 'canteen' leather-covered Swiss pocket watch dating from around early WWII in neutral of course Switzerland - civilan mandatory service for all 'army' -issued watch for men, don't know what they issued to women...- who had to serve as well. The two finds that Dad could bear being in their for, in a depraved situation, included also a "find of a lifetime" he found Mom an incredibly-beautiful deeply carved 'bas-relief' (artists in the room ?) teak chest, stoutly built and thick wood - I believe mahogany in the carved areas - much softer wood than the ship-worthy teak, in a mixture of lighter-colored wood in the carved area.. Magnificent. Even the handles on the end were wood-and part of a 'peasants-dwelling' scene - the handles were the "arches" in a bridge carved on both sides ! Absolutely amazing, And it still shines -it became Mom's hope chest after the Korean War - Dad's second hitch as an officer - and truly a gentleman. I got the watch which (!?) pleased Dad so much to give when he could no longer talk, Parkinsonian, and he handed it to me to give to me with a big old smile- and gestured with it to keep... I wasn't sure - so he gestured to mom to give it to me in his way, the canteen watch - it has a leather outer case that completely encloses it except the face - where a long-time missing old 'celluloid' clear view was at one time, pieces here and there. It really does look like an old western wool-covered canteen !- to dip in the stream and evaporate while you rode would cool it (a real canteen that is...lol metal/wool), but the watch....Swiss made, and it STILL WORKS 4 me ! Incredible, It had an alarm- mechanical - that does not work. I dare to risk carrying it in my Woolrich 'Railroad Vest' its been called for over 150 years - you can still by them by catalogue or on line - I have 3 darker colors to roughly match what I'm wearing - and I snap-pocket the watch in - and like you said - Dad's pen knife he pocket-ed to diddle with his Pipe, scrape the bowl, clean it up, etc. When I got it, I swear it even smelled of his pipe-smoke, when he passed. Such treasures I could never sell...they mean so much to me. When Mom passes (she had a scarey test today for the big C), Gord forbid, as I am executor to her will and codiciles, and I am really scared for her - my last link to my family's past; & she's willed the 'Teakwood chest' -as she always called it, to me she announced last week, scared. I never asked for it, thought that to be in poor taste on a Romantic item. When in her ALR residence - you do NOT stub your shoes even near it ! She keeps as her 2nd most precious memory from/of Dad' giftings - 1st of course her wedding/engagement set. I'd better stop - I'm doin it again ! Back to entries in gaming ! Thanks, Char, your...kind words made me feel much better, for my letting such deep/warm/hard/better now memories pour out as they do at times. I am still resolved to not do it in here, but I appreciate your warm words offering of your memories - so 'Char' ('Charlene'?) is your feminine given name version of Charles ! Ihave to admit Dad's pen-knife was never used in the timmins bush land, not to kill snakes with..lol.... but a warm memory of Dad all the same - him and his pipe - a single image together in my mind always... but your items - no matter the nature of, but the memories, right ? Thats very cool...all such memories - and this weekend I get to OPEN Dad's lower right bottom desk drawer - and center top both locked, he gave me the keys before he died, I was instructed to open them after he passed by him in barely readable scratch. I'm proud to look at that canteen watch, and use his pen knife. Thanks for lettin do this long heart-warming (to me lol) and ...er..longer posts. Back to Biz ! Back to Biz ! |

His father was born in Park City Utah, before it was a ski haven of course. He (my grandfather) lived in his father's miner's shack. There was no school there for some reason, and he self-taught himself up to about 12th grade level - and had his own affinity self-taught for math..... He grew up to be first a mule-skinner for the mines (true, I never knew what that was before Dad explained) and then progressed to be the first unofficial school-teacher there. He then met my grandma , she lived in a shack on the hillside too, she had two dresses, one to wear, one for Sundays, or when she was doing the wash. Then he formally taught algebra and trig in a real High School. And Married my Grandma. She went from a small shack to when my grandpa died, a fine, fine house he had built after WWII, everything just beautiful in it - the way she always dreamed of. I managed that believe it or not for Merry, until her health and all went south and she died. But I was proud to have provided for her and my daughter, in what I remembered my Dad saying that it was not the trappings and house that mattered, it was the heart inside that made the home- mom would finish that statement.... Well, we had a home. Then Grandpa started with the Postal Service, and went cradle-to-grave with them almost... he made all the way to, first: a Postal line worker, then a Postal Inspector through a seriesof promotions over a few years,then into the war and through WWII intelligence, then said (by Dad)to have re-instituted the postal service in Japan after the Hiroshima and Nagasaki sort of took the breeze out of theirs....but his real assignment was to set it up so there would be tight handling of illegal trade in the mail, Dad said. Another thing I did not understand 'til Dad explained - Postal Inspectors were pistol-packing 'cops' - like earlier Elliot-Nesses-type raids on waregouses, etc, They used to bust illegal shipments of any nature, and set-up snags, and stake-outs etc.- and got some pretty big-time crime-ring leaders. Then he made it to Deputy U.S. Postal Inspector, no. 2 man. Pretty impressive for a self-taught mule-skinner ! It was said when he died at 56 - at the office - said to cough once, then thunk, head down on the desk - heat-attack. Packing heat on a chest-draw holster at his last gasp. They made my Grandma feel bad by telling her it was all the 'famous in the family' raised cinnamon roles - I can taste 'em now. She never could forgive herself from that thoughtless crack someone made. Anyway...yes - i wish I could have met the one-step from a frontiersman ! Parkinson's had not set in on Dad yet, he was all about smokin his pipe on the deck, and invariably, tapping the ashes out against his boot sole lol.. The fiddle, fill, light, smoke, relight, tamper, relight, smoke....lol. He said one time after the characteristic pause when you asked him a deeper question, allmost any , really, like the pause in CRT (when newbies clap alone) if you did not know Dad - you'd ask him a question 'where the answer needed to be right', and he would characteristically pause, up to a full minute, puff on his pipe, looking straight at you, a quality in itself he said you could define a man by sometimes -unless they were nuts, he said- if he'd look you straight in the eye ( w/o the 'evil eye' lol). If you knew him, you'd wait that full minute, while Swiss-crafted-like mental components with Scots stubborness and perfectionism would give pause..... most who did not know him would throw their hands up and depart.. but family and friends knew.... sit... wait.. puff puff, eyeing you, then an ever-so-perceptably smile, and he'd answer you're question. Never forget that stolid, scots, sometimes sanguine temperament - I don't believe he ever shouted at me in his LIFE. A quiet man. A genius - I say w/o bragging, him, not me.. And a good judge of character. He liked my wife immediately in the first 'bring her home for dinner'. She was scared stiff, she thought he was like a legend or something - the way I talked him up to her, and my mother - always impeccably dressed, hair ..?..cuoffed ? is that it ? Well they told her to dress casual for the 'steak cookout' - one of Dad's defining activites - cookouts. Best pictures of him looking sideways and smiling... He wore everyday jeans and his everyday chamois shirt, suspenders, and his vest.... guess where I got my dressing habits from ? lol. I guess you guys have never seen a pic of me. Fashion be da88ed ! But Mom - woops - she put on Mrs. Ward Cleaver outfit -full-dress (?), pearls, gold earrings etc. Merry gets there and in slacks and a ...?..printed blowse ?.... flowers anyway, she had a cow when she met Mom, she actually curtsied ever so slightly.....and then asked where the 'washroom' was , and almost ran for it... I followed, Mom knew immediately what she had (my mother) done wrong upon seeing her, Merry was the most beautiful woman I have ever seen.... and she wanted to make a good impression so bad she was sick... Mom changed in to pants and a sweater I think for Merry, and when Dad yelled in his usual "Lois, have you burned the F.F.'s - and said to Merry rounding the corner by the dining wing we built on together - Oh! er... Hi there MmMerry (he stuttered as a kid, and when he got embarrased he would still ever-so-slightly) He didn't get embarrassed at work too much. And she was fine with Dad right away - He hugged her....rare for him...I had told him she was the one.....anyway - FF's buned yet ? lol... That meant he was done on the steaks, and she (Mom) was forgetful as usual and yes burned the fries.....lol.. At that point Merry laughed and she was fine... just fine... Fine as Fine Can Be...... I better stop there, Patti - didn't cover everything, but I don't think I can take more good memories lol... |
