  1. Both were there at different times. That building has been empty too long. I am not a fan of the Punxsy restaurant's food or prices the one time I was there about a year ago.
  2. So many stores over bought. Then things changed then they went under. Seems like Ames Kmart etc owners may have done that. I expect Doller General to be sorry in the future. Watch the next ten years. Someday healthcare will be the opposite.
  3. How many were actually able to get 1.77 gas? Hubby said Blinkerlight sheetz had a line down the highway. Be careful everyone near a Sheetz!
  4. His work is junk also. A new roof started leaking 3 months later. He refused to fix it. Wheelchair senior and newly heart surgery senior woman. Got real contractor to fix it.
  5. 60 years ago my parents sometimes had my big brother burn garbage. He didn't pay attention and it got away from him. I was 4 for 5 and had no idea what was happening. I went outside to see what the noise was and there was a firetruck. The fireman asked if I started the fire. Don't know if he was joking or what but that memory is scorched on my brain. Somewhat pun intended. Seems fitting for the feeling I get every time I think of it.
  6. I remember Trump being behind Fauci and having an unusual expression like he was seeing something and letting the rat roast himself.
  7. The dogs will smell fear and know which ones. There are people taught body language enough to pick out the thieves. Thought the store had enough security cameras at least to get the bigger items like tvs that aren't paid for.
  8. How many of you watch the Simon's cat cartoons on YouTube? They are hilarious! I am bored online. Anyone have any other sites on YouTube or elsewhere I should checkout? So much bad news is on here, even though we do have to keep informed, I would like to lighten it up a little.
  9. Ask YouTube for animal cams and you will find several that show birds, deer, turkeys, etc getting fed everyday. The camera is on 24 hours a day and animals come in and out.

    So cute. Wish I were physically able to care for pets. Thanks for sharing.
  11. Had a Democrat father and Republican mom. Because of the dickering, I have been independant all my life. Can't stand either party. Neither gives us anyone I can stand.
  12. I have heard horror stories of neighbors from friends and family. I go out of my way to be nice to the neighbors we know. I figure equates to good karma, showing seed, whatever type you believe in.
  13. Anyone against guns and the constitution should be kicked out of the country, no matter who they think they are!
  14. They used to have a Sunday buffet we went to several times. Knew one of the chefs.
  15. If they could do all that in 2 days, why does a bridge take 2 years?
  16. I dont know. We knew someone with 2 cats when our 20 yr old cat died. Hope you find someone. Sorry for their loss of furry family member.
  17. Honeysuckle is out I think, but dont think it smells like melon.
  18. If an area cannot be known for jobs, at least people hear we exist this way. Punxsy for that darn groundhog and us for bigfoot.
  19. Northsouthgirl was running some meetings. I think they fizzled out in DuBois, but she might still go to the winery. She is the most knowledgeable person I know about coupons. I hit or miss. I have gotten some 2 liters of pepsi brand pop for 24 cents each in the past. That is my best. Have a wonderful day.
  20. I have been told that Du Bois made all kind of things and was a city that could survive by itself. Had the icecream, beer, battery, all kinds of factories. It also had a time you could quit a job one day and be working at another the next. Would love to see that kind of place here once in my lifetime.
  21. You made me curious so I found these: http://pages.prodigy.com/altoonaarchives/rdar01.htm http://www.examiner.com/paranormal-in-pittsburgh/the-wreck-of-the-red-arrow http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,890046,00.html http://www.gendisasters.com/data1/pa/trains/altoona-trainwreckfeb1947.htm a book at http://www.borders.com/online/store/TitleDetail?sku=0741453819 http://traintalkbloggers.wordpress.com/2010/08/21/wreck-of-the-red-arrow/
  22. Didn't have the heart to plant any this year because of last year's disappointment. I hope that by next year it will be alright to plant them again and have no problem. Does anyone know whether the land would be ok 2 years later? Thanks.
  23. Some of us would also love to hear them. Would you share the ones you have? Only those interested would bother reading them.
  24. Just a little off topic-hope you don't mind, what were those washcloth type things you could put in the wash over and over? We had one and it turned brown by the time I stopped using it. Actually, my husband at the time was bedfast, and his aide started using it as a washcloth. I tried not to laugh. Are those still around or what are they called to order online? I cannot stand long times to look. Thanks.
