NFR Humor (No political jokes)

Non-fishing related
Some folks think I'm a Rhodes scholar. Well, I started young. Jamma, Red and I used to use Rhodes frozen bread dough when we fished for carp. We chose electives too. One of us thought it would be a good idea to add strawberry syrup. Now that's class!
 
Well i think it is humorous in a nostalgic late 70’s to 1982 era pnw kind of way -overalls the usual attire… sent to mt oldest daughter today on her bday. Wvery year I send some old photos and call her leaving a lounge lizard version of happy birthday recording… eye roll time but funny to me and expected by my daughters on their birthdays.IMG_3984.jpegIMG_3985.jpeg

A Volkswagen Thing! That’s a blast from the past. I don’t know anyone who owned one. How did you like it?

It drove like it was governed… i hid weed in it accidentally or forgot when crossing the Canadian border… strip searched the car for 30 minutes that seemed like hours and bullets were sweated… the greens were flushed at the first roadside restroom we could find.c. 1976

It had vinyl lift out side windows. A rubber bladed fan that plugged into the cig light plug for a defroster. Trippy multicolored shag carpet. It was noisy. Martha bought it. It was hers. The front window folded forward. The wipers were moved back and forth by a lever. This was better suited for a much drier climate than Vancouver, Washington. A upwardly mobile Daktari hippiescque kind of thing. Fun for a while. After we traded it in for a 71 MG Midget which was a way different kind of fun, but cost a me a small fortune to keep it tuned. Way beyond my mechanical shortcomings and patience level.

Just 2 fingers left in a 3 finger bag of Acapulco Gold the standard for the mid 70’s in the pnw then…Panama Red would have been more of a problem cuz would not have even made it to the border . I would have been driving 20 mph on the north bound freeway trying to get there.
