AN OLD GEEZER TEST

[Patzt]

What a fantastic test!

I got a very high score!  HAHAHA!


I sure remember Butch Wax too.  My brother used it on his hair.  He had the "flat top" look.

[Symphony]

*sigh*

And flat tops were always more expensive.

I think it was $1.25 for a regular; $1.75 for a flat top haircut.

8. How was Butch wax used?


HEY

Hello Butcha,

It's great to hear from you.

As an old guy, I can tell you everything you want to know about Butch Wax.

It actually worked pretty well in greasing chains and bearing on your bicycle, but that's not what it was sold for.  

It was sold for applying it to your flat-top haircut and making your hair stand straight up and flat. It was really a pretty cool haircut, and it was very popular as a short style for many years. One simply got a fairly small amount out of the jar and rubbed it in. I might add it was very hard to wash off, and it still worked in the rain.  

Love In Christ,
Tom

I worked years for someone else So that I could retire. I dreamed of sleeping late And sitting by the fire.

I dreamed of long vacations, Enjoying stage and song. But, let me set you straight on that concept, It is simply wrong.

I did junk my safety glasses And the work boots that cramped my toes. But, the rest of it had a mind of it's own And this is how it goes.

My wife had been thinking of retirement And had plans of her own. She had spent much time with the kids But, now they are grown and gone.

We sold our cattle and horses So we wouldn't have that chore. I poured concrete over my alarm clock But, I still wake up at four.

I get my eyes checked on Monday. Maggie gets hers checked the next day. I go for a colon check on Wednesday And pass my wife going the other way.

I have a dental appointment on Thursday. Ann goes for a test on her heart. Friday we go get prescriptions filled And browse a while at Wal-mart.

Saturdays we just stay home And try to get the paper work right. We can't take any overnight trips 'Cause we can't see to drive at night.

Restroom confusion keeps us out of church on Sunday And we really do hate that. There's nothing wrong with the restrooms, We just can't remember where they're at.

We don't need to plan next week, Just make sure we can drive. And not forget where the hospitals and clinics are. We'll need them to survive.

So, don't build your castles too high, my friend, While strolling through the clover. This is a typical week in retirement And on Monday we start all over!

LOL, so true.

Don't foreget the running around for the kids and grandkids. "Gramps isn't working, he can do it."

[Shylynne]

The sad thing is i knew just about all of them. My grandmother and dad and his brothers still talk about the old days and all that. So does that make me a geezer...i should think not. LOL. I should hope not considering i'm still 17

Joshua,

   Brother, maybe there is an old geezer in there straining to get out.

No that's just what I get for being brought up in a rural farm town in the South.

Hi, Gramps!

I'm not sure but I think that makes you the oldest on the forum.

Hey, I got them all but the Kennedy pony thing.  But that question and the Tony Bennett one are not that old.

Here's one:  What came in a sealed plastic bag with a color capsule inside that you had to break and mix with the product before using it?  And why did it come that way?
