Re: iris talk: OT HUMOR
We still have a Model T in the family , she's a 1926. Every night my
dad would put the empties on the running board , the old German Shepherd
in the back seat and we'd rumble up the road to get popsicles for the
kids and a bottle or two of Molson Ale, those were the days..... Now
thirty years later we still pile into the old car when we visit my
father and drive up to the corner store. Dad is still dedicated and some
how finds the strength to crank start the old beast. The dog is now gone
but he's still there in spirit , this was the highlight of his day.
Long live the Model T
